    It must be the day for it! On our 6am walk I bent down to pick up dog poo (my own dogs!) and realised as I was half way through I didn't have the poo bag on my hand and was just using naked hand!:eek: Had to walk home with a hand that was covered in it and a dog that wouldn't come near me:rotfl::rotfl:


    Today's small things....
    • Got a surprise cheque for £15 through the post
    • Remembered to post fathers day card - good for me, its usually registered post the day before due to forgetting
    • Got some reduced strawbs and rasps from the greengrocers
    • Took breakfast and lunch to work
    • Checked bank and the car DD has gone out early :mad: (pay day on Friday)
    • Will make tea from stores
    • Walked dog for exercise and will do the Shred later

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Hi all

    Hope everyone is well (and recovered from all the dog walking antics!!).

    Well I've been off work on paid annual leave until today, but have been dosed up to the eyeballs and feeling like death warmed up so don't feel like I have really had a break. Won't get the time back from work which is a bit annoying, but OH unethically announced that if I run out of leave I could have a three day sickie as then it cancels out :rotfl:

    Anyway, due to having not moved from the sofa for a while, plan is as follows:

    * Check banks
    * Read Martin's email
    * Washing on (3 loads I reckon) and all on the airer / hangers / any spare space in the whole house to dry!
    * Make dinner from stores (advantage of the plague has been staying with OH so he's been feeding me all weekend)
    * Make lunches for thurs & fri work
    * Sort through the other 49 emails staring at me

    That'll probably be my lot!

    Have fun all

    I have enough money for the rest of my life... as long as I never have to pay for anything again!

    Drove down to the big park near us with the dog so he could have a decent walk before I picked up the kids. Bent over to pick up his deposit, don't know how, got some in my fringe :eek::eek:. Oh god the smell! 20 minutes back to the car, got in, turned the key, nothing. :mad: Had to walk home, all uphill, hoping the hair accessory wasn't too obvious.

    Sorry I had to off load, thanks for reading! Cup of tea and lidl choc is making things a bit better (that and washing my hair :rotfl::rotfl:).
