13 Moons part 2 - Freebird & Frugabulous

Lula-Hula

Mmmmmm tortillas for supper & now drowning myself in a bottle of rose while watching Euroawful whilst DD cries " make it stop Mummy please" :rotfl:

Funny thing is she hasnt even seen the real acts yet - that was just the intro :eek:

Bleu ? never was fan really, but the good thing is I've started on the paperwork & have printed my Killers tickets - 2 copies, one to keep at home & the other to hide at work in case I lose the home ones.

I think I have too many tickets but having checked out ebay - seems like everyone else has too

I'm now going to Google lapdancing & Dan29 to see where it takes me ...

Lula-Hula

Noooooooo DD pressed the forbidden red button & is now seeing the lyrics & singing along - in between bouts of hysterics, I swear she hasnt touched my wine.

Souk08

Love Blue and love Eurovision. On t'cider tonight!

Lula-Hula

Yay for Blue - great job just a shame they were followed by a bunch of unforgettable gnomes on aciiiiid.

I'm on my last glass of rose now & DD has been scared into silence by the fearsome cheese emanating from the tv.

So far I reckon Hungary, Italy or Germany will win.

More wine required now & paperwork will have to wait until tomorrow

Souk08

Hungary were great and did I mention I love Blue!

Lula-Hula

Well, I was close - Italy in second place.

What we need to remember is that UK is too damn cool for the Euro :cool:

I certainly dont have any cds from Azerbaijan in my collection .

Lula-Hula

Ok, somebody silly had a coffee after 3pm & is now wide awake

I've put the insomnia to good use though & have been scything through paperwork. I confess to a fondness for my home filing system; although it consists of many coloured files & folders that live in and around a basket on the floor under the pc table, there is some logic to it.

Some time ago I came up with a colour coding system & kept every category in a separate folder ie one for rent & council tax, one for utilities, one for the car stuff, one for each area of finance etc etc. Too much & too many :eek:

Having now got a lot of my stuff organised on-line & by throwing caution to the wind ( ie only keeping the previous years, bills rather than the previous 5 & realising that cross contamination rarely creates a hazard in the filing department ) I've managed to streamline & simplify all home related stuff - eg rent, council tax,all utilities, media services, insurance etc. all into one folder

I'm about half way through & tomorrow need to tackle the finance paperwork _pale_

Do I need to keep the quidco drip fund bank statements that go back to 1992 :eek:. How long do I need to keep closed accounts ( as in old Barclaycard, Capital One final statements showing balance cleared) stuff for ?

Will I ever get to sleep tonight & will I ever get up tomorrow ?

Eyes closing but fingers keep typing ..... ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

fedupandskint

2.51AM :eek::eek::eek:

Better watch that caffine intake, or was it the combo of eurovision and wine?

I had tea and eurovision and took ages to get to sleep too. Must have been the late night cheese intake :rotfl:

What you up to today? I'm having a combination of cleaning, gardening, exercising and revising and cooking. Not all at the same time I might add

See you later

Karmacat

Blimey Lula! Thats bad .... I can't even be cheeky about that I'd be properly zombified today if I'd been up at that hour.

In my quest to declutter, I finally opened a bottle of cider brandy that I've had for *years* - erm, I liked the taste, and I think I drank too much, my stomach was very unhappy with me - but at least its through me now Rose wine would have been better :j

Lula-Hula

Morning campers :hello:

Back again having been fuelled by another bowl of caffeine.

Ha ha to late night cheese fedupandskint :T:rotfl:

I rarely drink caffeine after 3pm but when the decluttering mood takes me I'd rather just keep going until I stop making sense.

Karmacat - sorry you 'lost' your brandy hope you're fully recovered now.

My plans for today are to complete the 3 day task list -

Finish the remainder of the laundry - one load on & the next will occur once I've managed to untangle DD from her bedding, not in a hurry though as I like peace & quiet in the mornings :shhh:

Complete the paperwork clearout

Plant out the leeks - got to be done before full moon on tuesday.

Hem the skirt I savaged a couple of weeks ago & sew some poppers in between the buttons of a lovely monsoon-via-ebay dress I wore to work last summer; before realising that it gapes around the Daphne & Delores area. A lot.

Ah well, the boys enjoyed it ... but they're not getting any sneaky previews this year .

Right, I can feel those little brown beans boiucing about in my veins so am off to get that paperwork stuff done.

Back later ...
