    Tomorrow is a work at home day :j Lots to do and not all work related;) Although work is madness - everybody wants everything done by yesterday. Unusually half the frogs have gone down with a nasty virus chesty thing so very light on frogs and completely over staffed. Has meant though we have been able to get a few things done that get neglected and catch up with other stuff.

    I am hoping its going to warm up over weekend. I have a charity fundraising event on Saturday of which I have left my part of the organisation to the last minute:eek: DD2 is away all weekend and its payday tomorrow so busy busy and some of it might be fun:)

    Oh yes Brizz always have plans,always have plans:D

    Just dropping in whilst I can still stay awake - very busy week one way and another. Ended with an office day - uurrgh! Can't say an office is my natural habitat. I dont mind doing paperwork but day in day out in an office would tip me over........sorry all you office workers but I would rather have a day hopping with the frogs, even the biting foul mouthed ones, any day:D

    Back to weekend plans..........food plan, budget plan, declutter ( somebody said it was a FLW but even if it isnt I am going to get a load on Ebay again) and some gardening:)

    In terms of weather its a hideous start to the weekend - scuppered a few plans. Buts its definitely a FLW so will be listing again - have to make a shed load of money this month for one thing and another - thank goodness 2 weeks or so not commuting which will save over £100:)

    Slow slow slow here - motivated but doing too much thinking!

    DD2 is opening her first current account now she has a weekend/holiday job. Despite us always talking about money/banks/spending/pensions/insurance and all things financial I was was utterly dismayed as to how little she knew about banking and how it all works. Walking along High Street of Big Town this morning she said she was amazed how many banks there where and had never really noticed them before. A huge gap in her education and we thought we had it all covered:eek:

    Cracked on with a few house things today - spurred on by a visit from a friend who is having a bit of a hard time and although I could have done without it, its what friends are for.............and I know she would do the same for me. Anyway I didnt feel she would want to sit in our untidiness if she was feeling a little low so place looking habitable again:) I usually leave it all in the run up to a holiday but then wish I hadnt so this time I am hoping I will feel the benefits:)

    Shopping done for week - did it without a list and it was bit scary I have to say:rotfl: 12 months ago I would NEVER have written a list because I kept it all in my head. Same with work but now I find I have to resort to keeping a diary for that too :eek:

    Anyway friend just gone full of tea sympathy and choccie biscuits and just as I thought I would catch up with boat race/ tennis the sun comes out and makes me feel guilty. So have just done a 10 minute job in the greenhouse which I have been putting off and as OH and DD2 have popped out to help friend with some bottle fed lambs think I will have a sneaky peak at TV :) Tea is a very quick oven baked cod with pesto and creme fraiche sauce tonight - fish was a YS bargain 2kg for about £2.50 so loads in freezer. Must do some quick planning for next week at work but otherwise feeling very chilled as we build up to and prepare the frogs for a 2 week holiday :)
