    Morning Flypeople,

    Thanks for the list Lil_me, you seem to have an awful lot of juggling to do at the mo but it's appreciated by us all. Glad too that the fishing expedition was a partial sucess.
    That's some kick you've got Shirleypark, right into next week!

    I'm looking forward to this week at work. Awkward Person is on holiday so my life will be easier.
    It's forcast rain all week too so I haven't the excuse of the garden to keep me from Flying inside.
    I'll post my list later.

    Have a good Monday all.

    Jumping in again this week, still need the focus. :D
    In addition to the list, I'm going to be making up a batch of fudge in the microwave and a fruit teabread in the BM. I'll do the micro clean after fudge making and the BM can be working it's magic while I get on with the list.
    Thanks lil_me :T :T

    Morning all :hello: and :grouphug: to everyone :D

    I've had about 5 hours sleep and my coffee making skills seem to have disappeared :confused: Another awful cup this morning, and its definitely me, when OH makes them its fine :o Oh well, I'll just drink water all day instead - it'll do me some good ;)

    Ebay listings finished last night and we've cleared the £100 mark :j Don't know the exact figure just yet as I have to update my little book & dispatch the items but it says on "My Summary" £123.94 in the last 31 days :D:D:D I have invoices to make up (multiple purchases from the same person but I forgot to set up the "postage discount" bit :o:eek: ), and I need to go into town at some point to buy more brown paper :eek:

    I better get this written down :
    • Dailies
      • Beds
      • Bathroom S&S
      • Dishes - 1 load already done, another 1 at least to do :mad:
      • Uniform
      • Evening meal - sausage casserole (Slowcooker ;)) and mash with peas
      • WM - bedding. Will go in when I get back from school.
    • Ebay
      • Items to dispatch
      • Invoices for multiple purchases
      • Update notebook
    • Ironing - only a few bits that weren't dry enough last night ;)
    • Kitchen
      • Clear & clean sides
      • Clean floor
      • Sort fridge
      • Window & sil
      • Door / drawer / appliance fronts
    • Declutter
      • Paperwork / filing.
    I best get on, I know there is more but my brain hurts :o :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!
