    one thing at a time!

    Glad you're all sorted today Pippi! :)
  • Eeh gad did I not get back on here yesterday?

    Hmm, the day - picked up car, mailed ebay stuff, went to work, did a bit there, went shopping for lots of reduced veg (neeps, cauli, onions, physalis, tatties, carrots, zucchini, parsnips and peppers) also got reduced bread, prawns and cheese. Bought a dvd *new Will Ferrell one*, watched it last night will relist that on amazon today, then ifwe pay anything its only a 'rental' fee - good way to watch films (if you can't see them for free) - had an early night

    Today - banks - well not great (200 left of OD) but got paid for a bit of that college work £162 - put all of that to CC lucifer.
    Other bank has 50 in it - £7.85 from amazon sales gone in today

    Plan for later when awake

    Maybe if its OK to be out there work on a garden for an hour
    Work on presentation for Friday morning (showing 20 folk around my old research)
    DD to fencing
    Bro to boat - late
    Bake something
    Book train for brother and boat
    Walk dog
    Tidy up a bit
    Think of an easy tea - we're all out and about tonight from early til late
    Write a blog - not written for a few days and I get a bit wordy at home if I dont'
    Keep looking at winter breaks with OH - we might go away for a bit (maybe skiing) over NY
    Keep nagging errant relatives who are allegedly coming for xmas and tell them to get their fingers out and let me know
    Look at the boy childs personal statement for his uni application
    Look at flights for going and seeing his preferred choice of college for the open day in November
    Nag folk who have given me the job to formally tell me when I start - I think its the 16th

    Other than nagging, generally have a nice dfw day, and I hope you all do too!

  • oh pippi you had to say the e word:(. I really need to make a start with mine. Had planned to do that yesterday but I really just spent hanging around waiting; friend still in hospital and bless her she is so desperate to get home.

    So today I must get on Planning is the the top of the list,
    and a beef cobbler for tea:D, with a few other things to do in between.

    Hope you have a good day.

    Wanders off muttering something about having too much to do and not knowing where to start.........."WELL GET THE DAMN LIST DONE THEN":o

    How did it go.........................?:A

  • How did it go:rotfl:

    Well I got the cobbler made

    Made salt dough for the Rainbows to make decordations with. That went down well.

    Friend still in hospital, I would prefer her to stay there until they are happy for her to come home

    Now about that list........ I have just started it, and I am not going to move until I finished it.

    Then on to the ebaying, you shamed me into it you know. I have a box full of books still not sure whether to try amazon, but there seems to be so many on there and their postage is quite expensive and not sure if that will put folk off.

    I too want an hour outside, just need to look up how deep my bulbs want planting.

    You to sound like you have a busy day ahead. What u going to bake?:cool:
    My finances are work in progress.
    Normal veiwing will resume shortly

    Thats really exciting about the blog and the web page!

    I'm okay - bit bleurgh, as you say, but nothing a strong cuppa tea won't put right. Tho I give notice, if anything else nit-picky happens today, I'm running off and joining the circus....
