Carrot cake in the oven

Thanks you both.

Well I have been eating sugar free sweets from Holland and garret again tonight. Liquorice flavour. There are warnings about a laxative effect, however they need a wind warning. I've been almost doubled over and the swooshing noises from inside my belly drowned out the TV. Came up to bed doubled up - luckily my warm wheat bag had the desired effect, thankfully DH away with work tonight. Won't be having a whole box of those again in one go. Shame as they are lovely going in. :rotfl:

Well got up with gusto today!

Have decluttered under the stairs. Sorry Mr Spider, Whitefeather may not be pleased.

Have an idea to revamp a huge hamper for gloves and things at the bottom of the stairs (rather than the tiny box and carrier bag there now). Also cleared out a blanket box in my bedroom. Am now wondering whether to use that for holiday things as it's hard to get into and would keep things out of the way. I'm still considering the bookcase move, but would need to figure a way of keeping it presentable as it faces the front door, but I'm keen to move it and the glass shelf into the kitchen.

Just discovered a few bits to sell in the spare room - tv, old sky box. don't know if they'll fetch much but may be worth a go. Also a pine bedside cabinet. Don't really want to flog it for nothing. I wonder if I could use it for a side table in the living room instead of my 99p table. Worth a try.

The spare room feels better now I can see the floor but more decluttering to be done once the selling of things and moving around has happened. Feels like a better flow now - Almost like feng shui.

Dive gear, ski gear and grass mats all disappeared into a blanket chest that's reasly hard to access. Why didn't I think of that before. I guess sometimes you need some space for focus.

Wow check you out today Missus. You're really feng shui'ing the place up/ Decluttering is good for the soul. I love taking the decs down and seeing my uncluttered house again. I keep getting a buzz out of my living room when I walk in

Yay to finding places to put things. Obviously a clear head today

Just read the cost of your bracelet and died a little bit inside for you... huuuuuuuuuuge hugs. I am SURE it will appear somewhere... xxx

Thank you Lilty. Yes, it's a bit of a bummer. :eek:

Glad you are okay though, that's more important!

Got rid of a couple of bits this afternoon to neighbours and SIL. Car is loaded up so I hope the charity shop is open tomorrow.

Going to light the fire in a mo and snuggle down for the night.

Hope you are comfortable.

Xx

Gone fishing, instead of just a wishing.... :rotfl::D

Lol

Hey you

Am snug in my sick bed with an electric blanket and Jelly showing off her amazing shape and colour skills on an Alien app on my phone. She loves it and it was a 1 day free thingy!!

I don't know if you have seen it, bu Steam is offering YNAB for a 1 day only £7.49. I have never ever seen it cheaper than £15 on their biggest sales. AloofDragon has bought it as a New Years gift to herself. I am so glad you got a years free, but we need to remember this time next year to check and see if they are offering it again. If you love it as much as I do, then you could buy it then for hardly anything and make yourself very happy

I was naughty yesterday. I spent my Christmas money which I earmarked for going towards the mac, on new underwear & a half price oak chopping board... nowt like living it large eh :rotfl: £24 oops!

The macbook air has gone up in price twice since I started looking at it on their site I think I may have to buy it elsewhere! xx

Lovely to hear from you and that all sounds good - lecture blankets and aliens. Chopping boards and undies :rotfl:

I must figure out how Unidays and apple works. Going through Apple got me 3 years warranty, plus you can do the 0% finance thing. I gotta mine from Curries though on 0% so things can be done just as cheaply elsewhere. Give me a nudge as I may be a bit quiet in next few days as we all have some time off together.

Take care and keep in touch.

Xxxxx

ps,really am off to town now - all those jobs to do

liltdiddylilt

Days off together sounds brilliant. I hope you really enjoy it xx

Didn't think about the warranty. And have been debating the 0% thing over and over again... Will have to figure this out!

Not wanting to lead peeps astray but we covered the cost of a return flight to ny with the savings we got on the macbook!
