Morning :wave:

Michelle take it easy, rest, rest, rest xx
Rumbly congrats on the house, how exciting.
Welcome new people :hello:

I was woken up at 5am by littley who'd had a bad dream so plonked herself into my bed and I couldn't get back off, luckily I've got the day off so I can snooze if I want, thank goodness, I'm bound to be yawning my head off by 10am.

List for today, still got my bedroom to do, however I did strip my bedding and bunged it in the wash before I left yesterday, but........didn't have the energy to do anything else other than put the bottom sheet on last night so need to finish that today, the whole room will only take about 10 minutes, if that!

Going to take DD1 to Asda for her shopping, she's flush today at last, all this time without any money's really getten her down. Got to phone up the WTC peeps today too, they want info on my self-employment which I haven't got so need to have a chat with them, so I'll be using OH's phone which has free minutes - yay! but other than that I'm in the house and I can crack on, but I'm not doing more than two hours all day in here, I'm sick of the sight of hoovers and cleaning stuff lol

Morning all,

I failed spectacularly at the flying yesterday. Had a late meeting at work which went on and on and on so got back quite a bit later than usual. Logged on here to look at fly list then the phone rang - best friend down the road. One hour later, phone call is finished and then the door bell rings. Another friend popped by.

By the time that visit had finished, it was nearly 8pm and we were all starving. Just as well I had the stew in the slow cooker! So did the veg, ate, washed up, then it was nearly 9.30 and time for bed. I promise to try harder today!

I'm going to sweet talk my boss today.We've had a rush project come in that wasn't planned for so I've offered to work on it as overtime over the weekends (from home). I shall suggest today that it really would be better for me to work on it from home on Friday as well - I get things done sooo much quicker here without the distractions in the office. Wish me luck!

Have a good one ladies

cha97michelle

morning ladies.

I feel a lot fresher this morning after one dose of antibiotics, and in bed for 10:30 in the end. I actually sprung out of bed, but i did need the loo. No packed lunch to make as my lunch is still at work from yesterday.

I will be at work again today, teaching 3 lessons, and working hard, but making sure i am sat somewhere comfy with my headphones on.

morning soappie that SC is always useful isn't it.

Anyway, best get dressed, i need to get to work earliesh so i can rescue my laptop/planner from the assistant heads office where i abandoned it yesterday. I couldn't be bothered to carry it in my rush, but without my mark book and planner i am really stuck.

Anyway, have a nice day - see you all tonight.

Michelle, x
