I think you deserve a night off, bossymoo - you're usually one of the most active Flyladies in the team! You and skint make me feel lazy :eek:

But I just keep reminding myself that I am retired and need to conserve energy for the days I am lucky enough to spend with my DGSs and DGDs

We're visiting DGDs 1 and 2 and DGS3 on Friday :j

Watching the sewing programme...

I has done nuffink. I is lazy. Well, I has been to a mortgage appointment and to the cinema.

I is doing bog all t'nite too :rotfl:

Sorry for pinching your post bossymoo x

ionafan, bonnie_bumpkins, Dusty and others - maybe we should have a meet at the National Archives?

bossymoo

Actually, I did try out my new tester pots, on the stairway, which means I actually have to decorate now.

But not t'nite

Dusty, I am also schooled in excel spreadsheety thingamebobs. I'm happy to help too, I customise them in my paid wotsit.

Incidentally, I'm currently in negotiation with my boss man about doing some additional hours :eek:

hohum 1lb on won the raffle (nice but I don't really need 5 tins of beans!!!!)

Dustykitten

Been to the pub with an old friend for the evening, she needed a long chat, not sure I helped much but at least she got to talk.

Frodders - funny I said the same to Bonnie in a pm earlier

Bossy/Valli thank you very much for being willing to help me with excel, I think what I want to do is very simple but when I get stuck (I have never set anything up myself) then I'll shout

Mumto5 yes the one he had the skype interview for. Fingers crossed for your DH tomorrow, I hope it works.

Right to bed for me. Catch you all in the morning, bathroom cleaning for me.

ionafan

Good morning everyone :wave: Am I really the first up? It looks as if we're going to have another beautiful sunny day here, and for the first time in weeks the temperature at 6 a.m. was above freezing

I have already sorted papers on my desk for filing

To do today:
- email translator friend re dictionaries to ask if she wants any of my dictionaries
- shower
- breakfast
- tonight's meal into slow cooker
- dailies: kitchen including window, bathroom, bed (rest of house still clean and tidy)
- accompany DH to yet another horsepiddle appointment
- post 2 letters
- shopping: didn't do this yesterday as I found enough bread for today's breakfast, so decided to have a NSD and eat up bits from fridge :money:
- ring 6 estate agents in West Midlands re viewings on Friday (did I tell you that we had changed our minds about the house we were intending to buy?) - the logistics of fitting everything into the day are mind-boggling...
- ring university secondhand bookshop to ask if they'd buy my remaining dictionaries :money:
- if bookshop says yes, go there = afternoon out in a nice city
- make coffee cakes for DS1, DS2 and DD's families
- prepare material for the course I'm running on Monday
- go to folk dance club with DH if he feels well enough

That should keep me out of mischief :rotfl:

Jazee

Morning Ionafan, I'm up too but only just. A busy day here planned. DD and I are going to do a big shop and then spend the afternoon listing things on ebay, if I can sort out buy it now only. Also need to fit in two dog walks. I haven't looked at today's flying list yet but will do soon and will fit in what I can. My own list for the Easter hols isn't getting any shorter!

Have a great day everyone.
