    Natty, hope your not too sore. xx

    I've got the filing cabinet in and all paperwork sorted. Only took all evening but at least it's done. Still left with odds and ends which i'll sort tomorrow.

    DD off tomorrow so an extra hour in bed or I could put it to good use by getting some flying done in peace. We'll see....

    So only physio tomorrow for DD and usual school runs so I plan to get a good bit of flying done and some charity work done. :D

    Right best get bed made and get some sleep.

    Evening all

    Just back from the pub, treated my friend to dinner after her stressful time and to celebrate.

    Bother just realised I have not remade our bed so I'll do that and then collapse in it.

    No paid stuff tomorrow but busy day still with haircut, DS3 at schools athletics and my mother's birthday, must go out and get some flowers in the morning and bake a cake.

    Natty ouch x

    He shovelled up the crap I swept into a heap in the kitchen.. promptly spilled it all over the floor so reswept and binned.. I've done everything else that has been done... see list!

    Run DW on the hottest wash it does with either one of the cleaning things from supermarket/engineers or some soda crystals.. tbh I find the soda crystals don't work.. but it may just have fat clogging up the pump and pipework which is the usual culprit for not cleaning properly.

    Take out the arms and filters and give them a good scrub and if you tap the end on the arms the debris inside moves to one end.. you need to get out any bits stuck in there.

    hth :D

    Can't sleep. Rowed with DH and feel as depressed as I did before our holiday.

    Work today then swimming after school. I will get the little ones maccy d's on the way home because DS1 has raided the fridge.

    Still no Case. Think I've been given an incorrect PIR number because the world tracing service doesn't recognise it. I need to ring the baggage handling company again - the ones who gave me the number in the first place. I've stated before how spectacularly unhelpful they were so I'm not looking forward to this task.

    I hope you don't have too many bruises Natty. Sounds painful.

    Good day wishes for everyone.

    Morning all. I've been trying to catch up with cleaning the insides of the windows before the paid stuff each day this week. Oh my, they look ok closed but the dirt in the grooves when they are opened! The only job I've done from the list is wiping the paintwork in kitchen & diner.

    Right, onwards and upwards. Hope everyone has a great day.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Well I am hoping to survive the rest of the week :-

    Tomorrow is decision day for DH's job!

    That was bad enough - but at 1.15 yesterday we found out the reason for an unannounced 15 minute extension to lunchtime (it really would help to come and tell a supervisor )- OFSTED arrive today!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    School's displays seem to be full of spelling /grammar mistakes - I wonder if they will be noticed....

    Then it's my mum's do at the weekend..... and my confirmatory e-mail has vanished!
