  • Stuff listed on eb@y :)

    How come the sun is out now - 6am we were shivering :o

    Geraniums planted, front swept, garage tidied and vacuumed. Larder resorted.

    Waiting for lodger to arrive :T. Although I charge weekly, a week in advance, he wants to pay for his entire stay in one go - so that he doesn't get tempted to spend the money :T. I had thought he wanted to pay up front by the month, but no, the whole lot - I won't be saying no to that, thank you.

    Mr T has had me in stitches at the car boot sale this morning - he has a very dry sense of humour and I was almost crying with laughter at one point.

    Off to prepare the chicken for dinner - we keep changing our mind about what to do with it though, so I'm not holding my breath.

    Best wishes Tilly

  • I'm having an extremely early night, but the last two weeks have either been spent socialising or working late into the evening.

    I'm a very happy happy Mrs Tilly and have been cooking for our new lodger and the rest of us. I am definitely in my element when the house is full :):):)

    Night and happy new week

    If Tilly invites any of us round make sure you let family and friends know where you are :eek:.

    Quick work Tilly, impresssive :T.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Tasty lodger = happy Tilly :rotfl::rotfl:

  • More normal updates now :)

    38p TT OP
    CP survey complete 2000 points
    S&S survey complete 1000 points
    PC 2 surveys complete - £6 to PayPal

    Just under £5 to go and OP payout, Mr Ts account - then I'll need to build mine up more quickly, but he definitely gets way more surveys than I do

    Menu plan written for two weeks - my larder stocks are disappearing - I have around 4 shelving units in one side of the garage and they used to be full - I'm down to one unit being full and the other shelves are being used for overspill from elsewhere.

    I will be buying in a far more discerning manner when I stock up the next time :rotfl:

    On Saturday I finished a jar of mint sauce - another use up in the fridge.

    Tonight we are having lemon and chicken risotto with roast peppers.

    Right, need to get cracking
