    Did everything off my list apart from sorting V5s out, well and todays washing up which has just piled up so will do that in a mo. Did some more cleaning of those manky oven racks too, my god they are taking some work. Got new pillows and mugs today, I was looking at the mugs in Homebase but only had 4 when I asked about more a lady said they had them for £1 each (instead of £2.99) in Instore so went there :D

    Yet again O2 stated they would ring back today, guess what, for the 26th time they haven't. DP has called EVERY day trying to sort the problem out.

    Anyway, bad bits aside my best mate had a little boy at about 6pm :D Mam and baby doing great and I am going to see them tomorrow, I so wanted to go tonight but I know she'll need her rest as she's been through it a bit so gritting my teeth and waiting. Knew it was going to be a boy, pleased too as I bought her blue stuff :rotfl: I've only every guessed the sex wrong once, that was twins one of each and I said 2 girls.. Even my DS2 picked a toy for the baby when she was just a few months and would not change his mind on a little blue dog!

    DS2s bed they rang with another stupid from 7am delivery time on Monday so I said to get the driver to ring me when they are an hour away and I'll get there. If they don't deliver tomorrow will be after we move in, what a pain!

    List for tomorrow so far, will add more as I think of them

    Morning stuff
    Dailies
    Phone school and speak to caretaker & sort out number change
    Go and see friend and my new honourary nephew :D (need to find out visit times)
    Check through finances
    20 minutes paperwork sorting
    Get DP to phone O2 again
    Measure fence and go to buy fencing wire
    More packing before we go, aim for 4 boxes
    Start taking trampoline down
    Take some more stuff from garden over
    Unpack whatever we take over
    Send the V5s off, need to find them aswell
    More plastering
    Packing on evening as in with boys and DP at work
    Night time stuff
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200
    Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Photogenic I've been Money Tipped!
    Uh oh :o Diet is not looking good - that tiramasu I made before OH got out the fridge to have some and I had to lick the carboard mould clean :o:p:rotfl: Thats all I'm going to have (except the necessary fingerlicking if I happen to get some on them while dishing some out ;) ) I find it way too sickly. :rolleyes:

    I think I'll have to come off the computer soon as I want to watch Diary of a call girl while I do some ironing & I still have to make tomorrows lunches, and I guess I should also wash up :o

    But facebook is calling to me.....can you hear it too? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!
