The land of the eternal stripey list returns.

Hurrah to napkin folding - that'll set you off bouncing again!

Main road would be an utter deal breaker to me too - of course you're on a main road at the moment aren't you....*whistles*! :rotfl: (For those who are baffled, whilst a "main" road technically, it doesn't see much traffic!)

Is it really 6 months since the last doggie haircut? that's flown by! So cute they look freshly trimmed!

My man child is 19 today. That's quite exciting.

Oh wow Mara did they put it in - fab! - not been doing anything but paperwork and meetings today so not seen it!

Hope you're good - and not too run off your toes yourself.

EH yup a whole six months since the shorn ones were dragged in by our good selves.

Both behaved this time.

An environmentally-friendly 'hippo-birdy, two-shoes' to the man-child too. 19, how fab....................:T

Hope you sort out that pesky paperwork.

What's DD cooking for supper? Can I still make the boat in time??

A food co-operation between Greying and the Flowers family would be a sight to behold :j

As for paperwork ... I've started my accounts _pale__pale__pale_ :rotfl:

Hope your tea tasted lovely!

Hey there thank you he was making biodiesel at college today (not heard any explosions, thinking it went well) so was having a relatively quiet one the night before.

Mushroom spag bog was on the cards so you'd be very welcome - although the leftovers were scoffed tonight :T cauli cheese tomorrow if you get a wriggle on!

Hey up all

Yawns - tired today - always tired at the moment I hope that passes. Too old to be partying as hard as I did clearly!

Well first of the month and the rent is paid - all very squeaky in the land of my banks but a roof we have for the next month. I will be paid at some convenient time to someone with the quiver and checkbook in hand, until then I watch the pennies and wait.

Mr R (as in Rock) god is home alone doon sooth so its been a quiet week. I didn't return with my new husband, need time to adjust and all that. He's off to deepest darkest KC land soon on a course. Darn sarf I think you call it (all Englandshire to me)

Working all weekend.

A bit of a spendy day today work lunch meetings (claimable), chum coffee (not claimable but at 2.10 for a cuppa, I think I'll survive). There is a benefit to not eating cake you see, you don't buy it.

Cupboards/fridges are full so need to do a meal plan for next week. I'd go pick some veggies from work but we ALL ate them all at wellyfest. I've been good since using myfitnessap - and my pedometer app - trying to keep the eats and the activity balanced. As I love to eat - I need to keep moving alot to stop myself sticking in doorways. For the first time in around 8 years my weight is just under 9st and my trousers actually now sometimes do up. I am not super skinny by any stretch of the imagination as I am also a short a&se. And, as I don't buy clothes very often - the ones I've been wearing haven't fitted me very well for a long time, at least I can now do them up again.

I need to make up a food budget and meal plan for Nov. No scheduled trips so I'm thinking that might make it a bit easier. Only one night out planned at a chums, so nothing too epic planned.
I need to book a flight for Dec for a meeting
I need to keep close eye on funds as there's not much
I also need a count down to moving debt pay off plan/save up plan.
I need to write up work expenses (did invoice for one job today)
I need to write up time sheet for other work
I need to keep up the walking (5.3 miles today)
I need a plan for the next few months until we hit the slippery slope of moving.
I need to update my cv/linkedin and start to begin to think about looking for a new job. And checking my references don't mind me using them. I know they remember me............but whether or not they'll want to hear from me or not - now there's a question.

But right now, I need some sleep.

Working all weekend - be a quite full on one - so have a good one yourselves

PS - I've just read Buffy's mini diary - which is really exciting for her planning xmas I wish her well - but I'm so glad I'm having xmas off this year, one less thing to think about.

PPS - Napping sucks, it stops you actually, you know, sleeping.
