Mmmmm soup was scrummy!! Had enough to put 2 portions in the freezer too!
That's enough cleaning for my today. I'm putting my poorly ankle up and watching Extreme makeover.

Just got to wait on my landlord, & walk the dog later.

Hmm, not quite. Only 10 programs(not too bothered about that) but no nut/seed dispenser:mad:

Well Hello all. Have done NOTHING on my house today. Have popped to Tesco and the children were a nightmare!!! Nt taking them both next time. They were such a pain. Any that is all put away.

Popped round my mum's house and have had a little reshuffle in my niece's room and hopefully she will like. Will pop round there after I collect DD and DS to make sure.

Then I guess I should sort out my house. Did the kitchen yesterday (seems so much longer than that) so will do the living room today-or some of it.


Hugs to all those that need it and those that don't-tough you can have some anyway

Am still flying - nearly there

Car isn't head gasket so that's not too bad. Seems I put too much oil in it but I've asked them to service her as well as she needs one - don't know what the financial damage is yet but it'll be cheaper than I thought. Should get her back later this evening.

Back from hearing kids read in school. Need to have a cuppa then pop down the post office with the ebay parcels then kids tea and DS3 swimming lesson.

Had my Asda shopping delivered today. I ordered currants. The 500g bag showed as 20p (the 1kg bag is £1.34). I wanted them anyway so I ordered a 500g bag, happy that if they were 70 or 80p I'd still have them. Well, they turned up and they've been charged at 20p.

So if anyone is think of ordering currants from Asda, you might be lucky too! Worth checking online if you're making an order.
