    Not much chance of catching up with thread so just skimmed.
    I'm in again, thanks to flyladys. Flying today, made shepherd's pie one for tea one for freezer. took DDad to see DMum at care home, took him home after an hour or so. Finished cooking tea, took some down for DDad. Clothes put away WM x2 but forgot to put 2nd load in so waiting for 1st lot to dry. Remembered DD3 needed buns for tomorrow so at 10.30pm:eek: made buns and decorated them with a chocolate button. Not great but will have to do. DW on and just off to put clothes in dryer, but fold first lot. Not half term here till next week so still busy. DD1 got appointment after work so DGC will prob be here for tea. Not sure if to do chicken dinner or HM soup and HM bread.
    Hugs, spoons and sticks to all who need them. x Birthday wishes to birthday bods x

    Hi all, managed to make a ginormaous roast tea, plus delayed birthday cake as we were too stuffed from the meal out on saturday.

    Cleaned out the chickens and tried to clear a bit of the mucky garden. Saw my neighbour who handed us the huge gutter that had fell off our roof the other day into their garden...:eek:.

    Binned off getting the plinth heaters and just bought a little fan heater for £8.00 from wicks, perfect and no stooopid wiring and behind cupboards fixing to do....why didn't I do this months ago :wall::o,

    2 lots of washing and drying done.

    I never managed to get anything listed on ebay but hubby listed about 15 items so thats better than nowt.

    And so begins another week...here's hoping it'll be better than the last few.:think:

    Catch ya later flyers....:D x

    Morning All

    I'm in - thanks to all at FCC.

    Woke up at 2.30 and couldn't back to sleep so got up about 40 mins ago. I've emptied and reloaded the WM & TD. I'm thinking I'll stick some clothes on, walk Jerry before DH goes to work at 5 and then have a quick bath. DS needs to have a bath too and I need to do a load of ironing as we ended up going out yesterday and not getting back until the kids' bedtime and I did no ironing.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Jue

    Morning gang,

    Third one up who can't stay sleep again..

    HHI I think, then HHadmin, then its officially getting up time!

    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.
