    Way to go Em you are nearly done! - How many cups of tea h ave you had - I'm on number 3 and my 3rd choc chip cookie.

    Need to make Ortho appointment for DS1 who hurled his brace at the wall and broke it.
    Do I make him tell them the truth or allow him to say he dropped it on the tiled floor??

    I've just made my second cuppa lol. Will you be charged for the brace if it was broke on purpose? if so then say it was an accident lol

    Gonna do pigsback whilst I'm sat at the pc, littleys watching the Disney channel snuggled up in a blanket, it's sooooo cosy in there.

    Oooooh it's getting light outside......

    Thanks for thoughts on the brace - have a good day.

    I'm in ....just off to kick DD's bottom into gear so she can watch Milkshake while I wash up. Laters :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!
  • well good morning-wow seems to be a few newcomers today :wave:

    Well have to say haven't done anything today. clothes are still in the TD from yesterday but I have put a load in the WM.

    Last night I put 4 kitchen units together-no not for the kitchen but for our summerhouse :) Plan on putting all the DIY stuff etc away. Getting a electric fire for the summerhouse today as well so I won't be freezing my t*ts off when I go in there next.

    OK should really get about doing this list-once I write it down it tends to get me going but feeling tired today- never a good thing on a Monday!!
