Managed to do everything except there was only 30 mince pies and the oat & raisin cookies did not get dipped in chocolate.

But I did decorate my mini christmas cakes and sort out a 50 prize tombola (including folding all 250 of the tickets).

Tell me about it!

Fundraiser went ok. Not brilliant, but not too bad. Brought some LO cakes to work today. Sent DH to work with some too (they are usually quite good from his work and they donate some money once or twice a year when I send cakes) and I've sold some to my brother by offering him a lift home from his mates later.

On to the next week of jobs now:

Tonight - shopping, pick bro up, clean house and put some washing on
Tomorrow - take charity a/c's stuff down to new accountant
Wed - get stuff ready for holiday packing
Thurs - collect god daughter's puppy from my SILs (if I have time) - then go out for tea
Fri - buy crab, prawns and bottle of wine for Mum & Dads anniversary present and drop off
Fri - 6.30pm leave for Hotel by Manchester Airport!

Also got to:

- Sort out policies to go with bid and get it signed and sent off.
- Sort out Gift Aid registration.
- Ring friend about correction to family friends' gravestone.
- Ring butchers to confirm Christmas Order
- Order repeat prescription so its ready for when I get back
- Write to executers of family friend requesting breakdown of income whilst the estate has been sorted out
- Take coat back to Next (only had 7 weeks and the seam on the arm has come apart and some stitching at the front has come undone)
- Sell as many raffle tickets as possible for our charity

MIL cooked the other half of last years christmas turkey crown yesterday - it was delish, but a good chunck left so will be making a couple of meals out of that this week.

Tonights offering is Turkey & Chorizo Jambalya.

Hope everyone had good weekends.

What does that involve MRN?

Mortgage_Reduction_Novice

Pretty much turkey supreme (mushrooms, other veg and cream sauce type of thing) with puff pastry topping.

MWC...I really wish I was superhuman! But to be honest I am exhausted and really looking forward to my holiday and then the Christmas Break.

I just know that if I don't get these things done - no one else is going to do it.

I will definately enjoy my holiday no matter what - I have to get away when I have time off or people will just make more demands on my time (especially my cantankerous Dad!)

Thanks
