Morning All,
Another WM x 1 done (including winter coat), and all clean washing put away.
My knitting book arrived too.
Hurt my finger again though. Boooo. And woken up with a stiff neck. Another booooo!
HUGS to all who need them.

Today is the first day in a fortnight that I've felt better from this awful lurg I got. Got I have a plan and it involves going to the dump a lot and getting rid of the detritus from the garden.
Other than that yesterday I mainly looked at finances and claimed back some money from an overpaid credit card.DFW Nerd 267. DEBT FREE 11.06.08

Hey all - hopefully a full day of flying for me today... But I do have a poorly boy home today who may hamper my efforts... I wanted to get the post office and the dump... hey ho - hopefully he will feel up to coming out over the weekend.
HHC for me - any joiners... ?

Blood test not done, it seems they asked me in 2 weeks too early!
Ordered on line a new washing machine, via quidco as well, plus it has £30 off, with free delivery, so well pleased. As the belt has come off my one AGAIN this morning, it is now happening every time I use it each wash, I spent more time with its back off putting the belt back on than actually using it! Should be delivered on Tuesday, so I'll work from home that day.
Wm is on again, fingers crossed.

Morning - just about!
I hate sleeping in - it's like I've wasted half the day before I've even started.
So straight into some vacuuming to the sounds of the radio, I think. Then I have to get my pit looking more like a room again.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
Been AWOL for absolutely ages - so totally out of the loop and have no clue what's going on with anyone.
Just seem to have been really busy lately. I've finally got a day to myself as DD2 started school a couple of weeks ago but this is her first full week in and as I'm now working 4 days a week rather than 5, this is my first day where I'm not working and I've got no children til school pick up time.
Anyway, I have been flying while I've not been here so the house isn't horrendous and I have managed to do a few things today too.

Flywise:- I have completely ignored the lists this week, eek! But I have done some much needed decluttering - the clothing situation is really starting to come together, so much so that I have the motivation to finish it I think! I am on holiday Mon-Sat next week though so who knows if I'll actually achieve this before the motivation wears off, but I am going to try:idea:Debt at July 2012: £12,862.57 :eek:
