Morning everyone!
Well last day before dh returns to work so planning on a lazy day with huge sunday roast.
We just go to bed early tonight dh hasnt got up before 9.30 this fortnight, he is so going to struggle to get up a 5 in the morning!!
Good luck crazychick on bagging that hoilday, im sure something will turn up, in answer to ds1 pe kit, think i will just put short,tshirt and trainers in on first day then wait to see whats on his timetable, i cant see he will need it on first day but you know what hes like for worrying he will want to take it just incase!!
I must get on with sorting uniforms out, still need trousers and shoes and some more pe kits and bags. This hoilday is going so quickly it will be back to school before we know it!!!!!!!!! Which im kind of looking forward to as it will be the first time in 9 years that i will have had no kids at home in the day!!!
Have lots planned as i will have more time for baking, ebaying ect.
Have a lovely sunday all

Morning all........((((((((HUGS))))))))))) if you need one..................
Well its a horrible nasty wet morning here, we were planning to go to the allotment, but afraid its been put back until after HRH has been tomorrow. I looked at the notice yesterday, and she has asked for points for the adgenda to be sent to her assistant...............which means she will only answer questions on what she wants to answer questions on................I am still fighting my corner over the loft access, am waiting for the fire officer to come back to me and also the SHO to come up with an answer re storage when we have to take the things out of our loft space........hey ho......
I am planning on doing some cutting out this morning, I want to make two more runners, have sorted out some fabric, it needs ironing first and I have comandeered the table in the sitting room. I also need to clear my sewing table in the bedroom, its getting cluttered, OH is using it as a dumpoing ground which I need to nip in the bud, otherwise I have to move all his clobber before I can start sewing, which does nothing for mt temper!!!!
Pork for supper, going to do the chops in the Remouska, saves me having the oven on...........not sure what we are going to have for pudd though........
I applied yesterday for attendance allowence for OH, he has syncopy which means that his blood pressure can suddenly drop and he collapses........not easy to live with, I have to go out with him which is very constricting. When he goes to bowls he has a friend with him in the car. Fortunately he does get a warning that its going to happen, so can pull over, it has never happened in the car, its always when he is standing or walking........if he does go out on his own I am like a cat on hot bricks, but I feel that he has to be as independant as possible..............its a bit wearing on the nerves I can tell you!!!!!!!!!!!! If we do get the cash it will help a bit.
Right off to get going this morning, otherwise I will be on here all morning and get nothing done.......................September grocery budget........trying for £80, not sure if I will make it though!!!!! I certainly did not last month, lost track of the final bill. Will do better this month honest.
Tesco £57.13
Petrol £10.000 -

Boring old stuff really nothing much exciting to say im afraid!

Morning all:hello:
OH has taken ds2 swimming, dd is busy making a hat out of card and glitter and ds1 is only just stirring from his bed -the transition from child to teenager is accelerating at an alarming rate, he was 12 in July :eek:
I'm planning to boil and bake a piece of gammon for lunch. I think I'll glaze it with my hm Seville orange jelly. We'll have it with baked spuds and salad. gooseberry fool for pud.
Cheese or beans on toast for supper

Morning everyone!! Lazy one here today aswell, need to stay in as i have no money, and when i go out even with no intention of spending i always spend at least £5. Had a lovely day yesterday, ds3 was with my sister all day(he has autism) and it was really nice spending time with the other three without ds3 taking over everything. By the time he came home we'd all really missed him and were more ready to deal with him and his quirky little ways. DLB, i know the feeling, i've had a baby at home for twelve years and my dd starts school in september, i'm both excited and upset. I even told hubby to go and have his vasectomy reversed cos i 'need' to have a baby at home!!!!! Needless to say the answer was 'no' witha couple of other choice words thrown in!!!!! Anyway having a roast today, need to do some washing, and going to sew the rest of the name labels into kids uniforms. See you all later SharronSometimes your the dog, and sometimes your the lampost..:p0

Hello Everyone
Taken me forever to get on here today. Got so much work to do.
Not feeling too well today, but got to work until 10.30pm:mad: Having fish and chips on the beach with a friend this evening
Heard back about the job. They said they think I'm so ready to do it, but they're keeping it internal for now, but they don't want to shut the door and want to keep in touch over the next few months as they feel I have a future there. So I don't know what that means
Almost fainted in the bathroom this morning. Don't know why. I've eaten, so it's not that
Saw a load of my ex's friends yesterday and stuck the knife in. There was a lot they didn't know. Apparently he and I are still really good friends. That's news to me!
Really not sure working all day is a good plan, but I have too. Roll on the end of next week so I can have three days offComping, Clicking & Saving for Change0 -
A quiet one here as well today, need to change beds, but will not get washing done, as its overcast and raining !
Been up since 7.00 just could not sleep, could drop easily now though, got a raging sore throat, hope its not the start of something.
We were going to bbq today, but may have to cook it in doors due to the rain, it never tastes the same though.
May go for a bike ride later if the ran holds off for a bit.
Hugs to all that need them.

it a dark gloomy , drizzaly day here. just the way i like it.
Are you MAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: Please don't tempt it anymore!
Well I've gone down with a cold or something. It was the 20 min non-stop coughing bout that announced it. Scary and hurt loads and I didn't even have a tickle. Up to then I thought the nose running was just the dust kicking up from moving everything for carboot (yup, my house is that clean -not:o ). Seems I was wrong
OH has big headache/teethache today so he'll be deep in cold tomorrow. Thus not booting even though it may actually stop raining today. Not unpacking car - good thing I don't need it this week. This car boot is jinxed. :rolleyes:
Remember how the council handed out waterbottles after the flooding? Several were sports type bottles with little clear protective caps on the top and PsychoKitty LOVES these. We've got about 20 and our current game is flicking them off the computer desk for him to chase. He's a good goalie!
The best is when he taps them down the stairs and onto the stone kitchen floor, and wooden living room floor (which we can see now the boot stuff is gone). He plays footie all the way along the floor (8ft), and then picks it up in his mouth, goes back to the beginning of the floor, and plays footie back along it again! It's soooo cute!
Anyway hope you all have a good day. We're mooching or houseworking. Curry or chilli tonight to smoke out cold bugs.
Happy Birthday Ticklemouse!0
