Thanks to La E for starting us off.
NTBY - hugs for the weekend and I can't believe you leave tomorrow, time does fly.
Good luck Compliments - fingers and toes are all crossed. Its making typing quite difficult! :rotfl: Let us know how you get on.
Hope work is as good as can be expected Stitchy.
Packed our bags yesterday for our bike trip which we start on Friday. Didn't look like a lot but I don't think I'll be saying that when I am slogging up the hills.I haven't looked at the weather yet but I am preparing myself for lots of wind and rain.
Today I will:- [STRIKE]Walk to work[/STRIKE]
- Check bank balances
- Check surveys
- Homemade lunch
- Charge mobile
- Submit covering letter and CV for job
- Participate in study (£4 for 30 min, not bad)
- Try and find manual for PC game we sold on Ebay. Thought DH had checked that it was all complete. Any tips on what to do if I don't find it?
- Round up the last few things that we had forgotten for bike trip
- Big night of cooking to make sure that nothing goes to waste while I'm away
Have a great day

Morning all - looking fab here again today. Can't wait to get the laundry on the line! This is the beginning of the second week of the Easter hols, which have been been fun but chaos (and cheaper than I'd anticipated!). Hope the weather holds.
I hope those of you not feeling great, for whatever reason, have a decent start to your week (well, and those who are feeling sparkly too, but it's easier when you're feeling up than when you're down, so extra hopes for those who are down).
My list for today:- plan menu/shopping lists for the week
- checked banking
- check for surveys
- do some batch cooking
- started baking bread
- make soup for lunch
- get the laundry out to dry
- try to harness the energy of the various teenagers who are here - they can be very useful!
- pace my reading - have not long started the Stieg Larsson trilogy (MIL lent them to me), and want to do nothing but read! If I do that, nothing else on my list will ever be ticked off
That's it for now - hope everyone has a good day2011 wins: 2 day gym membership, film download, NETBOOK!Debt at LBM: [STRIKE][/STRIKE] [STRIKE]26/1/11 = £4733.26[/STRIKE] 11/6/11 = £3759.3840 -
