    All of upstairs dusted bar DS1 room, I'll finish that later

    Couple of hours in the garden stacking wood, collecting leaves, wrapping the wormery. DH helped and female black cat had week's worth of exercise showing off to us.

    Going to cook some soup and pudding now then another HH out the front I think before I cook dinner.

    Ok, I'm done for today, worn out and dinner still to be prepared. The Xmas tree will have to wait but the room is nice and clean ready for it.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Been to mums for a nice chicken dinner. Got to 2.30 and DS said he wanted to go home :( he was still harping on about it 20min later, so we are now home, DD fell asleep so have lifted her she's under a blankie on one sofa, and he's lounging on the other watching a DVD. I asked why he wanted to come home and he said "I just need a big night in my bed" :D bless him. 2 nights away from home a bit much.

    So I just need to plan for supper (sausage rolls, crackers and cucumber I think, they've both eaten a good dinner). Then bath and bed for the two littlies. So I'll not let DD sleep later than 4pm.

    I think that's it for tonight. We have been threatened with snow again tonight but they said Friday night too, and my car wasn't even frosted up on Saturday. It does feel very cold out now, though.

    Got 16 eb@y items ending tonight, so far only 4 have bids. I'm going to be ruthless, the rest can go to the hospice sale as I'm sick of looking at them. I do have a few items watched though. Fingers crossed some more sell. X

    Hello ladies. This time 21 years at I was staring in awe and wonder at My new born DD1. We had a lovely day celebrating her birthday, I feel so lucky to have such a lovely Daughter.

    Unsurprisingly flying has taken a back seat this weekend. We were awake early this morning and had a good chucking session in the little ones bedroom. A boot load of gibble has gone to the tip. Does that count?

    And last month we had the loft insulated......so now 2 boxes of LPs awaiting disposal. Any ideas? If I list them individually on ebay I'll still have them by Christmas 2014. But guests arriving this year...........

    Well, Mr N feeling like a flyman today and looking for joint tasks so we have just listed all the LPs, it made 4 pages of a Word document! I looked a few up on ebay to see if they were worth anything, and quite a few seemed to be. A friend from "up North" (Peak District but that's well north from me!) knows someone who buys and sells vinyl LPs so going to email him the list and hope he makes an offer to take them off our hands - or to be precise, off my office floor!!

    Also made decision as to where Mr N needed to drill holes etc to put up one display unit and 2 notice boards in office - something he's been pressing me to decide on since office was decorated last Dec!!!! Can't have taken me a year to decide which wall to hang them on surely? :eek: Added bonus of display unit is that the ornaments found when emptying loft for insulation 2 months ago now have a home other than loose on desk (determined not to put them back in loft).

    Have also today delivered 55 village magazines (thanks Mr N), moved last few tender plants into greenhouse or conservatory pending cold weather, picked a load of spinach frozen in the garden now may just get a bit of photo albums done as it's that or a report for college.............

    happy flying.
