bathroom Done on Sunday, happily.
Much better day at work today, and satisfyingly, two badly behaved students both turned up for detention. They were a little surprised I made them do work. Apparently they just sit there in silence in other detentions. I pointed out they were kept behind because they had NOT done the work in lesson. Fingers crossed for an improvement tomorrow!
Lovely last lesson, as my colleague bravely made pancakes for the Year 8 class - 30 of them! They were very appreciative, and also did some great work on pancake day in France.
Dusty I am hoping that things soon start improving for your mother, she's having such a rough time of it.It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0 -
Looked at money and shuffled again, % interest rate are c..p, it seems our esteemed leader reckons these current accounts some banks do, give up to 4% interest on the balances, so off to read about them and what you have to do to qualify, may be worth moving my monthly salary into one of them............
I'm a bit of pro at this so shout if I can help in anyway. Unrelated but maybe heading near you on Sunday, Tebworth in your direction? I'll wave.
Frizzle, I'd change agents, they can't be that bothered about selling your place.
...and my brain is dead - oh a spark - well done HB on your curtain triumph.
Went to Mum's got the stuff she needed, took it to the hospital. Spoke to Sis on the phone, she obviously is not coping with any of this at all. Ho hum.
Old WM should be collected in 15 by somebod off freecycle. I've got 45 minutes now to be productive in before cricket but 10 minutes digesting is in order.

In my flinging this morning, I gave to charity some books which I will never read again. In one was a piece of paper keeping a page for me. When checking it was the fixtures list for a team I used to play for for 2006/7 which means that not only did I have no intention of reading the book then, but I still brought it with me when we moved nearly 8 years ago and put it on a shelf here.
And I thought I'd downsized.
Ironing and shredding for me in the morning. Unusually I don't feel tired tonight, I'm usually in bed at 10pm and up at 6am.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
A chill out night in front of the tv tonight.
Dusty- I am going to see what they say when (if?) they call tomorrow. She says she will ring but I wonder if she will actually do it! Then going to look for other alternatives. It does make me cross. They get so much money and I'm not sure what they actually do. As far as I can tell- stick it in right move and see what happens!
Anyway, list for tomorrow...
Advertise some things for selling
Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room
Remove any cobwebs from the ceiling/ontop of units
Tuesday - Bathroom and Study/Pc Area
Hoover and wash the floors
Do some filing or shreeding
Remove everything from the bathroom cabinet, wipe inside, sort and replace the contents
Half term next week (at least in the south) do you need to make appointments/plans?
Not bad! Will try and get this done tomorrow afternoon in between finishing work and the school run!Grocery challenge-
