juliejim

I'm back - on my new PC!

Glad you've returned in one piece SAV3R

My LR which I spent so long tidying this morning now looks as if I did nothing!

Anyone for a HHC 4 - 4.30?

apart from the basics I've done hardly anything for the last couple of days.:o
DS off school sick today and I've not done much apart from the washing.:o oh, did put the BM on for the first time in months and have some yummy bread.

I will try harder!!!

juliejim didn't take you long to set it up.

Feeling loads better :j :j :j , have put another load in the WM and TD and put the BM on but yet again the bread is no good. The BM cost 50 pounds and i have never yet got a good loaf out of it:mad: .

Hubby in bed but need to get him up to go lift his meds. Kiddies are crazy today fighting.

Right cuppa first.

Afternoon all.

Did Mr T's this afternoon and :j YAY :j there were more things I buy on offer so I've transferred the savings to the savings account and updated my signature. I now have enough toothpaste and shampoo to last about 6 months and the dog won't go hungry in a long time! One thing I noticed is that Lurpak is back down to £1.00 on the sel - but it's not yellow sticker offered - it's the ordinary white label. Last week, it was £1.29. I wonder if this is either a mistake or it really has dropped in price?

I get to philosophising a bit though and realised I'm fortunate because I'm one of those who actually have a bit of spare money so can cash in on these deals. Those of you who are on really, really tight budgets can't benefit by stocking up ahead.

The only real flying I've done though was giving the fridge a good clean before I put the shopping away.

Hex - loved the picture of the cat in the bag!

Only because I got my mate to do most of it for me!:D

Soappie - what dog food's on offer?

SAV3R

Vanilla don't give up on the BM, I felt inspired by everyone on here to start baking again. I tried a loaf by hand but burnt the top, the middle not quite cooked. I was then given a Kenwood BM, only tried the fast loaf yet, but it was great. :T I am sure if you post what went wrong the more experienced out there will advise.

I also started making muffins, 3 batches made so far, the raspberry ones are gorgeous, but they don't do much for my diet.

The pedigree complete stuff - usually retails at £5.27 for a bag, is down to £3.96 at the mo. I feed the dog a cheapo tin of tesco chunks in gravy and sprinkle some of the pedigree stuff on top.

Doodling around on here while waiting for phone call to pick up DS2 and DD who have after school stuff today.

It's been a horrible day weatherwise, rain all day. I drove through so many half flooded bits of road on the way home after school today. I'm half asleep now, rain and grey always makes me feel sleepy!

Doubt very much if my three are going to do anything in their rooms, but I might yell at DD to pick up all the stuff on her floor. I'll wash their bedlinen tomorrow, and whisk the vaccuum round.

Just heard from DD that her trip to India will now leave at 4.30am :eek: on Saturday rather than in the early afternoon - aargh!! At least I'm quite good at waking up in the mornings - but not usually that early. Would the headteacher notice if I just drop her off in my pj's?? Or just leave her there the night before?

sav3r - hugs, tuck up on the sofa and watch some rubbishy chick flick, you need to convalesce.

vanilla - hugs to you to, and I hope you are feeling better very soon.
