  • Have a good un L ;) and lets hope you get sun sun sun. I'll wave too just holler when you're near.

    Tidied up after tea, had a walk, unloaded car and did my floor mission.

    Lunches done for tomorrow and tea is out of freezer.

    Had a look for more wood, no joy.

    3 eggs, several courgettes and more spinach than I really want to think about.

    Have a good evening!

    A wee list - some work and then some home stuff to do.

    Banks
    Meals from cupboards
    NSD aside petrol
    Pick some veg
    Clear a bit of the front bedroom - I'd say its a hot spot but it definitely isn't very hot the state its in now.
    Walk les mutts later
    Chop some wood, its needing done
    Do more paperwork
    Try and speak to someone about my hours........
    Look for a place for the giant vase

    Leftovers from yesterday
    Fill in insurance form
    Email scottish registry
    Phone drs about scan
    DS has a cheque to bank
    Skype/make plan to talk to kids

    That should do eh?

    Flylady mission today is to clean the cooker top. I have two cookers, this is not fair. ;)

    And I did manage to do the floor yesterday and clear the table and actually put some flowers on it.

    So far so good.

    Do you think there's a flylady for the garden. I could so do that job!!

    Have a good un folks.

    Womble monthly wages in paid money to CC (petrol and food) and the other cc (holiday) and to kids uni account.

    No money left - lol well maybe 120 which like we've all said could be worse.

    Weekly wages should hit account soon. Updated spread sheet and I'm only 100 quid off my target for this month already. Making hay whilst the sun shines I guess eh.

    Have a good un.

  • I've been offered 4 days a week until further notice. Not talked t&c's yet but been told they (team) would like to keep me permanently.

    That was nice.

    Some free wood
    Some cones
    Some weeded out prunella (self heal) which I want to establish in my lawn.

    Hope you're all good!

    Off to see the chooks then do a few chores.
