    Hi everyone
    Fell asleep whilst catching up tonight so sorry for the late post.
    Sent dh out for chocolate earlier as I had such a carp day at work, fell asleep before he was back so he left it by me on the sofa, woke up to find a melted bar of aero stuck to my face! argh!:rotfl:
    just waiting for it to harden in the freezer - yes I am sad.

    Can I join the no sock club? although trying hard not to

    Hugs to everyone and so happy to read about your weekend away 3dogs.

    "oh carp what is she up to now!"

    Evening guys :D Just caught up from yesterday but still got the weekend to catch up on :eek: :eek:

    We got a call late morning to say a mate was going to clear out all Alan's stuff from the units and get them into the auction, so we went down there to check everything we needed was out. He loaded up his truck and will take it to the auction rooms in the morning and then come back and load up the vinyl records and anything else and get them to the auction too. He will also clear out the old stock/rubbish packed inbetween the units and then the guy opposite can take over the 2 units this weekend and the market manager will be able to relet the single unit he will be vacating

    So we can forget about all the stuff down there - one less thing to worry about :D We still don't know how much we owe the market manager for rent but will have to sort that out with him this weekend. He keeps saying "don't worry about that' ;)

    Anyway, we picked the doggies up from the kennels and they had been good, but were very pleased to see us, and are asleep right now on the sofa - home comforts eh? ;);)

    Forgot to say, my Carers Allowance came through. The letter was there when we got back yesterday, saying underlying entitlement so I rang CAB and made appointment for 1pm next Tuesday to see Una to sort out Alan's Pension Credit and then we will know what our income is finally going to be. We will then have to put all these details in to the council to finalise HB/CTB also

    We had originally planned to go up North this weekend to see family for a week or so, but have delayed that till late next week. I have booked Bess into grooming for the 'full works' on Monday and then we have CAB on Tuesday. Alan needs a rest after this weekend, so we will probably go up on Friday 18th and stay about 10 days. That way we will see my neice and family before they go on holiday on 20th and then my Sister and BiL when they come back later that week :j

    Off to bed now though so will say night night - sleep well :D

    Thank you, a bit weepy its been a rough two weeks most important though is to keep breathing & keep moving my legs & carry on, I really need to go back to Brum & help my niece but that will have to wait till the end of the month, her brother will be going up to see here the week after next & her son is still not back at school, he may not go back to that one, I've asked him to bring him back so we can look after him for a few days

    Thinking of you too QPR - sorry have not posted sooner. You are right just take each day as it comes and concentrate on that day/task etc. Sending you hugs.

    Left work just before 10pm, and went to Sl06gh extra. No socks, but did find 1 lonely mens hat with a security tag, and a small handful of haribo bunnies. Also got a pack of cabbages for 8p, and a grape juice with the coupon. Was really lucky that the SA on the SS removed the security tag for me, even though she commented on the 4p price!
    Still walked out with a bag of shopping for less than 50p :D

    Then Bookworm63 kindly let me know another store had the caramel bunnies, so I raced down there, and got quite a few. It was great to meet Bookworm, who is really lovely.

    I know Tinyshoes isn't feeling well tonight, and she still went dashing out to T's to try and get Easter choc for her family, without any luck. So I'm pleased to say half my bunnies will be going to Tiny. :j

    Did you stick your head in the freezer or is that my imagination ?

    No Easter goodies in our local, however I did pick up a goodie bag- this pack contains a protein shake, a 4 pack of sensitive mates :eek:, some diorahlyte, and a pack of tissues! Make of that as you will. Interesting night on the cards. X :cool:

    Thanks ever so - found a few of these tonight :D

    Can't understand why the Aero Xmas trees are still 65p though!

    Perhaps it depends on the BBE date.
