Living room now looking beautiful again - kitchen still looks like a bomb site.
Dinner tonight was pizza.
Store bought £1.50 pizza, frozen.
Served on the torn up packaging that it came in as all of our big plates need washing (Ok we only have 6 but thats still pretty bad!)...hoping my mother-in-law-to-be doesn't hear of this neglect! :eek: :rotfl:GC2012: Nov £130.52/£125

Thinking of all the poorly ones, and those with poorly relatives.
Great news for DS, dusty!
DD isn't quite right either. I'm wondering if she has a water infection. She's had an accident today at nursery, and had some near misses at the weekend. This is unheard of for her. She was quite hysterical at bedtime, so not like her at allwill see what kind of a night she has.
DS on the other hand had a fab day. Was training day so he spent the day with his friend, who's mum offered to have him for the day. They only live at the end of the road. It was his first time playing at a pals house without me there. Although I was WFH so nearby. He had an absolute ball. Then had swimming lesson and swam across the pool on his back without armbands :T
I've got loads of work done, plus done the downstairs floors and some tidying. I've put together two packed lunches, then realised I'm only in the office one day :doh: Now I'm just waiting for Mr A delivery. Then its shower and bed for me, early start tomorrow (DD permitting, but MIL is here so help is at hand).
It could be an interesting night...Bossymoo

Hello all
no cleaning done - I have, however, been to Morries and used the staff shopping day discount to stock up on essentials.
I can't fit everything in the cupboard!
WOOT!
a collectible item has a bid on fleabay, finally.
Als have returned two bags of clothing to colleague as, clearly, they ain't gonna fetch her a small fortune - she's going to take them to an agency.
So, all in all, excellent flingage!Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

DH has already done some of this (who am I to complain?). I will try to do some when I get up tomorrow or perhaps before I go to bed in the morning.
I have written ALL of my Christmas cards this evening and even have one stamped and ready to post on my way out in the morning. I would have already posted it but the post box has been moved and can't be accessed overnight.
