I emptied the draws in our bedroom and then got the hammer out and fixed them before putting the sorted folded laundry back in(Sorry nightshift neighbour!) You can now see the bed in the spare room, it's not covered in mount laundry!
I also went through the kitchen (minus the hot spot) :eek:
DH noticed which was nice
And my present to my self after my ginormous tax rebate arrived. I'm now the proud owner of a craft robo silhouette machineAwesome! But no time to play this week. I'm out thursday, tomorrow has to be baking, DH is home Friday also for Mabon like LW and the weekend we 'may' be away - need to check if Nanny will come dog sit
:T
Right then on with the lounge
Hugs sticks and spoons all round
And LW - please dont over do it, I find dusting and bandaged hands leads to the requirement of superglue (but I'm a clutz)
ETA: I also did ALL the phone calls yesterday including leaving an answering machine message - which I HATE! I thought I was really brave"I know that Prince Charming doesn’t come save me, we save each other and fight back to back against all comers that’s what marriage is to me. Nothing passive, no being carried off on a white steed, give me my own damn horse and lets ride into the sunset side by side." - Laurell K. Hamilton.0 -

Scrap man doing the rounds sounds like he's strangling a cat!
Tooch you've just reminded me I've forgot to go clear out the caravan
Anyway yesterday not hugely successful, managed only half of my study time and list so maybe I need to reduce it a little. Just not fitting it all in, but I did forget it was swimming night
Lost 9lb in the last week, don't quite get it as I've not been that good but I'm not moaning too much even if I didn't want to loose it that fast. Purely doing calorie, fat and sugar control but eating close to my allowances. Oh well I know next week won't be as good.
I've now found all my car documents so I can get my number plate changed/made. Found my dunelm credit note (I got in January 2010 and lost) All of last year and this years paperwork has been reduced, 2010s essentials to keep is shoe boxed ready to pack away. 2011 ready to be filed. Diary now on the cabinet where post goes so all DDs can be added then we don't miss payments, a 2 drawer cubbyhole sorted for to be dealt with and to be filed. 2011 ready to go in the filing cabinet now that's had a total clear out. Phew I'm pleased that's sorted, a toad or 3 scoffed in the process!
Ok today, Occupational Therapy starts for DS2 which I'm so looking forward to as it's a private specialist and her report was excellent! I've just had an argument with his school as it's about 25 miles away and the busy body receptionist (wife of a friend of FIL) started moaning that they assumed I'd bring him in first then collect him to go. Probably because I've asked for the work he will be missing. That would give him a whole 20 minutes of lesson time disrupting it midway for the whole class so he can leave. Anyone else think I should send him?
Best get a wriggle on, going to put some clothes away and take my study books with me, have a nice day all xxOne day I might be more organised...........

Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb0 -
Suffering from lazyitis over here! Nothing done last night, other than grabbing some essentials (bread, milk) on the way home, and getting distracted by the fact that the local shop now sells S&V Kettle chips! This is a breakthrough! I was so happy, I bought two packs! And then announced it to the world on FB, cos everyone just NEEDS to know about it! hahahaFebruary wins: Theatre tickets0

i need to go stick a beef hotpot in the oven sc too. if you put the tatties on top of the hot pot in the sc do they go crispy or is it better to put them in the oven? and how long do the tatties take? ive only ever made a hot pot in the oven before lol.
coffee is helping to thaw me out nicely. cant feel my toes or fingers so might be time to throw on a jumper and socks.0 -
Morning all
Logged in quickly to say to Juliejim - Selsey is near me too if you want to pm me.

I got to school to find that the cycling proficiency course starts today. My mate rang me to see if I could take her DD's bike down as she didn't know - well neither did I so I hadn't got my DD's bike either. So I had to come home, take parcel shelf out, work out how to get my seats down, get both bikes and stick them in the boot, find helmets and bike locks and deliver them to school. I was like a drowned rat by this time. I've then just been to weigh in at SW and come home.NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20
