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

Same in my house - if I don't do it, it doesn't get done!

Glad I'm not the only one.

And thanks for the Turkey ala King recipe - sounds good!

Tell me about it!

On to the next week of jobs now:

Tonight - shopping, pick bro up, clean house and put some washing on - DONE
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 - DON'T NEED TO PICK PUP UP NOW! YIPEE
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 (just Disciplinary Policy to sort now!)
- Sort out Gift Aid registration. (HMRC site won't let me print off form - will have to check at home incase its work computer)
- Ring friend about correction to family friends' gravestone.
- Ring butchers to confirm Christmas Order DONE
- 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 DONE
- 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

Quite a bit done including ringing sick charity employee and to see when he's coming back to work (next week so all good there - been off for 6 weeks with infected toe).

Tonights tea will either be Turkey Cottage Pie or Fish, Pasta & Sauce (depending on whether DH can stomach turkey 2 nights running!) :rotfl:

Forgot something very important off my to do list:

Check all holiday documents; and
Get Euros

On the MSE/MFW front, charged phone at work yesterday and today I have got my laptop plugged in (brought it do some charity work at lunchtime).

Hope everyone is ok.

What?! That's pathetic.

Hi MRN

I know what you mean, but really its more unfortunate than pathetic really - here's the story...

He had to have his toenail removed and it got infected as he tried to do too much too soon (probably would have been 2 weeks otherwise) - he is a gardener for the charity so if he can't get his steel toe caps on its no good. He's also diabetic so really has to be careful. He's been climbing the walls, really wanted to come back to work.

Well in that case... we'll let him off!

I know it sounds a bit mercenary, but at least we have only had to pay sick pay - which is a good job considering the charity bank balance at the moment.

Just lost a long post.

Only things crossed off my list are:

- Accounts stuff to the new accountant (looks like he's going to do them for next to nothing for us).
- Confirmed that I want change done to our family friend's gravestone (£400 to change 1 number!!!!!)

Doing the Clubcard voucher exchange on the way home £10 of vouchers to buy me £10 of frozen party food and A new Hand Mixer as I killed mine at the weekend.

Turkey Cottage Pie was delish - leftovers were good for lunch.

Fish, Pasta, Sauce and stray vegetables tonight!

This week is disappearing fast - just what I need.....

Totally went pear shaped last night.

Was up A&E with mum till 9.30 - she had a fall and the paramedics insisted she go up to hospital. She wan't hurt, just stiff after being stuck in one position on a cold kitchen floor for over an hour.

So, no packing, no tea and no charity stuff done - but at least mum is ok.

Oh MCI, you poor thing and poor Mummy MCI! Hope she's back at home, keeping warm and the stiffness/bruising is easing a little.
