Evening all. Been MIA while I did paid work (:rotfl::rotfl: Had no proper income from it for 2 months! The joys of self-employment) and now I'm going to try to play catch up with a couple of HHC
House isn't too bad as we cleaned on Saturday but I didn't get around to doing the bathroom, so that will have to be my first priority after DD's changed (so I can add her school blouse in the wash
) if she ever comes home. She's discovered freedom by coming home with her friends and having a mobile. School finished at 3.05pm and she's still not in but she's assured me she's nearby at a friends on route home.
If its gone its done or doesn't apply!

off to do more tidying as the boys are hovering for the puter
It isn't overcrowded at all it is just not well utilised.. There are very few people at all really it is just that most of the resources are misused and not shared equally like they should be.. far too many hog everything for themselves and far too many have nothing.. it is a disgrace really.

Not a lot of flying done - but Dulux dog look has gone as promised. i told the hairdresser 'think Judi Dench/Liza Minelli' and that's the 'look' I now have. And we both agree all-over purple would look good
- but I'll have to save up for that as I have new specs to pay for after this afternoon's trip to the optician's :eek: Varifocals plus special thinned down lenses equals spensiveness :cool: and I've gone for a new look. Byebye Elvis sunglasses inspired specs and in black framed preppy look...oh my, I hope I like them I'm going to have to wear them for two years at least...blind as a bat without my specs
Bought some fresh bread buns - fishfinger sandwiches for tea - not very posh, but tis just what I fancy and DS is easy to pleaseas long as there are no vegs included he'll eat it :rotfl:
Am really going to have to sit down and create a budget, and stick to it, or else Christmas is not going to happen in this housei seem to have haemhoraged (sp?) money this week
