    Hi guys,
    I've hardly done a thing today, though I did have coffee with a fat pregnant friend and watched her 2 yr old son climb absolutely everything....he is gorgeous.
    I've emptied the TD, need to fold and put clothes away.
    Still got to wash up last nights saucepans!!
    And list stuff on ebay!!

    OK, just having sausage sandwiches for tea tonight, DH is away for another night, so......I will get my ebay stuff listed tonight and give the kitchen a S&S after tea..
    Will do bathroom and kinders room's tomorrow.

    :j looks like I'll be an Aunty today, fingers crossed, friend eventually taken in to hospital & they've listened to the fact she's been in labour for days, poor girl is exhausted.

    Been busy but will update list later and catch up with everyone, need to take the boys swimming in a mo.

    I've also saved us over £300 today, changing insurances we got refunds on policies then few other things, so very happy :D
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200

    Right, I'm ready to go again, had an hour's nap on the sofa kidding myself I was watching Oceans Eleven (so many handsome men I didn't know where to look first). Lucy is out of the airing cupboard so that's where I'm headed which may lead onto bathroom cleaning. All that leaves is windows inside and out tomorrow then I've done everything I possibly can to put off wallpapering in the kitchen. No excuses now.
    Lil_me, hope your friend delivers safely, she must be tired out. Hugs to other folks feeling poorly this evening and well done to those of you who've achieved so much. Pigpen, an early night to do some knitting? Is someone else logged on to your PC?:rotfl:

    Catch you all in a while.

    i know i should be flying or something but i am pooped and my head is full! i am going to make a cuppa and take it in the bath!!! then i will come back and do the two job apps. one os easy as just a CV to an agency, the other is a form and i think is probably above me but i think its worth going for anyway. not sure if they accept email apps and it is due in lunchtime tomorrow so i will ahve to beg the use of a fax fomr my friend who runs the post office!!!
