    Oh if OH is not at work it takes all day to get done what I usually do in a couple of hours!

    Meal plan done for the week to make sure I don't need anything else because I still have no log in for the bank :mad: I hope it arrives tomorrow I need to pay the rest of the council tax by the 28th :o

    Plan is
    Tonight: Lasagne, garlic bread and salad
    Tomorrow: Curry, rice and naan
    Weds: Pulled pork and rice for the boys, Pasta salad for the girls.
    Thurs: Chill and rice? Maybe Jacket potato who knows.
    Fri: Is shopping day but have enough mince to make burger or meatballs.

    Lunches for OH we have enough choice along with his breakfasts.

    Kids have lunch at school, youngest usually has 'something' on toast egg/beans or sandwiches.

    Snacks we have plenty baked but I can do another lot of baking if needed.

    Once lasagne is out the slow cooker tonight I will pop the very last bits of chicken in along with the stock and all the past its best veg and make into soup.

    Think that's about it really. Could make sausage rolls for DS I guess but we'll see. DD still has pies made in the freezer.

    I have to be, as soon as I let slip it gets on top of me so quick then I feel like I can't get back on top of things.

    I like to stay in my routine and things to be done my way :o

    I'm quite paranoid about the house and people thinking I can't cope if they call round and it isn't right. Not that many people do call round :rotfl: but I'd put money on me letting it slip and someone would :o

    Well things have come to a stop. I'm stuck in a&e for myself not youngest, makes a change. I did manage to put the curry in the sc before leaving and get the kids too school. No doubt it won't be a NSD though.

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.
