:( Fed up!! Nothing but work and thrift. I need to DO something!!

Evening all - been battling a migraine today - I always seem to get them when the house has fallen apart! So no HW done today (shame really!!) Did take lawnmower in to be serviced though (it doesn't work, so a service is cheaper than a new one!). Tomorrow the weather is supposed to be slightly warmer (if still blowing a gale!) so I'll be cleaning and tidying in the house (with NO BREAKS!!!) and I need to pick up the greenhouse and contents that the wind blew over last week. Don't know if I'll save any plants, but need to get sorted now.

So NO posting tomorrow, no lurking - just getting on with things and NO Putting things off!! well, maybe just a bit!

Sunshine - why not treat yourself to a nice bubble bath, candles and a favourite old movie - perhaps even a facepack and a cheap bag of popcorn!

Bread - is it worth making some dough tonight, leaving it in the fridge tonight to rise, knocking down in the morning, then fridge to rise till after school run or are my times too long?

Yeast needs warmth to work with the sugar and water, so the fridge is a definite no, no, but just cover the bowl with a clean tea towel and leave it on the worktop until the morning.

I put some dough in the BM this morning for teacakes to be read at 10 am, however I then forgot it, and just did it around 6pm, nu then the dough was trying to push the lid off the BM. They are just proving again now and will cook them shortly. DG

Well we have not long returned from the indian, I really shouldnt have gone concidering Shingles, wasnt to many ppl in there as a week night so it was our little secret.Have had a wonderfull day rounded of by an equally wonderfull evening, great food, good music and the hugest cake I think I have ever seen for a b'day .The boys took it in after picking it up from the bakers this afternoon.So I have been totally spoilt from start to finish, All I can manage to do now is pop my new slippers on and stretch out and watch recorded Emmerdale and E'enders. Thank you all once again for the birthday wishes.

I don't see why not? Mayonaise will do if you have nothing else, just doesn't smell that nice :rotfl:Add some slices of cucumber for your eyes and keep them shut for five minutes. try and stop the inner dialogue or at least focus it in something positive - i usually plan the garden.

awwww uolypool seems like you had a great day xxx

not a lot going on here, work, HW, sleep, all runs into one lol

Going out with DSD for pub tea tomorrow so thats a bit out of the usual work sleep HW thing

OH still getting used to new job, am not sure he likes it so am being very supportive, he is giving it 3 months so another 2 to go.

Work is very busy as usual, the next 2 payruns are going to be fun taking into account the bank hols, the others are not prepared to do any extra hours (I am the only full time wages person) so that will be fun...NOT. I will not let it get to me as it did over xmas...that put me on ADs and am not prepared to up my dose!

OS for tomorrow is make my lunch, tackle ironing mountain for an hour before work...or maybe half hour :rotfl:hoover the place (this is the time I looooovvve living in a bungalow) and try to clean at least one window, depends if I get up at 5.30 or 6.30

hugs and best wishes to all xxxx
