Hiya everyone
Pigpen hope your dd's interview goes well.
My dh had an interview yesterday and has been offered the job today so were really happy 😊 here today.
The the girls and I have been to aldi for a fresh shop they're eating me out of house and home as its half term. Other than that there playing outside with the kids from the back, I end up feeding the street lol.
Yesterdays laundry has been put away, todays washing done, washing up done and hoovered all downstairs.
Tonight I have a tiller coming to quote me for my bathroom.
Other than that I'm working on stock for my shop.
Have fun

DD2 has a job interview tomorrow.. everything crossed because she is trying to cost me a fortune.My dh had an interview yesterday and has been offered the job today so were really happy here today.
Hurry-up-baby vibes to your DD, mrs-mp.
I have spent the morning on some paperwork which has taken me far longer than it should havebut at least it's another bit in the jigsaw. Why is it that receiving one email always seems to result in my having to send at least 4 more?
My DH went back to bed after breakfast and has dozed for most of the morning. Perhaps he'll get up if I tell him it's nearly lunch time.
I need to hoover downstairs, and I'd love to spend the afternoon in the garden.... See you later x0 -
*Managed to whizz round and get a few things in supermarket before gym. Anyone else struggling with hay fever? I usually get itchy eyes and a headache, but have had a really sore and blocked up nose this week, so had to stock up on more tablets.
*Body Balance was hot as air con in gym still broken. Instructor said hadn't we noticed how much further we can bend as we're warm? Sadly I have never been bendy, and if I was bending more it would only be because I was squishing my stomach harder.........
*One lot of washing in machine, dry lot put away.
*Put hanging baskets I planted up yesterday outside. I hate that hardening off period when you seem to be constantly moving things in and out of the greenhouse trying to predict the weather. Lucky to have one I know.
Most of today I suspect will be in the garden.
Haven't lots of us got birthdays this week, Honeybear I have a vague idea yours is soon? I seem to have a day off for mine (Mon) but nothing actually planned; Mr N has taken the Friday off as my mum's coming to stay.
Enjoy the sun everyone.Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.0 -

I am an avid reader of this form however I don't ever post myself, usually just reading your posts is enough to get me motivated, however i really fancy joining in if you guys don't mind...?
Today has just been gardening I'm afraid, but our brown wheely bin is due for collection today so I wanted to cut our front hedge and try to cram as much as possible in, well i have paid for it after all!
Havent had our windows cleaned outside since we moved in 2 years ago, (I know thats really bad!) ad while I was pruning our hedge I noticed a window cleaner over the road, popped out to ask him how much he would charge and he is doing it as we speak for 35 quid incuding conservatory which I thought was fairly reasonable (including cleaning all the green off the frames). The dogs are going nuts at the man at the window lol!
Just sitti g down for a quick cuppa and cool off, the. back outside to prune some shrubs, the list will have to wait for the time being...Mortgage overpayments 2014 £175

Welcome. And I'm sure we agreed years ago that gardening counted as flying........
I've managed HHC as I noticed after finishing post-gym coffee that it was almost lunch time! So I decluttered a few actions on emails; put lots of things from various rooms back to their rightful home; hung the washing out; watered some plants and sorted out my library books for tomorrow - including emailing our friendly mobile library man to ask if her would bring the next 2 in a series I'm reading.
So now it really is lunch time.Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.0 -
Mrs MP - any news of that baby yet ? Sending hurry-up vibes
Lx
Funnily enough I got a phone call about an hour ago:T I knew DD was in labour yesterday as she was in the birth pool when I rang last evening , but apparently pushing was proving difficult so she was transfered to the hospital, I was getting worried as I hadn't heard anything overnight and then no phones were being answered this morning.
But DGS arrived just before midnight weighing 9lb 9oz, now wonder she had a job pushing him out!!!!!:eek: both mum and babe are doing very well. Can't wait to meet him, she said none of the babygrows she got fit him as he's so big
Better get knitting the next size up
I've been phoning and texting family so can breathe again now:jSPC~12 ot 124
In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind, be more kind my friend, try to Be More Kind0 -
Congrats Mrs MP (and 'ouchie')
Welcome KJ
Congrats on the new job (Mr Dawnrose)
Good luck to Miss Piglet for the job.
Meters read. DD not changing - could've been worse; could've gone up. heating has been off this week and TD not in use so maybe next month...
