That's a normal day for me, mrs-mp, but nothing like your worload with the paid stuff, your own home and your m-i-l's needs to take care of.

Off to town now. It will probably be raining by the time I get back, but (unless we have another blizzard) I shall go out in the garden anyway when I get back.

Wacky Wednesday ~ Study or other reception room & bathrooms
defragment the pc
Declutter and dust the pc desk
Wipe away cup rings and sticky things
Wipe the keyboard, mouse, cables and sockets and suchlike.

Thank you for the warm welcome back :blushing:
Sorry to hear about poorlies, hugs to CY. Oh Piggers, you couldn't write it!
I had a new laptop to replace my old desktop pc and I'm too scared to defrag it without DH :eek:, it is double-glazed 10, so will leave my tiny desk/cupboard until he is home.
Going to nip to estate agents because they have emailed the brochure proofs so thought I might go and get the contracts to save time.

Morning. Lots done yesterday, including plumber found and booked and ironing pile gone!

FurryBeastOz

Morning all.

Bread in breadmaker - DH doesn't start until 1300 today so I have time. I thought I was going to have to raid the freezer back up. Bad planning!

I was due to do a 'try out' at the expensive gym down the road, but CBA. So rescheduled that for Saturday when I won't be chasing my tail. Need to fit in 5miles though. But walk Furry first.

Then I have the Kirk, Cuppa Time at 1400 (Seniors club) Malt Loaf, and Orange almond cake baked for that. Straight from that to a meeting so I'll need to walk Furry again before that as I won't be back until 2100.

I hate Thursdays - the meeting is only 1800 to 1900 but because of bus times I have to get the 1557 bus to get there and the 2015 back. Roll on 16th May. Driving License day (fingers crossed) then I won't have to leave until 1715 to get there and I'll be home by 1930:T

I've worked out that I will have on average, an extra 3 hrs A DAY. Lots of time for more flying:rotfl:

Have a great day everybody.

Valli

Ooh not long now then, FBO - hope you get it back!

Recycling gone inc huge bag of shredding *fling*

Out on errand shortly and was at work at a meeting last night. Boo to academisation!

But despite the SNOW I am pegging out...

Morning all.

Hugs, sticks, spoons & vibes to all as nothing is sticking today

Still not feeling quite right, but today is paid stuff so I have no choice but to be up and moving. Normally I'd go out and try to visit all the houses in one go, but today I'm going to do a road at a time. Just means going out 3 times instead of once to cover all the houses. Which means 6 trips this morning, but this evening DD will be with me so I will be able to just go it in one. However I am not looking forward to the heavy rain that is forecast for us for this afternoon & this evening

DD is out at philosophy class until in theory 4.45pm however last week they didn't finish until 5.30 and that was without DD's nemesis being there. In their regular classes its apparently like a cross between parliament and a tennis match between them when there's a topic up for discussion, I'm dreading what its going to be like tonight :rotfl: So I'm expecting a similar if not later finish today and right through until the end of June! At least out of the 9 weeks left of this class I'm only working for 4 of them including tonight.

I'm waiting on 3on to sort their website out. I got my estimated bill yesterday after them telling me that someone was coming to read the meter and its out by 100 units and over £120 debit which is the highest I've ever had :mad: Considering between yesterday and today I've only used 6 units electric and 2 gas I am not a happy person right now. This afternoon I'll have to set aside an hour or so to update household finances and see if I can afford to up the payment a little bit. I don't want to have too much credit on the account, but at the same time I want to control the amount I'm paying out to them before they decide to up it again to a level I can't afford to pay.

This week:
Laundry
Phone VIP line
Book Mr A delivery
Take birthday gifts to niece
Update finances
Toots list jobs x2 - 1 down.

Time to feed the dog, put a wash load in the machine (but not on until I get back from the first round of book collecting), and think about tea. Its going to be a long day but I might just flutter a bit to break things up a little so I'm not sitting still for hours on end at the desk and the house certainly could do with it! :wave:
