....thats all I have planned over the weekend so far....

'So far' being the operative words, taxi! We all know what you're like:rotfl: . Even when convalescing you manage to cram more into the average day than I manage in half a week, and I'm supposed to be fit and well:rolleyes: .

Well done on getting the accounts sorted. I'm always the same with certain jobs, keep putting them off until the thought of them weighs so heavily on my mind that I feel really daunted at the prospect of doing them. And then when I'm forced into getting on with them because I've reached a deadline or something I'm amazed why I didn't just get on with them before as they never seem half as bad in reality as they did in my imagination. I could procrastinate for England I'm afraid, so I really admire the way you keep soldiering on whatever life throws at you.

Go to one of your many friends' cafes and have a relaxing day tomorrow, do you hear?;)

Take care
Imp

hi taxi - so glad to see that the books are done! Do you fancy popping over and doing mine? Just to stop you getting bored over the next few days

No, didn't think so!

I hope you have a relaxing weekend. Enjoy x

Thanks you 2....you know the answer to that one Hypno....Imp you've described me to a T....Can I pick your brains it's a friends birthday on sunday she owns one of the cafes I go into and gives me free tea and really cheap meals....I'd like to buy her something nice...not too expensive any ideas!!!...I know she'd like anything but don't know what to buy her...she's moving in a couple of weeks...

What about a rose for her new garden. My friend bought me one called "thank you" when I helped her out. There will be one with an appropriate name for birthdays/friendships without costing the earth.

If she doesn't have a garden, a houseplant would be a good alternative.

That's a good idea...it's a flat shes moving to...so could be a houseplant...I'll have a look tomorrow.

Well done on getting those accounts out of the way! :T

For your friend: have you got any houseplants you could take a cutting from but buy a really really lovely plant pot?

Hi LA unfortunately not...just a yard with weeds!!!
I forgot to mention before I won't be quiet this weekend as DD wants to do a car boot...so will be turning my house upside down for stuff tomorrow evening....I've asked DD to help me as she already has stuff sorted at her house....then will do it sunday ..so no rest for me...
Any ideas how much I should charge for a steamer....footbath....one of those bubble things that go in the bath(never used and still boxed)...I have loads of WWs and Slimming World recipe books...how much?....not done a car boot for years...

EVENING ALL....as you may see from my sig...I have started to save for my tax...I already had £20 in there and have decided to put £100 p/w away towards my tax at the moment as I hadn't saved anything..then...perhaps this will give me a better idea of my true budget...One of my major debt points is that each year I never have any money saved for my tax so have ended up putting it on the o/d or ccs...so really do need to change my ways.I have put it in my web saver so get a decent amount of interest on it..and when sorted I will also set holiday/rainy day budgets and ISAs...so I don't get myself in a pickle!!!

*vanessa*

sliming? maybe slimming, lol
