good morning ..I am so with you on this curlgirl ..now that I have read the KonMari book this is the way forward for me too:T:T:Tclearing my Laundry room out and having to chuck away conditioner and washing pods bought cheap I ask myself why oh why ..:eek::eek:

things like washing pods and conditioner can go into the food bank collections.

For decades I did two or three washing loads everyday, even Christmas day, it was relentless. It is still a novelty to me, even now we have had empty nest for a couple of years, how little washing needs doing

Hello Nanny
Why chuck them away:eek: you will have to re buy? i dont get that:o[/QUOTE]
Had them too long bubbs ..and were unusable:eek::eek:gone solid and not able to use ..being on my own I would far rather buy as I need ..only since i have read the book has my opinion changed .....don't get me wrong I love a bargain as well as the next man ..but not going to buy just because it is cheap ..;)

I'm pimping up my Christmas cards I bought yesterday in Waites.

They are really good quality 88p for 10 and 3 for 2:T

I've got loads of little craft jewels that I'm going to glue in the corner of the Three Wise Men cards and I'm going to glitter up the holly and wreath ones:)

Sad I know:rotfl::rotfl:

Soup is on the cards again. I have fresh basil so it has to be minestrone:T and a lemon cake too....best get my skates on:)

Good morning Elite.
Hoping everyone is warm, happy and well. Hugs to those not so. Special extra hugs to gocat and MKS.
Another very frosty start here again but I'm at work until 8pm so no matter.
I'm guessing there are a lot of celebs behind locked doors with a doctor on call waiting for the chimes of New Year!

How are you diddling AJ ?

Hello E :santa2: I'm diddling not too bad but doc not a happy bunny. I'm been naughty and putting pressure on my back so I'm now a week behind it seems . Own fault for joining in the shenanigans on Christmas Day, I had great fun though with the family here :rotfl:

It's lovely though when they leave and it's quiet. DH had his sister gets for a day and because she's blind we all have to run around after her because the skills she's been taught she will not use :eek: she's 53 for heavens sake and I refuse to do some things fir her.

Hope you had a brilliant time with your family around you and the grandchildren. That's what it's all about isn't it . You didn't get drunk did you, and I missed it ? :rotfl:

altojack

I'm going back into bed on my back and watch tv. Bl00dy doc and DH are in cahoots I tell ya:eek: :eek: Not allowed out again until tea time unless it's a pee break or coffee break

I'm hoping that you lot all had a brilliant Christmas, got what you wanted and overdid the eating and drinking . I over ate but was cautious with the alcohol due to my meds :cool:

I'm Pages behind but will catch up at some point, I'm behind with a few Facebook messages too but I'll get round to that soon

Have a good day folks, see you later xx

It's that build up to the New Year ....fresh starts and challenges.
I've just done the How tight are you quiz on the right.

I'm 48% tight:o

But Frugal and thrifty:o:rotfl:

Morning peeps.

I did the quiz yesterday, 55% tight, shocked that I'm tighter than TM

Envious that everyone has loads of energy, I feel completely shattered, must have slowed down too much, better get a wiggle on......
