DW loaded.. washing hung out.. yes at 11:30pm!! .. TD on.. both WM's on.. lunches ready.. table cleared.. work surfaces cleared ready to wipe over tomorrow.. fed bunnies..

Need to feed cats and find uniforms.. THEN I can go to bed.. hubby slcking upstairs.. odd really he disappeared the minute I mentioned lunches and uniforms...

rach

right, i have emailed the table plan etc and finished the order of service, bar the copyright license which i need...have emailed people so hopefully will get it asap.

think i am going to scrap the idea of boxing up the pc and taking it tomorrow- I'll find someone to do it after the wedding instead. i am gonna put my elec blanket on, do half an hour of sorting and get to bed as i need to be up about 6.30am!!!

thanks for the kind words Kaz - i think i'll be ok. once i have got the move sorted i will feel better, i am working Tuesday and a long day wed with a trip to Birmingham, but after that work is over and i can relax more. mum arrives saturday and we have a luxury flat booked for a week so i should be ok then. i have handed the hotel accom worried to my mum to sort out as i have enough to do!

see you all soon, thanks for the support! may be sporadic again this week but appreciate all your kindnesses.

pigpen

Rach.. delegation is a great idea.. spreading the load and sharing the fretting.. I'm sure your mum will be delighted to be involved too!

Uniforms to find and I am off to my nest..

See you all in the morning!!! Bright and early!

rach

i'll have an alarm call about 6am please...

evening all :wave:
well I am in again after a disastrous week last week. House getting filthier each day. Am just about keeping on top of laundry, food and clutter, oh and exercise! but cleaning seems out of reach at the mo. Ho hum will try again this week. Definitely not going to try and do it all though, level 1 and maybe 2, only.

Dusty - love your Dusty's week list so am going to try and build that in.

Hi to newcomers esp chops - I had my 3rd baby in September and this thread really helped motivate me to get everything in order before the big event. Can't seem to get back on track yet though I am trying!

lil_me - laughing at you telling michelle off, I remember you doing the same to me over the summer! And of course thanks for the thread again

pigpen - what are breadbombs ?

A and torianut - Happy Birthday :beer:

Made a right prat of myself tonight, went to the gym and arrived just it was closing DOH shows how often I go in the evening! But I was very good and went home via my friends house aned borrowed her Davina DVD for a bit, and I came home and did an hour of it.
Also did a meal plan for next few weeks as I have been shopping for far too much again and spending too much money.

I've been busy today baking my eldest's birthday cake (she's 15 tomorrow) so happy birthday to her (mini-witchy) and to A and torianut!
In fact she was born at half past midnight so this time 15 years ago I was still busy pushing her out! I seem to remember the pushing phase lasting an hour - phew! 9lb 9oz She's taller than me now, and I'm pretty tall at 5'9"!

Besides baking the cake, I have baked bread for the first time in ages, but it meant I didn't need to go out and spend money. I just know I would have bought things besides the bread if I had gone out to ASDA.
See you in the morning I expect, I'm off to bed!

I've tried to post tonight at least 3 times, but for some reason or another been thwarted:

woohoo, i am done for the night!

everything seems to be boxed or labelled, the stuff that isn't going is all together and the washing will hopefully be dry-ish by the morning! think the removal guy said he'd arrive about 7.30 so i had better get up nice and early! 2 more bags of rubbish to stick in the bin in the morning when it's been emptied.

need to do another WM load but i think it can wait until i return on Thursday. I've realised, somewhat annoyingly that although i won't get back to OH's in croydon until at least 8pm on wed night after a long day, my hair appointment for the wedding trial and a cut is 1030am in Bournemouth. oops. guess i'll decide on the day whether to come late wed or early thurs... and then that will be it for the travelling until honeymoon - YAY!!! think we'll get rid of the car once i move up there, i much prefer trains these days and neither of us use it for work. am half tempted to train it up there in the morning as i have a ticket that's unused, but i think better take the car as we might need to go to Ikea or something...

anyway, enough waffling, i'm off to bed. chapter of my book and then zzzzzz i think.

soappie
