:j Next mission complete, I've found a milkman in the area. I'm sick of either running out of milk or ending up spending too much at the local shop when I just need milk. I just can't get used to it after having it delivered for so long. They're ringing me back to let me know when they can start delivering. Only took phoning 6 places to find them. Think I best go get DP up, he's usually up before now.

Just grabbing a quick sandwich. I've sorted out a box of RM stuff so I can get rid of it all! Then I've started on DS's bedroom....I can't believe how much rubbish he's got in there considering it's only a box room! There were also 3 mouldy apple cores under his bed! He knows he's not supposed to eat upstairs for that very reason.:mad:

Will hoover under his bed then 1 of his toy boxes is going under there.

I've sort of lost my momentum a bit - there's too much stuff in too small a room and nowhere to move.

Anyway, I suppose I'd better do some more...

Kind of feel i've lost all momentum, need a kick to get me going or i'll sit here all day!!
Have done my meal plan though so after lunch need to go to the shops, and try and find a decent butcher so i can buy a ham hough to make soup. All the butchers i've come across so far look quite grotty

shell2001

Am sat looking at slow cooker recipies. Thing is I think i need to buy a new one. The one I have was a xmas pressies about 13 years ago and only has on/off settings. Most recipes seem to call for various heat settings.

Sod it, I am off to get some stuff to make a stew for me and some cake or something, and DH prescription I guess.

Lol, I bet I was there - a non-screaming 23 year old, cross because of all the middle aged women screaming at MY David, showing themselves up because it was obvious that I was the woman of his dreams!

I want to have a nap and have a dream of a hot man. But no doubt I will dream of something stupid and horrific. Like my Tumble Dryer melting... 5 bad dreams about the TD so far! So wasteful of good hot men dreaming time! :mad:


DS2 is going for a nap now!

Oh dear, if DS2 is napping, I am unable to do my room... shucks... may as well go for a wee half hour then? Who cares if the house is minging?

rach
