    :D

    It takes a LOT to pee me off but reporting my son to the police for acting in self defence will do it! If it was me I'd have gone out and asked what was going on and sorted it out if I could.. but I'm not a coward normally.

    My hayfever medication makes me drowsy too, but if you persevere it goes(or it does for me anyway). When i start taking mine again i take the first one at night just before i go to bed, same the 2nd night. By the third day i'm fine:D

    I started getting hayfever a few years ago, and the muti made me so drowsy but it's not a nice drowsy. Seasick pills do the same. When I gave up dairy I stopped getting hayfever (and also the arthritis I used to get in my hands in winter).

    So far today I've done the lounge. I pulled out the tv because I noticed yesterday there was so much carp underneath it. I also needed to tidy up the cables. Unfortunately the aerial came out from the wall and I can't get it connected again so DH will have to sort that out when he gets back.

    I've also done two loads of washing - one on the line, and the towels are going into the dryer (they get too stiff dried outside).

    I've got dough for 4 loaves on the first rising atm.

    I now need to go to the dump and get rid of all the recycling I've been collecting as well as a couple of bits of junk I don't need anymore. I've got a couple of bags of clothes for the charity shop too so I might do that today, or leave it until tomorrow.

    Need to organise dinner because it's a rush night tonight - DS has Cubs at 6.30, then DD1 has twirlers at 7.30.

    Back on MSE again! to take control of my finances and not let it control me. :T May grocery challenge £41.96/140
