Thank heavens for that lil-me. Looks lovely, and i think i quite like the red kitchen too. :j Fate is going the way you desire which is a reward for all the nice things you do.

Charlie's been asleep for the past 2 hours, i have sent in school work for tomorrow, sorted through the stuff midwife gave me and binned the useless stuff and cut out the coupons, and filled out my prescription exemption form. I'll get that stamped now tomorrow when i take charlie to drs, and get that posted off so it will hopefully be here before my other one runs out in October.

I've also found out the easter dates for 2009 as i think i will take mat leave from Easter next year till the following. Must talk about that a bit more with DH tonight.

other than that, just pottering. I have delayed going to hang my washing up as i didn't want to wake DS too early and have him grumpy, but i also need the loo so might just bite the bullet and do it.

i should really stay off the comp till tonight, but i bet i don't. :rolleyes:

Michelle, x

I have done my living room, mopped the living room floor, cleaned the sofas and done some washing, done the dishes thats it, but it took ages!

Going to get DS2 up from his nap and get the kids fed then make a good start on the kitchen as all the other daily stuff for me has been done.

Yes I sold my thing on Amazon! weh-hey-woot-woot!

No ebay stuff uploaded though, went to bed last night at 8.45pm, and fell asleep within 5mins. Woke up at 8am, hubby was up with the kids so i eventually got up at 9.30 am and BOY do I feel GOOD!!!!!

Found an old Invoice for the old sofa, and realised we were now entitled to the money back fro the safeguard cover. Phoned them up and was asked if we had a certificate and had filled it out.. I was thinking 'no..' looked at it and saw they had mis-spelled my address, they have Laurel instead of Lorne. So we probably never did get it anyway. I have a fight starting now, hey-hey!

if they spelling is finked it's because I can just make out the red line of the spell check and I'm clicking the first thing it says as i seriously can not read the screen! lol! :rotfl:

torianut

just had a quick catch up - that house looks lovely lilme - hope it all goes smoothly from now on for you.

got to get LO to sleep now and tackle that cupboard under the sink!!! not cleared it out since we moved in almost 4 yrs ago!!

Hello, most people seem to be having a good day! Yay Lil me really pleased for you xx

So, whizzed through bit of ironing whilst DS played before we left, playgrouped, him fed, changed and in bed pooped out, bless so peace at last! Boiler man been and when he tired it the stupid thing worked! But he changed the parts on what he thought was wrong just incase. Just putting my feet up and getting done what I need to on pc whilst DS is down - honestly, I not facebooking or anything lol.

Just sat and worked out where to do my shopping, do Grans shopping on a Teusday at Asda but after checking I reckon its still loads cheaper at Aldi for tinned stuff, will stock up there and then use Asda as a top up/fresh bits. With moving I feel like our money is just vanishing and am worrying now that we'll manage okay. DH is due some money from his firm but they have ripped him off before (and this is one of the largest firms in the country!) so don't want to bank on anything and really, really don't want to go back to using credit cards.
