    Hey all,

    Thanks for your suggestions and kind comments...:A

    Today I got woken at half nine and my mum and dad toddled in making up my fire and I even had a coffee made for me too. That is such a luxury when you live on your own!! :T

    They then went off to A$da and I got myself woken with the coffee and then sorted out two new jumpers I had ordered but were too small and not thick enough for my liking so they are wrapped to be returned. I also signed a letter and got it sorted out ready to send and de-clutttered a pile of leaflets and catalogues etc into recycling/fire depending upon info printed on them.

    Had some hot soup and freshbread for lunch and am now comfy with my coffee and crochet ready for some serious racing action. :j:j:j:j I will be cheering along Ferrari mainly but tbh I don't care who wins if it is a good race.

    List...

    1. Write Christmas cards list/cards
    2. Make file of recipes and throw out old magazines
    3. Organise lappy files
    4. Start turning granny squares into a blanket
    5. [STRIKE]Do freebies hunt[/STRIKE]
    6. Organise freebies into gifts for chrimbo
    7. Burn piccies and documents onto discs for back ups
    8. Spend ages working out what to do with £5.50 of Tesco point vouchers..
    9. Work hard on being nice and happy and cheerful!! WIP :rotfl:

    Hugs, Cuddles and Loves

    Polly I'm fine thanks, just fed up it's raining when they forcast it to be dry this afternoon. Never mind, I'll get the bedrooms dusted later and hope it is dry tomorrow morning.

    Just going to do 15 minutes comparing Christmas prices and then off to watch DS2 squash match

  • Hi Flygang,

    back from a beautiful but rather soggy remembrance service, and now dried out and lunch decluterred.

    Plans for the rest of the day.

    Prep dinner
    S & S kitchen (DH made lunch - need I say more?)
    Supervise DS and homework
    Ditto DH and expenses (or they'll not be submitted for months)
    Large ironing mountain
    Large sock pairing mountain
    Church website
    Tubs into loft
    Tub out (Christmas presents)

    OK - HHC at 1.30 anyone?

    Moam
    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Who has nicked my rolls of binbags?

    I have sorted half the junk in my room in the hope of finding some of my beautiful carpet.. I have a holdall of pre-pregnancy clothes I am hoping some fits.. she is nearly 15 weeks after al!! I have some that is off to CS or ebay.. so I will do pics later.. I can do listings through the week while feeding the baby. Maternity stuff bagged waiting to be stuffed under the bed.

    Baby bag packed for next weekend, my bag I've made a start on. I've put the bed sheets away and got out the new winter hats for the children and found 2 of my belts.

    just feeding her now then I'm having a cuppa and I hope to get through the rest.

    ooh.. hung out loads of towels, reloaded both wm's, S&S in kitchen..

    2 lots of stock on the go - chicken and lamb.

    Leftover rissotto decluttered for lunch

    All ironing done and put away tidily

    3 lots of WM out on the line attempting to dry including dogs blanket

    Chair sold and collected for a very good price and now have my space back in the LR at long last and has freed up the area in front of the radiator so should feel warmer in here from now on

    Fridge wiped out and raggy wilted bits of veg used up in stock and pie filling for later.

    Have stretched a chicken into 1x broth with chicken strips, chicken risotto with leftover broth mixture x 2, now carcass is making more stock, some leftover meat gone into pie filling leaving a leg and a breast to use up at some point

    what else can I make with this - curry? pasta bake? More soup? Let me have a think for later....

    Oh, I just wrote a huge post and lost it. About to go out to Remembrance service now.
    Boddy, Hugs and prayers for you and your mum. I am thinking of you. I know that we can't change things for you but I hope that knowing that we care and are thinking of you at this difficult time may help a little.

    Tha ks for the thoughts and hugs toots, DK, mudbath and anyone else I have forgotten. We have had long talks, true confessions, Nytol, lavender, a huge pack of info to go off to banking ombudsman and lots more to do later. I have to admit to being rather frazzled and shattered but DS1 is going to prep roast chicken etc for dinner so we can eat after church. He has already been with me today.
