    :j :T :T :T Well done, biggest step is that bit, even bigger than paying it off in my opinion! Cautious, I always am, anything like that would be spread between bins, sometimes I burn bits of them too, can't be too careful these days. Oh and the resisting signing for another one even if you'll get £5 off :rolleyes:

    Good luck for the move, Shell, I hope it all goes smoothly. Not many people would have paid out to fix the cooker at this late stage, :A what a nice person you are.

    Well done Solway-kid for scissoring the card.

    Have pulled up my indoor lawn, after a lot of soul searching.
    23_28_101.gifActually it would have been a lot of trouble bringing the lawnmower indoors and Lil_me doesn't ever seem to put indoor grass cutting on the list.

    All done and dusted here for the night, not such a big job really. I'm glad it's bedroom day tomorrow, I've currently got the 'cream with muddy cat paw print duvet set' on and tomorrow it'll be swapped for the brown one. I suppose I could've changed it sooner but it just wasn't 'bedroom day' yet!

    Thanks for the applause lil_me. Feel quite smug.

    Cheerio 'til tomorrow. Off for a bath. (That I won't wash out 'til Thursday)

    :confused: Indoor lawn, now that's one I would have never ever thought of.

    Sitting room etc done, well quickly, seems pointless being the holidays but did it anyway.

    Waiting for DP to get back so we can finally have dinner, I'm flipping starving :mad:

  • I'm losing the plot - indoor lawns? Fish in Pig-pen's middle room? I had to double check my peppermint tea to make sure nothing else had slipped in!
    I'm going to bed - only managed to 3/4 de-clutter the sitting room, scrape food debris off dining chairs and sweep the floor - but that was a LOT of work, and it has been a very busy day.
    Please note that I am now a very very important person: as of today I can add 'Secretary of Melrose Mother & Toddler Group' to my CV....
    I'll try not to let it go to my head...;)
