Not too bad, but must start again at 11:00am. Just hope the yeast works a little faster today: it took forever last week, and I was nearly late for school run...

Cup of tea, one or two e-mails, then I'm off again....

Ok i'm on a mission now and am going to make some phonecalls then tackle my kids room that never got done at weekend.......somehow going out until 3am was more attractive then sleeping in on Sunday! Well its only twice a month i don't have them:rotfl::rotfl:
Half way through shopping list. Decided to meal plan until Christmas. Going to my parents then anyway so don't have the Christmas stuff to worry about. Really am getting myself organised!!

sammiell

thanks i tried the slow cooker last year and wasnt impressed but as i make about 12 puds i think the oven is a good option no aga though:( will give it a go tonight did try oven method a few years ago but oven had a 2 hour limit to not good have a new one now:D thanks samx

List not done yet but I ventured into the pit that calls itself DH's study. OMG:eek::eek::eek:. Whilst my business files weren't in too bad an order....probably shredded a carrier bag full of stuff. The household accounts/bills etc were dire!!! I am taking over DH's job until they're sorted. We [STRIKE]have[/STRIKE] had every tv license since 1991 - apart from this years!!! That's probably in one of the boxes of paper work that's not filed because it won't fit in the file!!!

So far i've got three bin bags of shredded paper. I'm now filling the big blue ikea bags full of useless paperwork and we'll have to have a bonfire. Gas bills back to 1996, telephone bills back to 1994. I don't know where it's all come from because I shredded a load last year.

Have to say it's strangely therapeutic! If it doesn't move it's being shredded (where is stripes:D:rotfl:) xx
