    FROGGIE CHOMPED!:D

    Mr LW has helped me weed the Receipts file; all the stuff pertaining to items we no longer have, or that are very old, or for "consumables" has been shredded, and I've reclaimed a bunch of plastic wallets for re-use elsewhere.:T:T:T

    Dailies done.
    Chicken casserole in slow cooker. Smells lovely.
    A few more bits and pieces for the lists.
    Quickly went out and got a bit shopping.

    Wrapped up on the sofa now catching up on tv I recorded during the week

    Stay safe and warm everyone.

    Not much Flying here today. DH on an archery training course today and tomorrow so one of my school mum friends took DS to a swimming party so I didn't have to go out in the ice (don't like driving on ice - especially whilst under the affects of Valium :o). Done WM, beds, DW, tidied up a bit .... that's it. Then this pm DS watched Star Wars again and I fell asleep on the sofa! Popped the kids to the park for a bit of sledging and DH got back at the same time as us so we're about to have a cuppa.

    Skint well done for standing up to ex-MIL; her DD doesn't sound like she can cope in the 'adult world'. I get my children to help even though they're 6 and 10 and DD can even cook quite nicely now. Do you have any friends in the area who can help you at all?

    GI well done on doing the tax return :T. Also to you too Lame Wolf! :T

    Everyone seems to have done really well today - maybe you are all making up for all my laziness!!

    Some excellent Frog-munching going on - well done ladies! (and assistants;))

    I have simmered one batch of oranges. I'm a bit cross; one orange was rotten - and they are in date. I shall be back to CS as soon as is convenient;)

    DD has baked.

    Ironing done.

    Home again! Been up the street making a snowman in DS friends garden. The kiddies pulled each other around on the sledge and generally got covered in snow. Until DD started to feel the cold. Bless her, she did so well, she's only 2 but joined in with the older ones with the snow shovel! We were invited to play inside once her cheeks were turning blue :eek:

    So, the two little laddies had every car and truck out and made a giant carpark, and the girls (2 and nearly 7) played jigsaws, dolls and shopping. Thankfully the older girl likes "babies" so was more than happy to entertain DD and was asking if they could sleep over before we left :D

    Very quiet here now, chuggington DVD on, and pile of food and drink in front of them, hopefully they are starving and shattered after all the exercise they've had today.

    It felt a lot colder walking down the road at 4.30 than it did walking up it at 1.30 - suspect a lot of it will freeze overnight. We are going NOWHERE tomorrow! And they sky looked "full". Not sure if we are forecast another dose tonight...

    Warm and cosy vibes all round!

    Thanks Valli - I was sorting the kitchen too.

    In my HHC, I managed to wash up, put the WM on, clean the microwave, wipe the worksurfaces, toaster and kettle, and put the dinner on! Nothing off the list, but the kitchen looks much better now!

    Did quite well in the kitchen and have sorted out two long over due drawers.

    DS3 coat he put on yesterday which was too small washed, I'll list that on ebay - 31 watchers on one of my items (no bids yet though)

    Just need to go and help DS1 with his CA application now and then a quick tidy up before sitting down until I have to go and get DS2 from work, tired again today.
