    Good moring Flyers! I am finally back. Been a hellish 5 weeks with work and hubby off on holiday - very little flying has been done apart from the day to day things, so this week I am back with a vengence.

    Most of the Christmas shopping has arrived, and I know the kids have been snooping so 1 of my jobs today while they are off at school is to get wrapping - but while I am wrapping I am not cleaning am I - quandry!

    I think my hubby might have broken the hoover, there was an awful smell in our bedroom when he did the hoovering last week (after he tried to hoover up a cardigan of mine that had fallen on the floor instead of picking it up!) I may not be able to hoover today :(

    Economy; careful management; providence. Whether you call it thrifty or frugality it all comes down to getting more for your money.
  • Failed miserably yesterday-worked, ate, shopped, watched tv with DD, ate, washed up and went to bed early!!-Just ducking a mule!!!
    Looking forward to cracking on with FR and kitchen today-some bits have been done in the last few days so I also want to
    Cut cats claws (before cleaning floors!!)
    Shred all those reciepts I've found.
    Pay some bags of coppers into the bank.
    Take back the christmas lights that should've been 2 for £15 and they charged me full price for.

    Think that'll do me for today. Going to make DD's packed lunch and then get her up. I'll be back after 9 to tackle my lists.
    Hugs and thoughts to those in need-especially those with BD.
    July grocery- 24.40/220. NSD-1/3.
    Myself, DD, 2 cats, 35 weeks pregnant.

    Hugs for all the early risers.

    Please peeps if any of you have roof problems - get them checked. The longer you leave it the worse the damage and the higher the final bill - BTDT!

    piggers - have you got your guttering sorted yet?

  • Morning All,

    Terribly start for me! By the time I got home from work last night I felt really rough, the start of a cold which always wipes me out! So didn't even manage level 1 :(
    Have come into work today but wish I was still in bed, I doubt there will be much flying this week!

    I hope eveyone else is keeping well and managing to avoid the bugs?
