    can't sleep. been lying up there for 2 hours now :mad: and am so bored. So decided to get up, having a banana and a cup of horlicks to see if that helps. Probably noone around, except maybe Denise still ? And I know Rach is a night owl.

    Well decided I am going to register with Quidco and see how much I can make without spending any money, if I am going to be awake I might as well do something productive LOL

    If I don't return for a while please someone look after things. I've had even more hassle from neighbour from hell, getting local idiots to threaten to do stuff to my home or car, I think we're going to have to move tomorrow. Sat here shaking as I am angry and upset at the same time. I'll be in touch as soon as I can.

    Look after yourselves
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Quick mid-afternoon update:

    Thursday Study/Pc Area
    Level One

    Clean floors in these rooms (even if it is around the clutter)
    Level Two
    Clear any clutter from desk
    Dust PC and desk
    Wipe keyboard and mouse (these usually have more germs on than your toilet so important)
    Level Three
    Clear clutter from floor

    Extra mission:
    Pick whichever you want to attempt
    • Make any important calls you have been putting off
    Laundry - in and folded
    Go shopping with DSno. 3 who heads back to Uni of Friday. He is in need of at least some new socks - ended up getting jeans, boxers and a t shirt as well!
    Get some new College socks for DS 3 & 4 - priced them - $10 a pair!!!
    Dust & vacuum living areas - DS2 was meant to do that before he took off with his mates but of course he didn't.
    Some more time to be spent on business - that is becoming a full time job in itself! - Done an hour or so this a.m.
    Register as an employer with Tax Dept - done

    Wheelie bin empty tomorrow a.m. so will go through every room with a bin bag!!! Look out kids - mums coming :eek:


    DS2 is heading back to Uni tomorrow. Getting a ride with a friends parents. They are picking him up a 7am!!
    i can see a busy evening ahead :rolleyes:

    lil_me that is terrible, I hope things get sorted so that you do not have to move, but if it has to happen I hope it's done quickly for all your sakes.

    Who can take over from lil_me any volunteers?

  • lil-me - sending lots of angels and hugs your way this morning.

    Can't believe I have time to post on a school day - must be the flylady! Now all I need to be able to do is get 3 children to be nice to each other! (Any ideas?????)

    Congrats Michelle :j:j:D

    Lil-me - hope things get sorted out soon! :eek:

    Me I'm off to do dailies upstairs and then put some washing out and off for my daily walk and no phones again - oh and good news for me, got weighed this morning and I've lost a stone since July :j:j:j I even noticed a difference when I put my pants on this morning as they were a little loose even though they were freshly washed and unworn and not so much of a hangover the top :D Must be the new bras and all the walking, which I'm now determined to keep up! :D Might start pulling my tummy in as I walk, once I start wearing a fleece or something over my top - I'd look a bit daft walking past the workmen that are currently on my route going fat/thin/fat/thin as I held my tummy in :o Which also reminds me .. I might have to dig out my "too small" jeans and see how they fit now as they were a small 20 :D

    Right, off to move my backside. Laters :wave:

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!
