I've signed too. Misread at first thinking it was closed, but its 4th feb 2015...
Mum has been, she has taken stepdads drill back, plus a cardi I borrowed ages ago and a bed rail we no longer need :T more things exiting the house, hurrah!
Fingers crossed my cousin will come for the cot tonight or tomorrow...
I've made dinner, there's enough for tonight too for me - littlies won't want it - not keen on mixed peppers - all the more for me :T I shall have to think what to make for them.
Ooh, Auntie Ionafan, I have made your free-from cake. I missed out the sweetener that goes with the quark and used WW hot choc drink powder instead, oh and I didn't have quark so used ff fromage frais - I've just cut some (mine didn't sink either) and topped with a blob of the fromage frais and a dab of vanilla bean paste. Mmm. Might add a dash more hot choc though, I used enough for a smallish cup and I'd say this is a 6 portion sponge...Bossymoo

Bathroom done, except for the floor. 2 x WM, 2 x TD. Put a call in to Scottish Power as they haven't taken my D/D out this month for some strange reason. Going to reload the large white appliances now and put my fleecy mattress protector back on the bed. Bedding has been replaced and is just waiting on the above item to assemble it all back together.
Time for a cuppa and then hoovering and mopping of all floors before the school run - care to join me?Decluttering junk and debt in 2016

Nursery called, she kept crying until they took her down to the bigger kids room where they did a dance for her and got her laughing. She is now sitting on the floor nicely playing.
I've hoovered everywhere around everything, washed bathroom floor, cleaned bath, sink, loo, started online shop, looking into dinner, had some macaroni left over and a soup is warming.0 -

If it has gone it is done. That was up to lunchtime apart from HHI done just now.
Also did lots of paper frog eating - that is until I made the mistake of going into the back garden and ended up doing a tutu wearing hippopotamus (out of Fantasia) act slipping on the paving and onto my back - it only took a second from upright to flat! Luckily I don't think I have done much damage but am very shaken. That's the benefit of being well padded!!!! LOL
Not doing any more now but will catch up with the Fred.

Aww roxy, thats good to know she's a bit happier!
I've had a more productive afternoon, despite a communication mix up which I fear was my fault. Boss thinks other party is being awkward (and to be fair, they didn't call me either!) but I think there is bad blood there from previously. It's not a huge issue and no effect on the outcome IYSWIM
I've just called v0daf0ne as my contract is up. Due to the phone issue over new year I don't want an upgrade, so I've done a bit of searching and they've offered me a £10.50 sim only plan :money: so very happy with that. Still need to envir0ph0ne the reconditioned one, though
Dinner sorted for small people, bangers and mash, then bath and bed for them!
I put away my decorating stuff at lunchtime. I finished it two weeks agogarage looks tidier for it though
Feeling much better now, thanks for all the hugs. Going to get my babies for real live huggles soonBossymoo
