Oh man I am awful, got half of level 1 of today done!
On the plus side I posted 11 eBay items that sold on Sunday and got 22 new items listed on eBay which is a plus.

I have a bit more time tomorrow so might be ambitious and try and catch up with everything I've missed already this week along with some washing and ironing. It will be domestic day

Evening all

Been a busy day here today. After my little run round before my previous post I handed in DD's bus pass form, went to M@t@l@n and left empty handed , H0me B@g@ains & spent £30 :eek: Home, out again to another HB (who had in what I went to the previous one for ), got DD a mortice key so if I'm not home she can still get in (she should never need to use it until she is much older, but I know our luck - I'll go into town one day on an errand, it'll throw it down with rain as DD is headed home so she'll be soaked and I'll be stuck in traffic on a bus on the way home and she'd be left standing on the step:o), picked her up from summer school (she loved it and thought the schools nature reserve, staff & 6th formers are all really cool :j), went straight for school shoes (black trainers for both of us, I have funky purple laces in mine and a new school bag for DD), then came home via a c@sh4cl0thes shop who are now coming out on Thursday to collect stuff :money: So after tea while DD emailed her dad about her day at school, I set too on sorting out my "to go" pile. I now have over 40kg of stuff to go AND its halved the pile I've also managed to sort out the remaining stuff into boxes to donate, and in theory saleable on an auction site stuff All in all a very productive day....I just wish I'd remembered to put the washing on sooner as the jeans I need for the morning are currently in the WM Looks like it could be a late one for me! I'm off to shift a few things upstairs while enroute to grabbing an empty basket for DD's clean washing, then I need to write a shopping list for the BIG shop tomorrow

Mumto5 - lots of luck for your interview tomorrow, you're having a hard time at the moment so I hope your DH realises and offers a hug, an apology and cooks tea and that your DS realises how easy it has it at home!! I would give them both a swift kick up the bum and refuse to do anything for them till they sort themselves out! Hope the morning brings some happiness for you.

Change of plans here for the afternoon, we decided to go to a swimming pool at Bedford that has waves and all sorts, it was really good and we were all knackered when we got hone, I then played a game on Wii with DS and have managed to pull a muscle in my shoulder, it really hurts [yes I am a wimp lol] Voltarol sorts the pain for about 5mins, I'll have to read the instructions for it as I'm rubbing it in every half hour and I'm not sure you can use it that much!

If my shoulder is better tomorrow I'm planning a trip to Ike* for a nosy, if not I'll be doing what I can off the list

we're in for a looooooooong night.. Squeak got up at 1am!!

pigpen

HHc @ 4:30am anyone?????

Squeak went to sleep about half an hour ago and the other little winnie is now up and screaming. I will murder one of them at this rate.. or just die of tiredness myself!

I did the kitchen on the last all nighter so I may go do the front room tonight

amyloofoo

Hi ladies,

Am up early as went to bed at ridiculous o' clock yesterday. Will make a cup of coffee, reply to the thread and then crack on - 6am HHC if you're still about Pigpen?

pigpen

oh look.. it's getting light!

I'm still about Amy, was just going for a cuppa myself.. might keep me awake a bit. I had an hours sleep... I feel worse than I did before I went up!

OH stayed up with Squeak until about 4.. by which time Dot had been up an hour.. I give up, I don't even know why I bother going to bed any more. He is now snoring and I am too pee'd off to sleep anyway.
