Didn't sleep well, so a bit rubbish this morning - didn't get up till gone 7.30, which is late for me.

Today's list:
Ordered French bean seeds from Amazon, the ones I want are a bit of a pain to get, so this saves me from having to go to a garden centre, with all the temptations that implies.... I also have a £20 gift card balance sent by the RAC, so they were effectively free Done
Ordered a gift voucher for GS1's upcoming birthday Done
Dog walks x 2 (DH did the first one) DH did both today
Minimal heating on till wood burner time (it is chilly though, sitting here in 2 jumpers, brrr ) Done
Post office / sales unit Forgot the bloomin post office :mad: Oh well, it will have to be tomorrow
Label up a few small items to take to sales unit Done
Walk all journeys Done
HM meals from stores Done
Make a pie for dinner later, I have taken pie filling already made out of freezer Not done, the soup we had at lunch was so filling we only needed a jacket potato and salad tonight. I will do this tomorrow
Wash outgrown (and largely unworn) little dog coat ready for ebay Not yet
Look out other coat which he also won't wear, that can go on as well Not yet
Any surveys, FPL etc. Already done a couple of surveys for onepoll Done
Start a shopping list - Mr W again this week, as I have another £6 off a £30 shop voucher, which expires on Sunday Done

Hmm OH has decided to clear out the conservatory (if that is the right word for the glass and brick box at the back of the house where all the wellies, brooms and dog food live). Not sure what brought that on :eek:

DH did the conservatory AND washed the kitchen floor. Must have a guilty conscience :rotfl:
Discovered I had not 1 but 2x £6 off vouchers for Waitrose, to be used in separate transactions, so I used one today to buy some meat to stock up the freezer. The other will do for the week's usual shopping. Both vouchers expire on Sunday.

Bought some plastic dinosaurs and sea creatures at the pound shop to amuse little GD and take her mind off digging up the garden and picking the flowers :rotfl:

Found a home from home dog boarding service locally - we are going to a wedding at the end of March and staying over for a few days as it is in a part of the UK we haven't visited before. I had booked pup into a local kennels but was not happy about leaving him in what seemed like an orphanage (though the people were very nice). The home carer service is licensed, inspected etc and part of a national franchise. It is a bit dearer than the kennels (though not much) and so long as I am happy after visiting the lady, I will be happy to pay the extra for peace of mind

OH found a suit in the CS (he has sadly outgrown his old one). He was overjoyed at this as he hates buying clothes. I am slightly sceptical, but it looks ok - not seen it on - and I will get it cleaned. Not worried at all about the fact that it came from the CS, as I buy nearly all my clothes second hand,either CS or ebay, but OH's dress sense is to say the least erratic :eek: Hopefully it will be ok, as if it looks really daft I will have a job to prevent him wearing it to the wedding :eek::eek: Anyway, cheaper than Moss Bros, where I was about to drag him! We will see!

Right, I think I am going to tidy up and get off to bed, as I am shattered.

Hi everyone :wave:
I hope that things are looking a bit brighter tomorrow for you Jonno - goodness knows I have my fair share of those days.
MTC - pleased you're sorted with the creditor - they make me :mad: but I promise once the dmp gets going things will quieten down considerably.
Dawn - I'm pleased that you've found something for pup. The vet gave me details for someone that would come over twice a day for the cats next time we're all away. I like the idea of them being looked after at home rather than in a cattery.

Not a bad day again, but the hall and study is really starting to bug me, maybe I'll leave OH a list for tomorrow whilst I'm at work!
