Hi Guys!
AnnieB-Hugs to you and your family for today.
WM is on ATM, DW to be put on soon and the toilet has been cleaned.
OH knocked up 2 curries yesterday with chicken that needed using. They are sitting in the fridge and smell lovely. I didnt feel too good last night, so just had beans on toast.
Not too sure what to have for dinner as Im not feeling too great today, but may just do some egg and chips which DD will love with some bread and butter:D
Have hospital later, so just resting up this morning. May do some reading.
Hugs to everyone.

Hey guys :j
Hope every1 is well this morn?
Not in a good mood this morn, noticed a post on the Freebie forum about Consumerpulse website saying they couldt log in and account was closed. Went to check mine and mine is saying the same :mad: Have emailed them asking why, just waiting on a reply. Won't be impressed if they have closed it, as that means I'm gonna lose my £10 gift voucher every mth, which I save for xmas
Put my car in for a service yesterday so I'm now £150 lighter :rolleyes: then got told I need a new cam belt, so more exspense. What with the rising price of petrol I'm wondering if it's worth having a car
Off to Young mums group today then cleaning at my mums. Will pop into town after to run a couple of errands then home to make Lamb & apricot burgers for dinner, then back out this evening to help out at my Mum's office. They are understafed at mo due to employee sickness and holidays so I'm going in to help mum catch up on the back log of work.
Right time for shower, hugs to all,

Good luck with the exam r.mac.
Hope work is tolerable Penny. x
Pam, what is a nut allergy day?
Thinking of you and your family AnnieB and hope you're ok smoky. x
Small amount of paperwork to do today. House is still under control and it's pouring so I will probably do a bit of batch cooking. I have mince defrosting so want to make some bolognese sauce for the freezer and stuffing for a rolled lamb joint I'm doing tommorrow night (reduced to £1;) ) I also have a little pile of sewing repairs to do. Salmon pie and salad for tea and I am out at a school board meeting tonight so need to serve it early.
Hello to Nelski and Snowy Owl if you're watching :hello: Come back soon.
Shez....I hope things pick up soon. xx
Take care

Edit... Fingers crossed for young Taplord.
Edit again... Happy St Georges Day!!0 -
Good morning guys. I'm a little earlier than yesterday. Well i's raining here too today. Just as well really as I'm helping out witht he lunch club at church today. LO is going to her nanas for a day full of fun. Put WM on but prob will have to sit there till I come back this afternoon. Got to go and wash my hair and straighten and get LO washed and dressed and be at my Mums for 09:30, can't see it happeneing myself, but then again I should get off here really. Desperately wanting to do meal plan for the month and try to reduce costs as much as possible. Sammy doing it for £100 per month has inspired me so much. Nightmare!
Happy bithday to all who are celebrating and hugs for anyone that feels that they need one, don't know too mny people on here yet.

Good Morning All
Horrible drizzly rain here today!
WM & TD on!
No I didnt take the van drivers reg plate! Wish I had of done, but I guess in a situation like that, thats the last thing on ur mind! Never mind!
A friend popped in this morning, to let me know another friend who I used to work with, died on Sunday, he was 28! Heart attack!
Pay day on Thursday, and for once in how many yrs, I've actually got money left in the bank! Ive doubled checked and everything has been paid as it should!
Not a clue whats for dinner later, Ive got some sausage defrosting, so may do some home made chips to go with them! Im so out of synch this week with meal planning, or rather not meal planning, someone kick me up the a55 please!!!!!
(((hugs))) to anniebooklover - will be thinking of you & the family today!
Happy Birthday to Stefjb - have a lovely day!
Happy Birthday to Mr CM too
Penny Pincher - egg & chips!!! Now thats something Ive not had in yrs! Enjoy! And hope your'e feeling better soon
