it used to be part of my routine but routine has been thrown out the window of late! This might explain some of my hormonal imbalances of late
:o....tablet taken today, and hopefully lesson learnt there!! :eek:
I do feel guilty - all I seem to do is come on here every month and post about Agnus Castus - I might manufacture my own:rotfl:
I do read the diaries every day - well I get the updates emailed to me overnight and read them while having breakfast which I why I reply hours after everyone else.
Hope you are still taking the tablets!! I keep mine by the microwave and I always use that to make my coffee in the morning so no forgetting.0 -
EE I've thought about using normal soap but decided against only because I wasn't sure if it would strong enough. The water here is so hard I find it impossible sometimes to keep kids clothes clean! The branded stuff I used to use was no good either :eek: I wonder if it is just my washing skills
Agnus about to be taken with my iron tooperhaps I should set a reminder on my phone because if I'm completely honest i'd forgotten again

Agnus has been taken now :cool: I've also fed kids, dressed them and put their paddling pool up & filled it. Once they were chucked into it to play they were out from under my feet so I could get on with cleaning
have put on a wash, hoovered upstairs & put away 3 lots of clothes. Am shattered now so having a well deserved break
Checked online banking there is £300 in my current account, i'm itching to put it into 'pots' and my new Isa, but I had best leave it there just in case it's needed.....plus the tenancy money is supposed to cover pots & savings this month! If she pays....:)
I've had to download some new security for my laptop as the last one had expired and I hadn't realisedi've been getting annoying pop-ups everytime i open a new page or click on a link for a while now! AVG is being downloaded as I type and I hope it works!! My laptop is already painfully slow as it's only a teeny netbook with not much memory and with the pop ups it's even slower :wall:
Hoping for a NSD today as i've plenty in the house to be getting on with and the kids have toys & paddling pool in garden. I can take them to the park later if they get bored as it's just across the road and also take the dog for a walk too. I've had a few NSD's this month already so happy with thatHope everyone reading is ok and enjoying the nice weather (when the rain and clouds disappear!)
p.s if you're looking for good films to watch with kids I can recommend 'Jack the gi@nt slayer' and 'Oz the great and p0werful' we downloaded both and they are great :T (and free....!)MORTGAGE BALANCE when we moved Aug 2024, £120,000.

Hi just a quick post about soap for washing powder, I've used $unlight lemon version which has been fantastic and smells lovely too but I found a pack C@stille soaps 5 in a pack which I'm going to make up a batch today. They were in the bargains of homes shop and really cheap although I can't remember exact price I know they were well under a pound.
