    :eek: Flippin heck never a dull moment in the Pigpen house is there, blimey!

    Just ran outside with first load to get line dried, still got my pink PJ bottoms on :rolleyes: I'm half dressed tshirt and bra is on, what more do I need :rotfl: I like these PJs they are comfy, I don't wear them for bed, just when I get up and can't be bothered to look for clothes..need to text DPs brother to remind him he's helping DP with shed roof felt etc today, think he must have asked him when he was drunk last night, DP wants it waterproof asap so we can get 'my crap' out of 'his garage' like gardening tools, lawn mower etc:rolleyes: must remember to send padlock with him aswell.

    Right, what shall I pack next, :confused: hmmm, think I will do my make up etc from bathroom, pack the lot and just not wear any this week. See what other smellies etc I can pack then DP can take the cabinet and shelving thing down. Oh I need to measure a shelving rack see if one will fit in the cupboard on the landing, seeing as when we went to put shelves up in there the wall basically fell to bits. Nothing like patching up a wall with a piece of plywood then cover it with a skin of plaster to confuse people!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Lil_me.. I spent most of yesterday in the top I'd gone out in the night before, and slept in.. and my red lacy shorts I'd put on the night before.. the 3 hours I was up I put a skirt on over the top.. voila.. outfit complete!!! lol I wouldn't know what to do with myself if we didn't have the daily catastrophe!!

    Right.. hanging out washing to tempt the rain .. it's really dark and gloomy out there!!

    Afternoon all. It was morning when I started reading this but then I went and served up dinner and ate it!

    Two loads of washing on the line. Not drying fast but seems better than yesterday - I swear that all came in just as wet as it went out and I had to hang everything up indoors. Might as well have done that in the first place....

    I got a couple more Christmas bits yesterday, one proper present and another little thing for one of my "kid's" boxes. They're all grown up but they are still my kids :)

    DH watching motorcycling on television. Oh joy. At least he doesn't watch rugby or football, got to be grateful for small mercies.

    Continuing good wishes for baby Matthew and for anyone else who would like some.

    Quiet day here today, well it is for OH and DD :rotfl: Beds are stripped, OH & I are both bathed, dishes washed, kitchen S&S'ed, washing on, looks like I might be taking a trip to the laundrette MAYBE later. Had the fire on most of the morning trying to finish the drying off of the laundry from yesterday. Food inventory done, and now it's time to try and work out how I can get 2 weeks worth of meals out of what we have :eek: Time to get creative!

    Still to do today:
    • Make beds up
    • Packed lunches for tomorrow
    • Ironing
    • Evening meal - toad in the hole, new potatoes & veg (maybe even some pudding this week ;) )
    • Uniforms out
    • Menu plan
    • Declutter of DD's room - I need to get it done today so I can see whats what for Christmas gifts! :eek:
    Right, first things first though, cup of tea & rejig of inventory/menu plan ;) :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!

    Still too lazy to fly - arghhh. Have cleared a lot of the paperwork on my desk though so that's good.

    Oh and I bought a mortage pig yesterday.

    Most of my washing has dried, just a few bits left, so it's definitely better than yesterday. We've even had a little bit of sun - not too much, don't want spoiling do we? :D
