  • 2 more bags to the charity shop and a boot full to the tip but under my bed has been tackled (that cupboard is the kind no one EVER wants to venture into).

    Feeling better knowing I've ordered the broadband and phone to be activated now. Got £85 cash back tracking. Hopefully BT don't take too long to pay that and the £50 S*insburys voucher. That voucher will really help get our cupboards started :)

    ok it's too quiet on here, I've drank quite a lot which explains why I'm now watching "Crack in the World" with my parents and have fish fingers and waffles on the grill. What a rock n roll lifestyle I lead...! :rotfl:

    Someone talk to me!!!!

    I ordered my Game of Thrones box set on Thursday, but hasn't arrived yet so that'll have to wait till next week for me. I saw the first episode, but my house contract ran out and I didn't have Sky after that. :(

    Therefore, I am forced to watch some boxing instead tonight. Spent a pound or two on some beer for myself, but not too much!

    GoT = AWESOME!!! OH and I watched an episode everyday before he went to Canada.

    I'm having a MSE evening, I'm making a plastic bag dispenser from a FQ (fat quarter) I bought last year but never used. It's Clarke & Clarke blue floral print <3 I'm succeeding in my NSD, as I've bought some sewing machine bits on fleabay but need an invoice, so can't spend any pennies on them until tomorrow ;)

    I'm a proper geek and have read all the books, just waiting to get the boxset so I can settle down with it too.

    Happy viewing!

    I made a plastic bag dispenser this evening :) Cost = free as I used some bits of fabric I already had :D and some acryric yarn to tie the ends. Room is tidier and ugly plastic bags are out of sight hidden in something pretty :)431076_10150621502149755_512474754_9237417_2056700538_n.jpg

    We were naughty last night too, DH and I went out to dinner :o Picked DD up from Grans afterwards as she catagorically refused to leave her Grans house to come with us, brought her home, put her too bed and all was well until 11:30pm

    First it starts with tummy ache, then I need a poo but cant go, and ends in a fantastic display of projectile vomiting :eek: Think she reacted to something she ate as it was all food and she seems fine this morning (even though she decided to get up at 6:30am :mad: and someones phone is incessantly beeping and I cant find it :mad:)

    THe worst part was, she was sick on George the hippo, who she has taken to bed every night since he arrived from Father Christmas when she was 2, so after she had her nasty incident, Georgie couldnt even comfort her so she had to take Mickey while George had a bath in the washing machine, he is currently warming himself on the raidiator and should be ready for cuddles very soon. I am being very careful not to mention him at the moment ;)
