Hello All!
I'm finally here again after so long! Now that I am working full time (almost 2 years now!) I don't really have a lot of time when I get home from work. DH has PTSD and says it doesn't bother him but when I look round the house ... it certainly affects his motivation. It's a bummer when he can't work and I'm supporting the 4 of us plus a puddy tat and a bunny on my meagre wage but we are getting there.
I'm on 2 weeks holiday and am determined that by the end of this week my house will be a manageable one again! So here goes

1 Phone council re nasty letter that we got on saturday ... they want £350 by today and I don't know what for but we got a demand letter so need to sort this out tomorrow!
2 Take DD1 to her first dress rehearsal for the school musical on wednesday! (and it is insect day here too!), (must remember to buy tickets tomorrow!)
3 Get DH to finish tidying up the front garden and start on the back if the rain ever stops!
4 Get the tins and newspapers out in the recycling boxes! I cannot wait till we get blue recycling wheelie bins ... I can't lift the boxes when they are full (OA in spine and 1 leg) so a wheelie bin is much easier for me but our council are pretty unhelpful if you have an OH, regardless of the circumstances.
5 Speak to local councillor regarding the forms we received to get permission for second bin to be used. DD2 still wets the bed so we need the permission to use the 2nd bin, even though we only use it periodically (like during the last winter when it took them 3 weeks to empty our bins cos they found the road too slippery (even though it took them 2 months to grit it) and I managed to get to work 20 miles away, only taking 2 snow days in the whole winter.LBM - August 2008 - Debts then - £33390 :eek:- 2nd LBM - November 2009 - Debts then - £18500:mad:
Current debt levels: OD £3860, Loan 1 £6091, Loan 2 £5052, Parents £260, Total £16133 :eek: As at 01 May 2012 - 51.69% paid off :j

Good morning all! :hello:
Im going to really struggle today - Ive gotten into a routine of doing the bulk of my cleaning (the big jobs) on Monday and Friday when Im off, so that Tue-Thur I can do the smaller/easier jobs when I get home from work.
Today however, I have to view a flat at 9.30, which I booked when I hadnt realised today was an Inset day...so I need to bring the kids :eek:
OH looked at my car at the weekend and noticed that one of my tyres is COMPLETELY bald! It has no tread whatsoever - so I neeeeeeeeed to get that done today too, which means Ill be sitting in the garage for god knows how long.... with the kids - Whats the bets they turn into Satans offspring....!
Soooo, Im up early (This is early for my day off....especially when DS doesnt have school!) and am going to whip round and do as much as I can before jumping in the shower.... Anyone for HHC??? 7:50 - 8:20???
