Not for meI had to work thru it, 9 hours in a crazy busy taxi office, my poor voice!
Finished at 4am, back in today at 2pm so just sitting around in my pjs til then! Have put a wash on and opened up the windows to get some fresh air thru the place. Lying on the sofa with the dog watching 'Kindergarden cop'

So much to do!
I want to go and do the kids room but I can't catch up on the X factor from there!
H is expecting dinner when he gets from rugby with DS but the fridge is bare. I need to find something and then do an internet shop for tomorrow, save me taking the kids to the supermarket.
Then they want to go swimming and I've got a surprise for the kids booked this evening. We're going to a museum of buildings tonight for a special trick or treat. From what I gather, they've dressed the buildings and put people in the houses as well so the kids can go and knock on the doors and be frightened!
So my time for flying should be now really. But I need to watch the X factor! I could do some decluttering of my wardrobe and the dusting in the master bedroom I guess. Glad I have an extra hour!
So glad this thread exists, it does give me a bit of a push.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Morning all. I think I've posted earlier this week but I can't really remember. I do know I've done all the cleaning anyway. Today I've got one load of washing out on the line. This afternoon we've got to shift the washing machine outside ready for the new one coming tomorrow. The old one has been getting louder and louder and the drum feels "wrong" now when I spin it so it's definitely on its way out.
DD1 coming for roast dinner.
Hope everyone's OK. I've read stuff but I can't remember anything.0 -
Thanks toots, just need to hope I can squeeze my knockers in it! I hate buying online just incase... Will be the most I have spent on a top since before the kids were born! Before that I wouldn't flinch at spending 10 times that, scary!
Anyway today I've decided to come with DP to his club as there are plenty of people going with my friend so not worrying too much. Sat in a warm youth centre drinking coffee and a few games of air hockey then I MIGHT have a look for festive gift ideas. DPs dad has booked a holiday 6th-21st December so he wants a list off the boys asap and I need to sort what we are buying them - clueless!One day I might be more organised...........

[STRIKE]Morning[/STRIKE] Afternoon all!
Think I need to get some clothes ready for college tomorrow. Meant to be going Brantano today I think but I really can't be bothered. Lazy day todaySavings £8,865.22 £/15,000 Aiming to save enough for a house deposit.0 -
lil_me that top is gorgeous, I have bought from them before and have a similar kind of thing with a corset style middle bit and I adore it. I thought it was pricey but believe me they are good quality. Plus it is so unique.
Good start here today,.. *waves* hello all
Got up before half 8, well half 9 with the clock change but hey. Spent some time relaxing with coffee and crochet and have finished this weeks studying and also cleaned out my coal shed. It has needed tidying for ages as during the summer it was a plant pot dump and now I am struggling to get to the coal. Not any more. I now have neat stacks of paint tins, plant pots, a mess of plant frames and tools and a nice neat pile of coal and easy access to it. Yay!!
I am getting a bit anxious I soon need to top up my heating oil so that is a big expense to fill although I do not have gas bills and do pay for it up front it is still a big expense when you are on SSP. I need to fill it before hospital so I do not come home and struggle to keep warm so I think tomorrow after my pre-op I will need to ring round for quotes for heating oil and coal.
This afternoon I am trying decide whether to relax and crochet or do a bit more study. I might do both.
Also have a bag of pumpkin innards to sort out. Going to take the seeds out and roast them off nom nom..
Ok, have a good day all
Love Hugs and Spoons all round
