TIIIIIIIIIIIIIRED!!!!!!!!!!! Had a Twinkle in with us again.. she has a cough and is distressing herself in the night.. at least she does sleep in with us.. I however do not.. but I'd rather she slept and was not screaming in her cot because I refused her a cuddle.. they grow up so fast I can't see her wanting this in 5 years time so I'm making the most of her sneezing in my face and wiping her nose on me for now.
I can't even think what needs to be done today..
Laundry
Drying
Folding and putting away
[STRIKE]DW[/STRIKE]
Table scrubbed
more glossing in bathroom.. I sanded some rough areas so it looks very 'distressed'
[STRIKE]take dress for alterations.[/STRIKE]. Joys of being short.. NOTHING fits!
Bills to pay.. There are 3 I need to pay but at least 2 can be put off if I need the money elsewhere.
[STRIKE]Check Ebeast listings[/STRIKE].. I have a NPB.. why bid at all if you have no intention of paying... grrrLB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Lil_me ... not sure if you're lurking, I just saw of your loss.. but I wanted to pass on my condolences for your furry loss. I'm sure Leia left a big furry hole in your life. Have happy times over Rainbow Bridge fur baby xx... I hope everyone is ok xxx
Oooh... party day in here... 9 years today since CF finally left... 7 weeks after I told him to go... best day of my life.. The karma bus is heading right in his direction.. he is as miserable as sin by all accounts... he has absolutely no respect from the 2 girls he is interested in (or rather wants to use as a weapon to hurt me) they swear at him and basically do as they please.. I shouldn't be but I am really glad and super-smug.. he deserves every second of misery he gets and some! Would you believe he confiscated DD4's bras! she is 15.. they arent allowed a bath because his bath is too fancy apparently. One stole food from the school canteen because she was hungry!! But this is ok by all acoounts.. totally acceptable. They have no lightbulbs in their rooms, aren't allowed music/mp3 players or phones.. he's a freaking lunatic...LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
I have a monster list to work my way through today and too few hours to deal with everything on it. I'm going on a march tomorrow, the first protest march of my life, so no time to catch up then and I'll be cream-crackered on Sunday. Next week's filling up rather fast, too.Better is good enough.0

Hi all
Just checking in. Feeling tired, stressed and generally bleugh. Went to bed at 9.30pm last night, straight to sleep until 5.45am but today has still been a struggle.
So: gym, paid stuff no. 1, bank, supermarket, then home to tidy, put shopping away etc. I now need to start work on job no. 2 and I really dont want to. Sigh.
Best crack on.0 -

Quick fly by. Rubbish night's sleep last night, but at least I wasn't awake until 4am, which was an improvement of previous nights. Busy day at work, now on the settee with DD mindlessly stuffing popcorn into my mouth whilst watching some boxset that I don't understand. With French subtitles...why?! Apparently because we can.0
