OMG I'm afraid the oven monster did get me, a whole hour it has just taken me to clean my disgusting cooker!! And some of the marks still didn't come off,it looks so lovely and sparkly I can't complain too much but still, I didnt expect it to take me quite so long!! That is all I did in my HHC well it was AWHC(A whole hour clean). I'm tired now so have just got back into bed with some grapes, mmmmm, might even have a little snooze in a bit

How did you get on Natty?

seafarers_wife

Im going to go and have some lunch and then a potter until 2pm and then go for a snooze.

roll on maternity leave as its now 10 days of work left which is 40 hours of work :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

although the downside is my mum is up next week and my spare room is still a tip so need to do some of that this afternoon if i can be bothered.

40 hours will fly by seafarers, I finished early due to not sleeping but I am loving all my extra time, I can sleep whenever I like Trouble is makes me so much more impatient for baby to get here, as I still have 9 weeks to go!

Goodintentions

Sweet dreams Missy

Good afternoon

I managed to get ready, including breakfast before 7.45am again this morning. i had even emptied the DW & fed the dog & rabbit :j
I took the kids to school, and then took Miss T to toddler group so had a nice morning there. Her mum had forgotten to pack nappies, but luckily she managed to hold on 'til just before she was picked up :eek:
I made carrot & coriander soup for lunch (yum!). I think I will take the dog for a run/swim and maybe pick some blackberries before they are all gone (down to our last jar of jam!!). Then, if I have time before school pick up I will have a look at the student finance form :eek:
Ok - I need to wake the dog up from his yelpy puppy dream & get going

Do you have the recipe for the soup Goodintentions? Sounds yummy and I have carrots that need using up.

Valli

Well I checked my e bay and had a messgae (second actually) from a buyer who had asked me to pack VERY carefully asking me to send a package that would fir a regular postbox...I assume he meant letterbox and it was too big...so I had to repack the blimmin thing. Been and posted them all, got washing on line and I have prepped some whoopsied mince for tea - though this meant going back to Mr Ms (where she got the moince from) for carrots and potatoes. Might do the Vallikids a potato hash with half the mix and stick the other half under a layer of mash for a cottage pie to go in the freezer.

And I have messed about and faffed about so the PC is going offski when I've had my coffee and I AM going to get my finger out...

Well I still have 2 clowns not paid from Saturday.. they have received snotty emails... and I have another who wanted postage to Germany and I will not send stuff anywhere that is not signed for so postage is just about £10... so they are unlikely to pay!

I sold a bundle of condoms too... FLING! It has to be done!

Interesting, I never knew condoms would sell on ebay! I am sure there is a stash somewhere that will never get used as OH decided he didn't like the feel of them...lol, so rather than flinging them in the bin I will add them to the ebay pile!
