    Thanks bossy moo!

    I will sit down and watch it later.

    Also hoping that because I am currently classed as an insomnia sufferer that I will be really able to jump in head first with it being that I'm awake most morning between 4.30 - 5am! Which is also nice as it is children free time!

    x x x x x

    I look forward to talking to you all and getting into the hang of it all!

    Im also sammy_kaye on there too if anyone can find me etc! Ill happily look everyone else up too if you pop me your names!
    Time to find me again

    Welcome Sammy-kaye

    Today I have been mainly eating frogs!

    Going to get DS3 into bed and then eat another one, yum yum.

  • I've murdered my iron.



    Actually, that was a lie.



    I picked it up off the shelf before the kitchen was reorganised and used it to iron two bed sheets, four pillowcases and two shirts.

    It was so annoyed at being disturbed from its lengthy slumbers, a la the Lost Ark that Indiana Jones and the Nazis pestered, that it promptly pinged the temperature dial and jumped off the ironing board and committed hara kiri on the kitchen floor.


    What would be a good replacement? I need vast amounts of steam as I can't be relying on strength in my hands to do anything. It was a Bosch.




    Oh, by the way, Tightfisted Towers is almost pristine, hence the iron related activity...
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    lol at the iron murdering - I've gone through lots of irons (and a couple of ironing boards) can't think why :rotfl:

    all paid for e bay sales bar one packed. Can't pack the last one, the boxes I have aren't quite right - need a bigger one...

  • Started with great intentions! Brought work home last night and then fell asleep on safa surrounded by work papers!

    Wrecked tonight so all I did was clean kitchen (again) empty bins and put on a wash (for something to wear tomorrow)!

    Maybe catch up by doing level one from now on - starting Tuesday.

    Well done everyone else though
