MOOLOO'S Muddling on into 2013

They HAVE ONE as the office.! Notice that they were warm in there. But they are planning to get it sorted for me before the end of next week. So that's not too drastic.
Didn't win the bid on ebay for the Overlocker, so I think that I will go and get a look at a new one, possibly tomorrow, or Friday, I will take the old one to Silver and see if they can service it, and if not replace it with one of thier's as I was looking at one of them anyway.

They have decided on Pasta Bake for tea. So that's in the oven.
I have been sorting out my Anti virus on the laptop. I am supposed to be able to install it on my mobile, but I am not sure if I have done it the right way or not.
Scan app now on the mobile.
Also have an app that means that I can take credit and debit card payments from customers. All this technology is making my head spin. But I am embracing technology.

Took twin1 home, then went on to take the overlocker to the repairer. Alas not got the parts to fix it, etc and so I have had to buy a new one. But I did put in a request to them for the machine to be discounted by £30 if I bought it and took it there and then, and they agreed, so I got the better machine, for £199. (Has retailed before at £349), so a good deal. Luckily I have the credit card to fall back on. And as luck will have it, I am due a bill out anyday now, so this will probably be on the June payment one, if not the July one. We will see.
But that will give me time to earn some money to go towards it.
Now I just need to learn how to thread the new one!. etc. Rather tired now, about to go and visit Molly, so hopefully I will get a rest afterwards, if DS will keep DGD amused for me after school.
As I still have sewing jobs that will need doing. After a rest would be better.

So sorry that you had to leave early - i get this sickness and it is just overwhelming.

Hope you enjoyed opening your overlocker and had a sleep x
I enjoyed seeing you despite - we must get together soon x

Not a worry. Yes I got to have a rest for an hour. Then I set up the overlocker, finished the bunting that was part done.
I have been trying to keep my records on the laptop sorted out now.
Hope you feel better soon, Hugs, Moo

Last lot of bunting made.
Also made a tooth fairy pillow today, but the picture I took is not very good, so I haven't bothered to use it.

The new overlocker is very quiet compared to my old one. But will take some getting used to where all the controls etc are.

Still struggling to sleep properly. I am worn out before I even start the day.
I don't know what wakes me, but once I am awake, I cannot get back to sleep. My mind keeps on going around in circles. I wish that I could just stop thinking at times!.
The sun is shining at the moment. Not that I will know much about it, as today I work in the Unit.
DS is going to have to get up early today, as I intend to drop him off at twin2's, (we managed to get the key off of the girl from hell), and he is going to sort out his stuff. Ready to bring it back on my return trip from work. So its going to be a long day.
I am taking DGD to school, but Molly's daughter is collecting her for me.
I still haven't managed to get to the post office to collect a packet that wouldn't go through the door. Looks like it will be tomorrow before I do now.
Twin2 is sending me a message on Facebook every day. So far anyway.
Twin1 had holes in the soles of her shoes, and as it was tipping down with rain, has gone home in a pair of my boots. Doubt I will see them again anytime soon!. (not always handy having the same size feet!).
Catch up later.

Evening. The sun is out and it's a pleasant evening. I should be trying to do some gardening but my hip has been bad the last two days. I am trying not to take any meds as I have managed three weeks now without any. But it is quite touch and go really.
Still struggling to get decent sleep and am incredibly tired.
I will not be up very late now.
Several small sewing jobs to finish tomorrow. Then it's try and make enough stuff for my stall. The months are gambling on so fast and I am running out of time.
DS is home today, but he is up in his room. DGD is watching scooby Doo on the TV but I will be sending her up to bed very soon.
Must move the washing on while I remember.

Another day done at the Recycling centre.
I am finding it very tiring being back to work, having to be in places at a set time, and too having to work everyday. But I am not complaining, It would be odd if after all this time, and ill health, I had found it all plain sailing.
I have been lucky that I have found something that I can do that will give me an income.
Managed to invoice £136 so far this month, so I am well pleased with that, especially as its already been paid in.
(With having to replace the overlocker that's just as well!).

The council still haven't sorted out the benefits yet, but my housing are aware of the situation and we are hoping that it will be sorted before the next DD is due out.

DS has extra work this week, which is just as well as he still isn't getting any benefits since mid April. He has work at the Racecourse tonight, and Friday at Ladies day. So he has changed his shift at the pub with another member of staff. If only they could give him a few more hours, we wouldn't have to keep sorting out the signing on, (and off, and on etc).
I had to collect him from Towcester on Sunday afternoon, and then he went on the bus to see the Jobcentre yesterday . Then I dropped him off in Milton Keynes yesterday afternoon to see his friend. He was helping the family moving. But he has to go back to the jobcentre again tomorrow, so I am needed to collect him in the morning. So its TAXI driver Mum this week.
On Friday I have my other granddaughter for the morning as the Nursery is on a teacher training day, and Biggest still needs to go to work. I am supposed to be meeting my friend, that I haven't seen in best part of 6 months.! So I will need to do a bit of juggling of my time, once more.
Its DGD2's 2nd Birthday on Thursday. Where does the time go?
I cannot believe that she is going to be 2 already.
