            DD is finally in bed and in theory asleep :rolleyes: I was going to rush her into getting showered etc when I realised I still had the portable TV in the corner of the room but it was buried so I dug it out and we watched Nanny McPhee on it DD's hair got a really good comb through, her fringe was trimmed again (thats twice since February!) and she showered while listening to the TV :rolleyes::rotfl::rotfl: I don't usually use the portable TV and if DD wasn't sleeping in my bed tonight I probably wouldn't have, but it was a treat as she's been really good today DD's hair got a really good comb through, her fringe was trimmed again (thats twice since February!) and she showered while listening to the TV :rolleyes::rotfl::rotfl: I don't usually use the portable TV and if DD wasn't sleeping in my bed tonight I probably wouldn't have, but it was a treat as she's been really good today 
 We've both spoken to ex as he's been heavily delayed/diverted so I told him to just go straight home instead of popping in here - he was running over an hour late and he's got to be up and out by 6.30am tomorrow to get to work on time :eek: (The sooner he gets a place nearer work the better, maybe we might see him more often AND he might get a bit more sleep and have a bit more money!) and won't get in as it is until now at the earliest!
 I still have a stack of jobs to do but no motivation to do them. I HAVE to do the ironing though as I washed DD's blouses through again yesterday as I noticed they were looking very grubby and now they're creased to blazes :mad: So ATM the few "to iron" things are on the maiden drying off a bit more, and then I'll get them ironed and upstairs. Infact I think I'm going to sit and type up a "school prep" list so that I don't forget anything this week, and a dailies list. My brain just doesn't want to work again. Maybe its the paint fumes? 
 Right, off to find some blank paper to print out on..... :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0

            :hello: Hi everyone
 What a lovely day and doesn't this hour change make a difference. :j We went out this afternoon to Carsington Waters, kids fed the ducks, threw stones in and spent 1/2 hour in play area. I am so proud of myself, they have started to sell Kipling bags in one of the shops, I liked about 5 of them but....I didn't buy any. :T I do have 2, really could do with a bigger one but can't afford at the moment.
 Well done Vanilla on a successful loaf. :T
 BM on again this morning, better get more flour quick.
 WM x3, Ironing all done, DS2 very helpful, putting it away.
 Hoover filters taken out and cleaned, I always forget that, hope it works better now.0
