    Has everyone got their ingredimentos for Shrove Tuesday? Or are there no fellow !!!!!! out there?!

    Carpet in bedroom is being cleaned and vacuumed by DH, and I am going to throw out some dead flowers and do some washing in a minute.

    Then baby stuff out of attic.

    We are happy little !!!!!! in this house...

    as a pudding pancakes are quick and easy...

    as a variation they may be savoury, like a tortilla...

    or a cannelloni

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Photogenic I've been Money Tipped!
    I need to block ebay :o I've just bought "Anthea Turner Perfect Housewife" on DVD...both series :o:o It was cheaper then buying it from Amazon/Play.com etc so kind of :money: and it used to spur me into doing the housework so hopefully it will work again and I'll get flying properly instead of hopelessly fluttering ;)

    Now I really should go to bed, declutter my to-do list to some paper & try to get some sleep. Hopefully tonight I won't get another 5am wake up call...and I still have no idea what it was :(
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Good morning everyone :D

    I did loads of flying yesterday. The RoD is done. Took hours but done.
    The loft clearout is done too. Still loads of carp to ebay or freecycle but we are getting there.
    I feel as if I am getting somewhere with the decluttering so I will be able to clean properly soon.

    Plan now is to vac everywhere, change our bed and tidy the kitchen. Maybe iron?
    Off out at 11 and not back until teatime.

    Have a great day :D

    Morning everyone.

    DH's party was fantastic! The "sounds of Weller" band were the best £300 spent in a long time. The bar bill came in under £200 (most of it was drank by DS1). I'm so glad I made an effort to save for this event. Knowing I didn't have to worry about money made it alot easier. Now to save for DS1's 18th and DD1's 21st next year.

    DH is asleep so I'm going to get dressed quietly and go and get one of the cars.
