Morning all, still trying to wake up at the minute. Kids are fed, i have my cup of tea in hand. Am aiming for gettng started on my list at around 9am, that gives me a couple of hours before i need to take DS1 to nursery, DS2 to creche and myself to my english course.
Will update later.
PS thank you to everyone sending hugs, Dr was at granda's yesterday and says he probably has a day or 2 left. He's not taking fluids anymore and his hands and feet have started to go blue.
And it's his 80th birthday today.An' It Harm None, Do As Thou Will

Using my own list again here too, sowwy. No eBay to do I've flung everything and what I could sell wouldn't be worth the effort, so, not doing that either lol I'm such a rebel :rolleyes:
Got the surveyor coming this avo so need to make sure the entire house is spit spot, inc. the garden :eek: not ventured out there yet for it's annual tidy gotta do it today though I'd be too embarrassed to leave it. It also means I'll have to venture into teenies room for dishes/remake bed (he's done it but not properly) hoover etc.....littleys already tidied her room this morning - wonders never cease!

Morning everyone,
Looking lovely and bright here this morning for a change, but still cold.
Hopefully be able to get a few loads of washing out on the line, have loads to do. Really want to completely gut the house out this week.:eek: It's now beyond a joke.
So i'll update later hopefully with a load done and if anyone see's my light on give me a massive kick. See ya all later...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.:j :j0 -
I just bought a breadmaker:D Have been wanting one for ages but didnt want to spend £100, Mr T's have a reduced one for £25;) Its an own brand one, but it mentions Panasonic in the description, so kinda hoping they made it:o

This is it, please tell me i havent just wasted my money! Interestingly enough, reading the blurb on this and then the one on the panny, they read almost exactly the same. Or is that wishful thinking...The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -

Hi everyone,
Louby-lou - well done with ebay - quite addictive once you start!
arwenelf - :hello: Have fun this week!
Summermoon & family - (hugs)
I'm in again this week although will be a tough one this week with all the extra bits on (Mon lino - down so all the stuff from larder in on kitchen counters) Tuesday - shouldn't be too bad. Wednesday - cooker fitting - will be a mess - we found out over the weekend when the old cooker was collected that previous owner installed the gas to the cooker himself (so another DIY from h*ll job to be fixed) I have a nasty feeling about this (i.e. cupboards and worktop out to be fixed but we will see) Thursday -I volunteered to take MIL up to Glasgow so she can go shopping, which by the time I collect her and drop her off will be the day gone. Friday everyone is at home!
ooohh - must not forget to go to dentist tonight when DH arrives home :rotfl:
ok I stand to be corrected but I *think* I have found all the nails/staples in the subfloor (last lot of lino was laid over them :rolleyes: ) I have also managed to give myself a huge blood blister on finger tip in the process *queasy*
w/e was spent getting appliances out - emptying larder, 2 x long lunch and finding all the carpet in our bedroom (only one tub to be sorted through and a few bits to put away and I will need to get a duster out:rotfl: ) Kids made the most of the 1st bit of decent weather and were out in the garden - think they missed it! rosey cheeks and noses all round

G&B ooooooooh get you

I'm glad that's done, didn't sleep too well last night knowing I had to do it all, was dreaming about cleaning, that's that daft job to blame(I love it really) I also phoned in my hours for work which I nearly forgot about.
Got to head out to the garden shortly but need some sort of food stuff first *tummy rumbles*0 -

'Unique Panasonic cookery advice line'. taken from the blurb on the tesco link, looks like you bagged a bargainbut I don't have one so have no idea what I am talking about!!!!
