    Solwaykid - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! Hope you have a nice day!

    Right, must dash don't really have time to be on here but wanted to give birthday wishes, always come online for something and get distracted on here! Its only 8.30am I've already done the dallies, made tea for later, made DH a chicken and bacon salad for lunch and fish and eggs for breakfast - I'm shattered. Off to play with baby for a bit and get my bum into gear! Have a good day!
    Lightbulb moment 15th Feb 2007:doh: Now Debt Free and plan on it staying that way!

    Baby on board!:D

    :bdaycake: Happy Birthday SolwayKid

    Just up and about to go tackle the bathroom and then get on with my hugest list.

    I start work 3 days a week next week part time for the month so need to get on top before I do start. If you see me on here before 10.30 please send a huge kick....

    Happy Birthday to Solwaykid. You have my permission for a day off. :bdaycake:


    Anyway, i was up a bit earlier than normal as DH woke up and felt the urge to get up even though baby was sock on, so we spent some time talking, putting away dishes from the draining board, he emptied the kitchen bin for me, and had a lovely cuddle with the baby while i made breakfast. It's nice when he doesn't have to rush off.

    WM is on, probably the only one today as i want to get out and about. I'm glad it is the bathroom today as DH shaved his head last night, so i could do with running the hoover round the spare room and the bathroom, and dealing with all the stray bits of hair and ring of grime around the bath.

    I'm just going to try and get on if my beautiful boy is happy for me to do that. 1st job get dressed, and then see where we go from there.

    also want to try and leave downstairs looking good before we go away tomorrow so i can take the bank holiday easy and try and go out somewhere. ;)

    Have a beautiful day, and don't forget to vote. :D

    Michelle, x

    Back from the school run, have had a quick potter around and I'm just having a warm icky cup of coffee (no idea why it tastes icky :confused:) then I'm going to put the washing out and get on with the ebay listings. I've even got my timer on standby so I can set it for 30mins at a time to do ebay or I'll be listing things in my sleep again :rotfl:

    Been busy already, I've even been to vote & the Co-op BEFORE school :eek: :
    • Dailies
      • [strike]Beds[/strike]
      • [strike]Bathroom S&S[/strike]
      • Dishes - Hot water is too hot to they're sorted out and ready to wash once the water has cooled down.
      • Kitchen S&S - After I've washed up.
      • WM - just about to put it out
      • Uniforms for tomorrow
      • Evening Meal - pasta carbonara so I can make a packed lunch of pasta for DD for school tomorrow.
    • Ironing - Not urgent, so not a problem if it doesn't get done.
    • Ebay listings
    I said I'd post some pics of my ebay piles. This is how much is already listed (storage boxes from Argos are wonderful, but the free ones from the Co-op are even better :rotfl: ):
    on.jpg

    and this is what is to go on :
    todo.jpg

    I figure I should break the 100 items barrier easily this time around :eek: I already have 40 items listed so it won't be too hard :rotfl:

    Right, need to go and put this washing out ASAP as it's not so bright or warm so far today. :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!
