    *cleared the top of the walnut chest of drawers in the bedroom and got rid of shampoo / skin toner than I'm allergic to and will never use

    I was sarcasm embodied embb :D and I think she knew it :p

    Dinner made, kids just finishing theirs. They love stuffing, and chicken. So I've coated the chicken in stuffing mix and yep, you've guessed it "I don't like it!" Both have been told that is today's dinner and there is nothing else. Which is kind of true, lol. We didn't exactly buy much food yesterday.

    MIL just called and asked me to get some packed lunch stuff in for Wednesday as they are taking the littlies out for the day. I think I'll do a meal plan later.

    Done a bit more in the garage but looking at the shed, I can't really put anything else in :eek:

    Swimming stuff had a rinse in WM and now out on the line. I haven't stopped and there is still stuff everywhere, lol.

  • Oh my god, I've cleared out my makeup box. Some of that stuff was easily 15 years old :eek:

    That's nothing; I have several bottles of nail varnish that are at least 35 years old.:rotfl:

    We are partway through the horrible job of cleaning the deep fat fryer. :eek:

    Ted has gone home,:( and Lizzie has arrived to fill the dog-shaped gap.:T

    Ah, that is a large part of the reason why I threw away the deep fat fryer _pale_

    Thanks for the neck healing vibes! It got better as the day went on and by last night I was able to. Rush my hair! Lol! We went out for dinner with friends so late in bed and then was up at 6am to do the car pot. Felt shattered and had a thick head! Obviously just a headache mot due to the alcohol!
    Anyway some stuff was flown at the carbon sale and I came back with £89 which went straight into the saving pot!

    I did come away with some mr men books and a Harold the helicopter, and a couple of DVDs for the kids. Hubby always tells me to come back without buying anything and with nothing left in the boot. He thinks if it is all really cheap it will all go! Every year we have the same conversation!!

    I'm done in the garage :T big frog just about complete, bar the gifting of DH tool cabinet (plus need some help to decide what contents to keep) and the freezer, which is defrosted and cleaned and in a tidy corner awaiting sale.

    I've done a meal plan, made brownies with the kiddies and written a shopping list.

    We've no bread, and since my meal plan starts tomorrow :o I don't know what to feed them tonight. Oops. I hate mealtimes. Can't we all just have soup?
