Morning all. Not caught up with the thread so hugs, vibes and yays as appropriate

I actually managed to place a Mr A order online last night. It's only taken me nearly 2 weeks :rotfl: I had hoped to get it delivered while DD was at school, but it was booked up until 7pm tonight! I need to make sure the fridge etc is cleaned out before it arrives as its a MASSIVE shop including some bits for Christmas

I've decided to tackle a frog this morning, I'm dealing with my "rather warm" email account. I have grocery delivery confirmations going back to 2008 :eek::o It doesn't like it though and keeps slowing right down or not deleting/moving things.

Sorry to hear that tooch (hugs)

I am here at paid stuff till 3, then I need to buy some new pillows. Any recommendations? I don't want to spend loads but I want decent ones, not so soft that I suffocate in them and not so hard I bounce off them, lol. Not memory foam, preferably.

Parents evening tonight so not much likely to be done today flywise. But I did clean all the downstairs floors yesterday so that's a start...

Went to DS1's ski trip meeting and decluttered another £43. I now have his requirement list so need to tramp around sound sports shops in the near future. I would be grateful if anyone has any advice as I haven't been skiing myself.

2 huge charity bags filled and have been collected.

DS2 is having an insect day today and has chosen McD's lunch over a selections of other outings. I'm going to request a salad as I'm trying to be good.

I'll run and catch you up TC

Think I'll struggle today as there is clutter on all the floors to be vacuumed... and the hall carpet and LR carpet are so far gone they need taking up and binning. I have the floor paint and rugs... the task seems so huge though :eek:

Quick rant: apparently my boss is struggling to work as she has flu; she wouldn't have to struggle if I took over, unpaid, as there is no money for holiday or sick cover so she HAS to work. I WON'T be guilt tripped, upper management are taking the p8ss out of us both. :mad::mad::mad: and breathe... better out than in eh :rotfl:

Time for coffee and prepare for a HHC 11 - 11.30? do take one :coffee::coffee::coffee:

trulymadlydeeply_indebt!

Sorry to hear of your loss toochoosey {{{HUGS}}}

Busy morning already here as we are down to one car at the moment and everybody needs to be in a different direction!!!!!! Left home (Point A), took DD to School 3 miles away (Point , carried on and took OH to work 8 miles further away (Point C), came home to collect the dog (Back to point A), realised DS had left crucial maths workbook and he has 2 periods of maths today so took that and his calculator to School 4 miles away (Point D), did a loop around to the woods (Point E) and am now back at Point A. Quick shower and then it's off to work for 11am start (back to point C).

Do 3 hours work and then get to do it all again in reverse from 2pm - oh the joys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doesn't help that when the inlaws came to stay at the weekend they pre-ordered Call of Duty Black Ops Xbox game which came out at midnight at a different town 25 miles away and there is NO WAY DS will let me settle until he has it in his hands. All I've heard since Saturday is "I can't wait until Tuesday (squeal)". DD has a swimming class at 4.30 - maybe I should just jump in with her and not surface!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rotfl:

**Vanilla**

Morning all, kids decluttered to school and i went back to bed with a sore head (think i drank too much coffee yesterday). DS3 now up and fed so i'll get him ready for playgroup.

LW hope all goes well today xxx
Tooch I'm sorry for your loss xxx

Right i suppose i should get dressed.

dancemum

In my HHC

Made 2 phone calls
henried ground floor
got hex bugs out

I'm sure I did more but memory is like a sieve. I'm turning into my mother. I caught my saying to DS1 I'm not your slave and this isn't a hotel you know.
