OS Monday 26th March

Options
Hi, this is the Daily Thread for Monday 26th March. This is an “over the garden fence” type thread where we chat about everything OS and maybe a little bit more. It’s a great, inspiring and motivating thread we start each day to discuss what we’re going to do today or what we’ve achieved already. Everyone’s welcome, please do come in, put your feet up (although check the fence hasn’t just been painted first!) and join us for an OS natter. The more the merrier!

When you make a post, if you feel like giving it a title, that will help others that don’t have the time to read everything skim through the thread quickly but if not it's not a problem, we’re a laid back bunch here so you won’t hear any complaints. Please do not start a new daily thread before you go to bed at night because this often leaves things confusing with two daily threads live at the same time. The idea is that a member would start each new daily thread after they get up in the morning

Some people who chat here like to try to answer everyone. Don’t feel you have to though, a general “hi everyone, hope everyone’s well” type start does just as well.

    Morning Kyle, Morning Amie

    Kyle...how do you cope with so little sleep? With a little one it's not like you can go for 40 winks whenever you fancy.

    Amie, your breakfast sounds fabulous....

    The current big deal in my life as some of you may remember is w*r* - I am not looking forward to this week at all. Funny, a week ago I was telling you all that life was the same old same old - looks like life is going to get another shake up after all.

    Have a fabulous Monday everyone.

    Snowy

    Hi everyone, Just a quick one as we are all runnning rather late.

    I will have to stay late at work today to sort out some paperwork and so tea will probably be something quick and easy like a salad or omelette.

    2h3qurk.gif to any one in need today, good luck Snowy with work.

    Got to go, have a nice day.

    Good morning! I wasted a lot of yesterday due to a hangover! DH and I had a lovely Saturday evening with neighbours and some great wine but paid for it with one of those hangovers that won't go away until you've had a good night's sleep! Anyway, today's a new day. A bit darker this morning but I love the lighter evenings. Having a good clean-up today, making the roast we should have had yesterday as well as some cakes and will do my meal planner for the next couple of weeks. It's such a good way of not over-spending on food! Hope everyone has a great day!

    Hi all,

    I only woke up once last night! That's a miracle:rotfl: Maybe because on Sat night I was up till 4.30 with DD. She came in at 12.30 crying, saying she felt ill. Thought she was drunk, but she swore she'd only had three drinks. She was holding her stomach and head, shaking from head to foot, and crying. Didn't know what to do. Asked her if she'd taken anything, NO!, anyway had to sleep with her and watch her till she fell asleep. Se was eventually sick, and settled down afterwards.
    Yesterday, I thought about it, and think that she had had a spiked drink. Thank goodness she had the sense to get a cab home again.:T

    So last night I slept like a baby!
    Work today, last week before Easter hols! Hurrah! two weeks off.:j

    Hope everyone has a good day, going to make my porridge now.
    I Believe in saving money!!!:T

    Good morning everyoen,

    I hate the clocks going forward - it puts my sleeping right out and i hate getting up in the dark!!! I have enough probs getting sleep as it is, so will prob be a grumpy old moo today!!!

    Not many plans for today - i have 2 LOs here, and i bought some new 'scooby doo' toys for them to play with, (their new fav thing) so that should go down well. Also going to try and keep on top of the 'flylady' challenge, its the kitchen today, which i will crack on with whilst the LOs are having their lunch. If i still feel like i do at the moment, that really will be it for me today tho!!!!

    Snowy - hope all goes ok when you go into work this morning xx

    ((HUGS)) to anyone who wants/needs one xxx

    Have a lovely day everyone,
    Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Morning. I have missed out for a week or so... I have had an awkward shift pattern that means I am asleep in the morning. But this week off....
    Looks liek a reasonable day. I have to go and get my boat out of the water and on to the trailor. That means a difficult sort of day, and I will probably get wet.
    A few repairs and we should be back in business.
