    Ok.. I am almost sensible now!

    Tiddles is absolutely shattered after her day at nursery so we are having food early and she can go to bed early.. hubby can have warmed up slop later and make do lol.. spaggy bol. it is quick!

    I've transferred another £50 out of my paypal into my christmas account so that is looking happy again.. only another £50 and I'll have as much saved back in there as I gave my mother. I also have 2 payments to my credit card which don't appear to have gone through properly but I've not had anything to say they have been rejected.. I may give them a call actually .. they might have them on their system but not on mine yet.. it is £300 so not a small amount!

    I have some more ebay parcelling to do and am hoping DS1 gets in before the PO shuts so I can get them posted today..

    Apparently my big bunny is 2 tomorrow.. cake it is then!

    Congratulations PigPen to you and your sisiter, thats wonderful news.:j

    hollyh, hope that once you have the radiator and the lock fixed, that you'l have no futher problems with the car.

    shelley might it be worth doing a flylady type rivision scheduale for your DS, Breaking down revision into more managable sections. Also what type of learner is your son, Visiual, audio or of kinesthetic, as I'm kinesthetic and I find that I take information best by doing, experiencing, touching, moving or being active in some way. I hate being stuck at a desk revising from notes and find it better if I'm able to move around.

    Afternoon all

    Stripped my bed today and got two loads of washing dried. Gave the bedrooms a quick dust and vacuum (I am on holiday after all ;)). Then we went out for a couple of hours and gave the dog a good walk through the arboretum (Westonbirt), because we had half price offer. The bluebells and azaleas were lovely.

    Moved old cooker outside, just got email to say new one is being delivered between 7 and 8.30 am tomorrow! Good job I get up early.

    Went to garden centre to get new toy for dog's birthday next month (yes, sad I know;) but she will be 13 - a teenager). They didn't have any:( Will have to try local shops. But I got a pot for my hosta which the snails keep chomping on and a hebe to put in the place where the hosta has been. Will do the planting when it cools down a bit.

    Hi! I am a bit late joining gor the week again. We had a great weekend away and I managed to see two friends as well as family. Since I got back I have done zilch! Even got kids to make dinner last night. Today I have managed four loads of washing, managed meaning I managed and someone else did it! Dinner is Tuna past bake for just three of us. DS3 started work today. Hurrah!! I will miss him as he is my number one helper but he and we need the money.

    I am going to make dinner and than come back to read all the posts I have missed later.
