    Right so far
    1) dishes done
    2)wm on
    3) td on
    4) clothes folded and put away

    DS1 throw up in a cup which i found yuck he done it when i was sleeping. No one thought to tell me.

    Now gonna sort the living room.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    No - thank YOU PenPen. You helped me when I was floundering around on me own trying to keep the place reasonable while Mrs T was working all the hours under the sun (and moon!) - remember the half term challenge? :rotfl: :rotfl:

    That and your general helpfulness, knowledge and friendliness make you a very special person

    Thanks. I owe you a lot

    TNG

    Remember it :eek: :eek: :eek: I think I can honestly say that [STRIKE]I was severely traumatised by it[/STRIKE] my life will never be the same :kisses3:

    Festive greetings to you and all the NGs ;):p :xmassign: :xmastree:

    Ahhhh! Light bulb moment...it's 'eye' toy not 'i' toy! Right, will phone my local woolies in the morning. If they have one i'll get it as an extra shared gift as between my two as it's on offer. If they don't have it in stock then i'll wait and get it for DSs birthday in January. What am I talking about....i'll get it for his birthday. Ok, talked myself out of that one.

    Tomorrow I need to nip to tesco to get cheese for my parents hamper and then we're going to the piccies at lunch time - I went to woolies today to get pick and mix for them. Then I just need to pop to my mum and dad's to pick up some food for some event that's happening on Tuesday....can't remember what it is, probably just some birthday or something.

    We've moved the guinea pigs into my daughter's bedroom for the holidays so she thinks christmas has come early. I've made her promise not to take them to bed with her!! They're in danger of being cuddled to pieces!

    Happy travelling to all those going away tonight or tomorrow.
    Welcome back to oldtimers.
    Welcome to anyone new.
    Hugs to everyone xx

    :confused:What on earth does she want to come at that time for? Must be one of those who can function way too early.

    I'm not sure if she s working tomorrow, possibly a late shift so will need to get loads done as her mum has not been well and she has been running round for her as well as trying to keep on top of her own stuff. Must admit when she asked the earliest she could turn up you name the time I expected her to reply with 9am at the earliest! Ah well if we are up earlier then we can get on and get our other jobs done. So with that I had better go to bed.

    Oh and michelle you are way to kind, nobody does less flying than me :p right off to put some cream in my poorly ears and then find my book.

    Night night all, sleep tight. xx

    What's the chance of a Wilko's order tracking within 15 minutes, if it does and the other teams haven't spent any extra, we might just win :rotfl:

    Edited, midnight, still hasn't tracked, now I am annoyed, time for snotty email making sure it's added!!!

    Oh stuff it, if we do win big call it Happy Christmas from me, I couldn't just let it go so squeezed the extra I could out and now have 6 deliveries booked, darn them for putting a max of 150 items an order as costing me more in postage. Oh no, my DP is not going to like me now, I best delete this confirmation before he finds it..................
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    lil_me you will have enough stuff to set up your own branch of Wilkinson's!! i wish i could've helped out but moving time is not the time to start stocking up, i am running things down!

    i have packed another 3 boxes tonight, was worth staying behind just for that. hoping i'll find my phone in amongst my stuff in the morning. just really hope i didn't fling it with the rubbish i was putting out. did have a dig around in the bin but it was dark, bins collected very early tomorrow, i will try and get up and have a look in the light!
    right, didn't manage a bath but am going to go to bed with my book and a hot choc with baileys in. yum, that should send me off to sleep nicely.

    Rach is it switched on? You could phone it to see if it is in there. Just I know round here the binmen because of the days off have been coming several hours early, even if mine wasn't emptied, grrr, they were round about 6.30am, they'll all want to finish early tomorrow aswell.

    As for Wilkos, calm email to Quidco has asked them to let me know if transactions made within the time limit will count even if they haven't tracked yet, I can provide them with the receipt, if they say no they can cancel the lot, have only done it to help the team win....I doubt Wilkinsons will want it all back :D so hopefully will get somewhere with it.

    sadly lil_me it's on silent! grrrr. it's not worth losing sleep over, i'll be mad if it is lost as it's almost new (OH's dad's upgrade which he didn't want). OH is swearing he'll never buy me an ipod as i will lose it / break it within weeks...have lost 2 scarves this winter already!

    anyway, want to set alarm for 8 so better go to bed with that hot choc. flat still needs more work but enough is enough and technically now, as it's after midnight...

    tomorrow is Christmas!!! :snow_laug:santa2::xmastree::xmassign:
