  • Evening everyone. I have just got in from helping out at a school disco. I was on apple bobbing duties! One little girl lost a tooth in there. poor girl, but a bit gross when you think about all the mouths trying to bite the apples.
    I quite enjoyed it, i don't usually volunteer my services for these things but my friend sort of didn't give me a choice as she was organizing it!
    Nothing to declare ;)

    Morning :wave:

    nothing from lil_me yet?

    Was up at 7.30 this morning (darn body clock) and didn't get to sleep till 2am but I feel surprisingly spritely :j <----see! :D House is looking fantastic, I've finally managed to get everything sorted/flung in each room so now everything is in it's place and I have a place for everything. My new bedroom suite is fab, first time I've ever had one and there's tons of storage, the wardrobe looks a bit pitiful though as there's only 1 pair of trousers hanging up in it lmao, I've never been a big clothes buyer :D AND I got a nice surprise, there's two drawers in the bed - yay! hadn't realised they were there.

    Just need to sort the spare room out now but most of the boxes are DD1's so can't sort through them till she's back up for a weekend, and the rest is just a case of loading the car and taking to the dump. I feel organised, in control and tidy for the first time EVER!! :T Just need to keep on top of it now :rolleyes:

    Haven't decided what to do today yet so no list, but I will most definately be pottering, oh and I'll be doing the bathroom cause I ran out of time to do it yesterday cause I had to go out at 3pm. Went for a review at the DSS and she informed me that as of next year if your youngest child is 12yrs old they'll lob you off income support and you'll have to claim job seekers, lots of other changes too but I wont bore you all with them, doesn't affect me as I'm looking for work and hope to be in employment way before then so...

    Anyway, gonna have a brew then have a look about to see what I can do. Oh and I've got a Halloween party to go too this avo, SIL and her little one are hosting MIL is providing the grub (yummy) so no cooking for me tonight woot! woot!

    laters :hello:
