    Thats a nice meal plan - hope you've got your energy back after falling asleep like that (I went a walk with my sister yesterday, and the only reason I didn't go to bed in the afternoon was that I didn't want to walk up the stairs!). Anyway, I'm liking the to do list too, I'll be working on the accounts after my client's been today, so thats it, really.

    Hope today goes well.

    Hi KC.

    Had lunch. Also found bag of salad that required eating....can't move now.

    This afternoon I need to do a slide for steering plus two for boss. Why does what sounds like 10 minutes work actually morph into about 6 hours when I involve Powerpoint???

    I'll take a break about 3 to do the cheques and walk the husky before we lose the light.

    Then home to finish off work tasks and get going in kitchen.

    Cooked the yeugh sausages when reheating the lasagne. OMG the fat that came off was artery hardening. At least it's a healthier treat for Husky as she'll put it to fur coat building but fat is drained off in an bin.

    This week is going pretty well.

    Menu plan is trucking on but ending up at home yesterday and in office today so a bit of mixing and matching going on.

    Off doon sooth tomorrow so early start and very late finish. Working from home Friday as last time I tried this I was I'll for two days. I did volunteer so suck it and see time.

    In annoying position of hiring someone to work for me who'll get paid more than me. Hopefully will be rectified by renewal time next year, assuming I get renewed that is.

    Choir and criminology were fun. Did Freud tonight and the infamous Philip Larkin poem "They **ck you up your mum and dad". Mad bat twitched a bit but she's seen enough true crime to know that's how crims talk you know :rotfl:

    I was asked to explain the Oedipus Complex...I sanitised it a bit for the Bat. She'd twitched enough for a lady of a certain age for one night :eek:

    And most MSE I've put the remainder in to the offset £13,467.43. Only problem is it takes a week to transfer so doesn't cover any interest. I can see an ever decreasing but endless loop here - can I have a 1p mortgage? :D

    My agent is convinced Mad Bat is serial killer scouting for victims. It's a sad day when I'm the sanest person I know.

    :rotfl: I'd be genuinely alarmed if I were in a room and assessed myself to be the sanest there. ;)

    Its quite a surprise to me too, when I realise I'm probably the sanest person in the room :)

    I recited that Philip Larkin poem once (from memory :) ) to a therapy convention once - and a *lot* of people asked me for the name of the author (it was in America) :) its a good'un, that poem.

    Hi Kissjenn, :hello:

    Am in total awe of your financial acumen (didn't even know off-set mortgages existed until you mentioned the words!).

    Good luck with trip Doon Sooth. :)
