PurpleFairy26

Morning all :hello:

Lovely day here, the sunshine is so good for the mood 1 load already pegged out, another will go in a minute. Can you tell I'm WFH

My list:

do some gardening, inspired by you lot - have some thing to plant and some tidying to do. Will finish work early and get out there with the smalls. They can 'help'
Look in to companion plants - they sound like something I might need to investigate
Roast for tea that we didn't have yesterday as we were back too late
Make sure I have something for lunch tomorrow
More free exercise tonight - i have discovered yoga on YT and I'm loving it
Post fleabay parcel as I want the funds and I won't transfer it from paypal until its posted
Check banking, surveys and FPL, £co money in so pay that to CC :T
Lots of work so I feel I'm not behind
Relax tonight and plan some baking to do this week using things I already have

Right, best get on. Purps

Morning folks

HK - I hope that you catch puss soon. I'm glad she's been spotted

After feeling ok with my tummy all yesterday, it was very sore after dinner (my own fault for eating something spicy!). It then kicked off again after breakfast. We are now in full stomachy disaster mode. Will need to be plain rice and potatoes and water this week I think

Today's mission:

• B/L/D from stores. Will freeze all extra food that I can't eat
• Washing on line
• Charge phone in work - done
• Gym at lunchtime - done
• Crochet
• Check over the garden
• Early night

Have a good one all

Morning all,

HK I've got everything crossed for you, DD and DCat, I've been logging in and out relentlessly hoping for a good news update. Hope you have her home safe and sound before the day is out.

I notice a lot of you are selling via fleabay - have any of you tried the book of faces market place? A few months ago I listed a lot of stuff on there after clearing out the loft and it went really quickly (plus no commission - always a bonus) - just need to mark collection only or local delivery only - whatever your preference.

DH put up the whirly gig (rotary drier for those not fluent in scots tongue lol) yesterday as well as putting out the table and chairs (optimistically in preparation of summer) so got my first washing pegged out! :j Unfortunately it's cold and overcast today so back to the TD for the rest of the washing :undecided

Todays DFW efforts include:

- Using up 2 bags of frozen HM bolognaise to mix through with some cooked pasta, top with grated cheese and bake in the oven - hopefully DH won't moan that he's sick of spag bol lol.
- [STRIKE]To do list made in note pad with items transferred into diary with time in minutes to complete task marked next to it (e.g. load and start washing machine (5) then it doesn't feel so daunting if I know it's only going to take 5 minutes).[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]Book dentist check up for me[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]book car in for MOT[/STRIKE]
-[STRIKE] strip bed and freshen matress/duvet/pillows with HM fabreeze (1tbsp lenor unstoppables or 1 capful of fabric softner diluted in a 750ml spray bottle with water)
- wash bedding and remake bed[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]get hi-fi down from the loft[/STRIKE]
- set up hi-fi
- [STRIKE]clean bathrooms (apart from in the toilet where I use easy bleach (same makers of parazone, same bottle, same ingredients just 39p instead of £1.50) and MrT value toilet cleaner -I use an old towel and window cleaner to clean everything - has alcohol denat in it so disinfects and leaves everything super-shiney)[/STRIKE]
- still can't change mobille's over to S123 account until tomorrow :mad:
- [STRIKE]iron DH shirts for work and my uniforms[/STRIKE]
- Dye hair (home dye job)
- Continue on ice crusade :rotfl:
- [STRIKE]2l bottle of diluting juice made up for me to drink today.[/STRIKE]

Updated my signature :j

Other than that, just waiting on 2 of the new accounts arriving so I can set up my new jam jarring, hopefully make an appearance in todays post!

Hope you're all well!

Oooh you've got some wonderful tips here Mrs LWW
Can you post a link to that selling page as I can't seem to find it. I've got had much success with Ebay lately and it seems to be slowing down so any alternatives is great, thank you!

Loving the idea for freshening up the mattress using Leonor unstoppable, I never thought of that. Love the smell of those as well. Thank you so much! :T

MrsLWW

Glad I could help Twins, when you're on the app on your phone if you swipe right it should come up, there's also a wee icon at the top that looks like a tent/marquee, clicking that and it should take you in. Failing that, I think this is the link: https://www.facebook.com/Marketplace-231693550250356/

Afternoon everyone :hello:
This weather had better hold as I'm still at work at the moment. We break up for Easter at the end of this week (and I can't wait, I am so tired). It's glorious out there and I'm stuck in a stuffy classroom feeling a bit bleugh after such a brilliant weekend. Never mind.
HK - I have everything crossed that the next time I log on here there will be great news about the cat. They do keep us on our toes a bit don't they?
So this morning is just more of the usual.
Checked banking and PAD
Washing up
Washing
Packed lunches using up leftovers
Full day of teaching
Set of books to mark
Hoover when I get home
Take ds to swimming lesson
Try not to stress.

Made a £2 sale on FB so treated us to 50p off strawberries and extra thick cream when I was in Sainsbos, prescription charges went up this month apparently so I have overspent by quite a bit but health care is obviously essential.

I have antibiotic cream to put up my nose four times a day to try to stem my nosebleeds in case they are because I have an infection. There is nothing whatsoever wrong with my throat so my back of/roof of mouth pain is most likely from the dental injections (which means I wasted a fiver on cough medicine :mad: ) and he's happy for me to keep going with the happy pills. I mentioned I'm suffering some joint stiffness after I've been sitting for a long while so he wants to book me in for blood tests including a vitamin D test. I only asked because I wanted to know if yoga might help if it was an age thing

The lovely spiraea I was given for Christmas is in a nice new pot and not before time and all the others have an inch or so of new compost on the top. I caught one of the cats peeing in one of my pots which might explain a lot :cool:

Just waiting now on two people to pick up different things and then I can Hoover the sitting room. I'm not sure if tomorrow's project will be the kitchen or the bedroom, they're both fairly chaotic!

Ha ha, Mrs LWW - Whirly gig is by far the best name for it! OH and I have been together almost 10 years and it still amazes me that I can say scottish words he's never heard of before. Latest one was me 'losing my dinger' :rotfl:

Oooh, DNMS - 'SFG' is like a whole new world!! I will check that out.

We've got fake away for tonight - all microwavable while Operation Install New Kitchen takes place!

I haven't managed the gardening as it was nearly 6 by the time I'd finished work :eek: will be a weekend job I think.

I've also:
Split fleabay and survey money between cc and savings pot
Put 4 more mysainsbobs coupons on my account after 4 were credited today
3 loads of washing dried, all but 1 pair jeans which are half dry. Includes all hat/scarfs and gloves of DDs from winter now packed away in a brag for next winter. Will do mine and DH this week along with all our coats.
Used left over pasta in fridge for lunch
DH had some beans and cheese from fridge on toast

Going to relax tonight as it's been a long day it seems.

- Checked banking, sent some over to savings. I have spent more than I realised on Friday, but set up quite well for the month, in terms of food shop, car filled up and bought DD a bag of after school clothes from Primarni
- Took lunch to work
- Rest of the week eating at home, I am on hols from Friday so need to plan a few things for the weekend with DD, I think the Cinema one day and we are seeing some friends on the other days.
- On the list is sorting out some old clothes for Charity
- Cleaning the oven (oh joy)
