  • Mummyroy - well done to little one for walking - now the fun starts hehe

    Seafarer - go for it - as Greenbee said - get it all over and done with in 1 - hope its the house you want when you get there.

    So much for playing games, DS wanted to go to the shops so off we went, 2 hours later home we came with a few bargains so they are happy bunnies [all from their own money]

    Need a mule cos I can't be bothered to do anything so feel free to fling away at me

    How did you get on, lil_me?

    I made DS2 something to eat, texted friends/colleagues and cleared LR floor. Can't hoover until DS1 brings it back down from his bedroom.

    Going to have a drink and then do another HHC, 12.15-12.30. Everywhere's a nightmare, apart from LR (and that's not 100%), so I'm not stuck for somewhere to start.

    Sticks and coal brought in, fire has been lit. Dw unloaded and reloaded and lunch on. Hubby away for the day so i think i'll crack on with the livingroom. :D

    Our tree was took down yesterday and the rest will be taken down today. I'll be glad to have it all back in the attic, how bad is that. :o

    Wm on it's 2nd load and i should have only 2 lift, mind you i'm sure i'll find more round the house.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

  • Short bird - you're right, and thank you! I switched our lecky supplier yesterday, which I've been meaning to do for months. Today is sorting out my ISA. Tomorrow is my Debenham's account card which seems to have been cancelled even though I think I've got money on it. I'm putting off the mortgage cover and life insurance because it confuses the hell out of me!

    Seafarer's wife - in for a penny, in for a pound! But you might want to invest in valium...

    Lil me, that list is nothing compared to my mums list :D

    I need my lists as it makes it easier for me. Is it bad to admit that I have a master list of all my lists :eek: but 2.5 months to go and it WILL all be sorted by the end of Feb. No last minute panicking in my house!
    You're not a proper list writer if you don't have a list of your lists!:rotfl:

    Am I mad to be considering wedding and house buying in next couple of months :D
    YES!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    :T:T:T:THOORAY The snow's all but gone, so I can use the mobility buggy again. Max had a lovely walk this morning - he'd have liked to go faster, but my buggy only does 4 MPH. Did I mention Max is a Greyhound?:D

    I'm still borrowing Mr LW's wellie boots and ski socks to do walkies though - my feet are so bad with arthritis at the mo that I can't get my own boots on!:eek:

    Listy all but done - just need to give the loo a S&S and put a new fresh-block thingy in.;)

    Afternoon all

    Busy getting nowhere working the whole day through, trying to find lots of things not to do ....................

    Managed to hoover hard floors with a view to mopping next. Hoover driving me senseless.

    Greenbee are you back or have you not been yet?

    Did find time for a screaming match with DS1, he is now in his room allegedly studying.

    afternoon everyone
    DH was in fits watching the Good Life - I'd always aspired to be Barbara but DH thinks that I'm almost completely Margo :eek:(especially when she refused to pay the bit of her council tax for the drain outside her house because it was blocked - stop sniggering Toots I can hear you and hope you have spat tea all over your keyboard:p)
    Dusty I nearly choked:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    helen thats great news about your dad's op = thank goodness he hasnt had to wait long and suffer. You are probably right about it taking its toll - pain like that is very wearing so the op is the 1st step to his recovery - I am sure he will recover well and come on in leaps and bounds now (((hugs))) NO my DB hasnt been he is still struggling with his bug/chest infection as are all of them - I havent seen anyone yet.

    well done to the new flyers - you have all started well - you need to stick with the lists for about a month minimum to see real changes and to help establish routines.
