Well Mrs P, you haven't posted today.

Hello Mrs P
Hope all well in the Pinot household as Bonnington has said hope you are having some time out for you and not overdoing it.
No doubt will catch up tomorrow

Helloooo !!! :wave:
Well I'm back after my absence of a couple of days !! I wish bonnington, I could say that I have been reclining in the sunshine, with a good book and many glasses of chilled Pinot, but sadly it wasnt to be ! But...... although a very very hectic few days that kept me from posting, they were good and not too stressful , so thats gotta be good ?!!
DD1 had her first "Gig" Saturday night ! How proud were we ? Not quite the O2........ more a sticky carpeted social club, but what the heck, you have to start somewhere ! We were soooo proud of her. I have to say some of the talent there was amazing, it was a lovely night to see the youngsters up there on stage having a ball .
Other than that ran around sorting bits and bobs out. Mr Pinot took Saturday off so that he could come to the Show in the evening, it was lovely to have him around. We managed a couple of hours in the garden trying to give it a quick tidy up before he was back at work on Sunday . He also got a few items up on ebay yesterday , one of which already has a bid of £160, so we are watching that one with bated breath !
Today was work, a mad dash around the house with the hoover and then more birthday card and present deliveries. We had two birthdays today. We have also turned so much work down today again, as the dates all clashed. I know its a lovely position to be in, but as Ive said before it doesnt sit easy when we have this level of debt theres only two of us though and we cant split ourselves in anymore directions. Oh, Ive paid a bit more off of the tax bill over the weekend as well and updated the signature.
DD2's birthday is next weekend, and we have a houseful from Fri to Sunday to celebrate . A combintion of her friends, our friends and family :eek: I am having a slightpanic, ie no sleep last night worrying about feeding the hordes again for the second time in the same month, as Mr Pinot also needs to pay for a weeks worth of hotels the following week for business. Unfortunately he doesnt get to choose where he stays and is told where he must be and when, so we could be looking at bills in excess of £100 per night. These take in the region of 6 weeks to reclaim . :eek: Its not come at a great time, but we will mangage I'm sure !
So how are you all ? I am off now to begin to catch up on your diaries, but I hope you are all doing ok. Its been very strange not catching up with everyones news these past few days !!
