Morning all, been quite busy. Have even dared to hang the washing outside:eek:
The agency that I got the job from yesterday now want me to go into their office so they can see my documents again as it has been over six months since I worked for them. This means a thirty mile round trip so I'm a bit narked to say the least! So my bathrooms will have to wait until tonight after I have picked the kids up. I was going to go swimming at lunch instead of at night so that I could do some knitting and catch up on GBBO! Oh well!
Hugs, sticks and spoons to all. Have a great dayCross Stitch Challenge Member ?Number 2013 challenge = to complete rest of millenium sampler.0 -

Frog munching morning
tried reading Fred with DD4 mashing her hands on the keyboard to post a load of gobble-de-gook.....lovely pics of your family Piggers
Emailed invoice from builder to insurance company.
Spoke to DD1 to get letter from Uni confirming she is in Halls so my Council can't wallop me for Poll Tax
Went to Council offices and got more recycling boxes (in meantime loading them up with stuff for DD2 at the weekend.
Spoke to a double glazing company about replacing the last two remaining single glazed windows. This house is so cold DD4 woke up with little purple cold hands although the rest of her was nice and pink. Credit card is going to take another major wallop.
Stripped my bed
Taken all dirty washing from my room into Utility
Fed WM x 2 and DW
Loo, sink, pedestal and mirror in ensuite given a really good clean
Scaled part of Mt Foldmore
A tray of Jackets cooking in oven
last bag of the young Skints gibble unpacked from the Wolves trip
By the evidence it looks like DD3 left her own room and went into DD1 room in the night, although she is going in there eventually, I haven't finished clearing DD1 stuff out and get it properly clean.
I keep forgetting DD1 is not here, I have been creeping and tip-toeing about so not to wake her.....time to for a mad dash with Simon le Bon at teenage volume before I have to go and get DS.
Anyone else for HH-Music from a mis-spent youth?The cold never bothered me anyway0 -
Skintbreeder... I haven't caught up with the thread, just nipped on to score off some uni work Ive done this morning and I saw your post.
I don't know if it helps, and your daughter may not have the same facility, but before I started uni I was given a user name and password to confirm my details on line using an evision system. If your DD has a similar system, there is a prepopulated letter you can print from there confirming your status as a student. The uni did this to save them the hassle of having to do one for every student, as obviously everyone needs one for council tax, bank applications etc.
If your daughter has a similar system, she may be able to print you off one straight away. I didn't know about this until id been at uni about 3 months!

I wonder if some of you could like our messy church page on fb https://www.facebook.com/messychurcheckington I want to get it on peoples news feed but need a few more likes. There aren't loads of posts so it shouldn't clutter you news feeds.
Have had quite a good morning.
- Physio is pleased with the range of movement in my shoulder, so we are now onto more strengthening exercises.
- Rang National Grid because the plumbers said they could smell gas at the end of our drive - nothing found, phew!
- Did half the shopping at s@1nsbugs and will do the rest for much less at @ld1 later
- carpenter has hung 2 doors and fitted skirting board in the lounge
- soup is cooked and about to be scoffed...
...then me time at genealogy group0 -
