  • On my way home again after a long half day of shifting boxes and whatnot. I'm glad it's not me driving because I can barely keep my eyes open :D apparently the LL wants to repaint the flat, I hope she does it after I move in so I can move boxes around and stuff :o I think it's about time I ruined my sleeping pattern again, need a nap when I get in!

    Still, some forms done, another eBay parcel posted, stuff is slowly getting done. Need to start decluttering my bedroom next... :eek:

    Is he doing the 3 peaks? I did that last year to raise money for a Cancer Charity.... Well done him! Is he going for the 24 hours? We did it - by 7 minutes!!

    Yes, he is. And they are going for the 24 hours. I think the biggest challenge to the time is travelling from one place to another without getting caught in traffic!

    After promising to do the bathroom in exchange for a lift, DD1 has disappeared to a friends to 'just drop something off' and hasn't been seen since :mad: And on top of that, the boys (1 in particular) are trying my patience :(

    Washing up done, DW on and frog eaten at the docs! I am going to try and catch up with paperwork tonight.

    A quick question on changing energy tariffs with your own supplier, so long as it is not to a fixed product can you move when you want? I am looking at different deals and different suppliers but know that I can get a better deal with our current supplier while I look into it.

    Hello ladies,

    I have finished work now until a week on Monday. Such a lovely feeling.

    I need to do a HHI and 2 x HHC, and sort something out to eat.

    Hope everyone is ok? I'll be back later for a read

    Evening all

    Well DH decided to take me out last night ... big mistake ... been feeling terrible all day ... I know it's self inflicted but yeuch! Hence the normal reason for not going out on school nights!!!!

    Am finally feeling better and going to start doing some of the things I have not done this week ... DH is gonna get a big shock tomorrow! He is getting tasked with clearing out our wardrobe (more like a cupboard!) and taking everything we aren't gonna use to the recycling centre. That is the stuff that cannot be put of fleabay this weekend ... got some packaging to do ... sold some bits and bobs so they have to be posted tomorrow ... the plan is to keep selling on ebay and try and make enough money to pay for the kids pressies for december ... i hope!

    Hope you are all having a good day ... pigpen - I'm glad Squeak is feeling better xxx

    Okay .. here I go ... if not back in 24 hours ... the RoD has swallowed me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
