    'At this moment in time' is my pet hate.

    Afternoon All

    The sun has shone today, I turfed DD out of bed at 7am to wash her bedding - that's now back on the bed all clean and line dried. Just put another couple of loads out so hopefully they will be dry by the time I go to work at 7.

    Not much else going on here, house as tidy as I can make it, the cleaning company are coming tomorrow to look at the damage so that's another step forward.

    Hugs to all those in need, sorry my mind has gone blank, I have a rotten cold that's stopping my brain working!! Take care. XX

    Add to that, "so I turned round and said." Some people must be giddy with the amount of turning round they do.

    LOL you lot would hate me then as I've used about 60% of the phrases mentioned :rotfl: especially the "to be honest with you......" but that generally because I am ;):rotfl:

    Evening all

    Tappers - :T for the paintings on display!

    Beautiful day here all day til now when the rain has come.

    I had an awful nights sleep :( I'd been feeling full of cold yesterday and tired so went to bed early, but once in bed I couldn't sleep. It was gone midnight before I went to sleep and then I woke up every hour on the hour til 4am, and then was wide awake til 6am, managed an hour's sleep then before my alarm went off :(. Not good. Cold was really bad this morning, which then affects my vertigo. So I was a bit grumpy today! But I am feeling better now, just tired.

    Loooong day. I drove to the next town 3 times today :eek: First to drop work kids off to do some fundraising, left them with my colleague as I had a meeting, then drove back to pick them up in the afternoon (they raised £200 :D). And then drove back there for college this evening!

    OS wise - bins put out this morning (but not yet collected :mad:), salad made for lunch today, HM soup taken out of freezer for lunch tomorrow, 2 x YS pizzas bought in supermarket for 99p each (WW ones, should be £2.25 each!)

    Have a good evening all
