    • Sort and iron clothes ready for starting work
    [/STRIKE]

    Not a huge list but I did make 3 hats for innocent smoothie yesterday as well I need to sort those out today think I've made about 300 so far this year I even found some under the bed yesterday I think they're breeding :rotfl:

    Got a hen party at the end of this month to got to but determined to only take £30 with me and not going to drink so thats shouldn't have a huge effect on my budget.

    Me and dd are off to the circus and it will be my last NSD to hit target as I got a free ticket off mum and one off her neighbour can't wait :j I'm a big kid at heart and looking for ward to it :D.

    We need to bake the cakes for school too I'm going to make about 20 red, white and blue ones for the torch run sale I have some royal icing so might put that on the top too as well to use it up as its out of dat the end of this month and to be fair I don't think I will use it for anything else I thought I could dye that red blue too to keep in with the theme.

    Not a lot else going on today as the BFTNE has to sort out a new car so not coming down :( miss him when he's not here.

    I am trying to introduce new food to him I would hate that to be my total diet I think I'll start with herbs and work my way from there he admits its because his mum let him get away with murder at dinner and he was allowed to refuse food before even trying it. I am hoping he will try my garden veg as they taste better out of the garden. :D

    Today is roast chicken day I can smell it cooked it in the slow cooker and starving already might have to have it at 1 today don't think I could take smelling it longer than that :rotfl:.

    Got to get dd's school clothes ready today just need to iron them hate ironing :mad:.

    Me and dd have just counted all my innocent smothie hats and I have made 308 so far :eek: which is £77 towards help the aged :j. I have hardly bought any wool this year as mum donated loads to me so really it will just cost me the postage and my time which to be fair isn't much as they were made while watching the TV :D.

    This year I haven't put bobbles on many as this will increase the postage costs and trying to be frugal and charitable at the same time. Well off to watch a film and make more beloved hats :D
