Good afternoon all,I too didn't get any extra sleep as my body clock told me it was 6.45 so I was wide awake even though I'd turned the clocks back and it was 5.45 so today its been a looong day.:)
Just been pottering around really don't seem to have much get up and go at the moment .DD just texted me from the U.S. and she said her and her OH are having a great time, I think I missed her Sunday morning visit.:) DGS Danny wants me to give him a tutorial on how to use the washing machine as his Mum isn't there to do it for him.I shall pop up there before I go to my youngest DDs for dinner later.Just going to make a cuppa to warm me up a bit as its really very nippy in Kent
Take care all and have a good sunday ,what's left of it

Afternoon all,
Had a busy day so far
Had a visit from SSIL and his two little ones, managed a quick boiled egg and then went to tk m@x with dh to get him some bits for our hols. He always gets fixed up there and everything he bought was reduced. Also managed to get the last 2 Xmas pressies.
All that's left is to get him a white dressy shirt to go with his suit for the wedding. Need to order that on line.
Came back and dh did a little fashion parade for me:rotfl: and then sorted through ds3 summer stuff. Have a list of the last few bits they need before we go so will sort that this next week.
There is only my wedding outfit to get but will leave that until the last minute so that I am at my lowest weight.
Only five weeks and three days until we go whoop wool
So have just been for a walk up killer hill and came back and did my bingo wing exercises and some new high intensity thing I'm trying, have a goal in mind that I am trying to reach before we set off. It's blooming hard work but I am determined.
So just crashed in front of the tv to watch the united match. Will watch with one eye and read my kindle with the other.
Tea tonight will be left over lasagne for the fellas and fish with salad for me.
Have a good evening all, wonder who will go out of strictly. I think it could be Sid Owen or Richard Arnold.
Wish me luck I have my interview at 10.30 tomorrow I definitely need positive vibes:DStarted Self Managed DMP 10th May 2017.

Afternoon all,
DH finished putting in the 2 new windows ,well it still needs plastering around,but its much lighter :jso worth doing I think,and not too much mess.Then he cut down some saplings that were growing over our side from the school wildlife area(ha-jungle more like :mad:) so we can actually see some sky through the stairs window now.
Just packing tools away when DGD arrived for a short visit.She seems a lot less snotty than she did on Friday when I had her and was in a lovely cheeky mood.After she'd gone went to get a few bits from SM,quite a few nice yellow stickers too.
Beef stew in the sc,and apple crumble in the oven.It seems to be just the 2 of us for tea DS1 has gone to NECwatching Top Gear,he got a free ticket as his mates gf was working,DS2 watching a boxing match.
Right,better dish up,hugs to those in need.xx:heartsmil 'A woman is like a teabag: You never know her strength until you drop her in hot water'. (Eleanor Roosevelt)0 -

We buy water for our fishtank occasionally to do a water change, as the local water is extremely hard.
We also bought 3 new fish today, silver dollars, brought them home, left them to acclimatise by adding tank water into the bag they came in.
Eventually we tipped them into the tank & all 3 dropped like stones to the bottom of the tank, looking totally dead. Hubby & I stood there in horror, this had never happened before. Suddenly after about 30 minutes they all popped up & started swimming around happily.

We have just heard from my brother in New Jersey, they have a state of emergency declared and have been ordered to evacuate, so they are packing and heading to his FIL's place, as you can imagine mum is a tad worried. Looks like they are gearing up for some hairy times, saw some pics from NY.......think it may be a long couple of days!RIP Iain

Hello just getting on this evening. Hope you are all getting some rest.
Got loads of washing done today, decluttered the baby's drawers, photographed the clothes put them on my fb selling group and made about £60. Some to list on ebay tomorrow. So post office trip in the morning. Had a coffee out with friend and took the big one to see madacasgar.
Nice day all round but didn't so any uni work. Must do that tomorrow evening.
Sleep well!0
