I have no idea why I'm laughing, I think maybe i am actually bordering on manic hysteria and not laughter after ll !
After reading about your struggles with the shopping budget and the shopping almost disaster and a bumped car I get to this. I am ashamed to admit and have to say the mania must be catching as I am sitting here with tears rolling down my face.
Let's hope October is slightly less traumatic xTargets

The thing is Granny, I really do think this is the story of my life !! It will be good to read back on this one day . Friends often say that our life is like a soap opera !
I dont blame you for laughing, I think the manic hysteria is here to stay for me I'm afraid !!LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

:j:j:j Yey, I have just made the Final Payment to the Inland Revenue for the Company Tax !! I have also for good measure given him an additional £283.00 towards the next bill that is due by the end of October !! We will have to come to another payment arrangement but I thought I would show willing and give him some money extra and early !
What I do nowadays is as soon as we are paid, I immediately take 10% off that and pay it straight into the HMRC Account. That way if things get tough we cant raid it as we have done in the past, as its not there. It is safely in the hands of the HMRC. Its worked for the last year, so I will continue alongs those lines.
Accounts going to the Accountant on Wednesday so I will wait with baited breath for the next bill, but I am smiling int he knowledge that he already has a little something towards it.
Driving Licence winging its way to the DVLA and the passport is ready to go. The photos are horrific as you now have to tuck your hair behind your ears, no hair falling on your face at all. The girls took great delight last night in lining up varying mugshots of me over the years to see how much I have aged ! Wicked Children !! :rotfl::rotfl:
I most definitely looking my age and then some in these recent shots. As I am still channelling the scrawny chicken rather knackered look the camera has clearly focused on the drawn face, cheekbones, humungous eye bags and forehead wrinkles, oh as well as the roots in my hair that desperately need doing. Elle McPherson I most definitely am not !!! :rotfl:
I think the poor man at the DVLA office is in for a shock when he opens my application tomorrow !!!
Oh and work is looking good, a few more confirmed days today at a good rate and we have even had to turn work down as we are working for another client.
So all in ........a good day so far !LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

Oh thankyou Stripes !! My life is plain sailing compared to some I'm sure, but there is usually a drama of some sort but to be honest I cant remember it being any different !
You made me laugh actually, DD1 always used to say to me " Mum, you rock, like a Rocky Thing !!!" Always makes me giggle for some reason !LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

I can lay claim to one of these too, for some reason there is a rather old looking woman on mine and it's the same woman that I see now and again from the corner of my eye. I think she may be stalking me as she often appears when I'm window shopping.
Have a good day today honey xTargets
