    SSL - superstrong house selling vibes coming your way - have you got more viewings lined up? It will happen, otherwise you wouldn't have got the other house. There's a set pattern and all will turn out right for you. (I have decreed it! :rotfl:)

    Thanks Pink Fairy - just feeling a bit depressed. Ex is being an @rse over child maintenance, I'm due to go down to half pay next month and I'm wondering if my impulsive decision to buy the bung was such a great idea :confused: *sigh* Never mind, its only money and compared to everyone else's problems, I feel a bit fraudulent...

    In Scotland, we have 'open viewing.' So between 7-9pm Thurs and 2-4 on Sundays, you wait in and hope for the best. If viewers can't make that time, they phone my solicitor to make an appt. Fingers crossed for tomorrow :o

    Happy Birthday Daisy Doll

    Kids driving me sensless already - they are arguing non stop. Everytime they do it all of them are being dispatched to their rooms. They had to strip their beds last time up there - they will either learn or their rooms will all be done today.

    Happy birthday Daisydoll and Jill!!

    Hugs to those that need them - a quick squizz through sees Nicki and Pigpen especially.

    Kaz - how did DSs overnight go?

    I've done only the very basics needed to survive this week. I'm on day 6 of 20 days work without a break! Wanted to cry this morning I was so tired. I had a nanny nap this afternoon after my course finished and will head back to bed very soon.

    Today I've done most of my homework (to be handed in next Friday), washed and hung on the airer two loads of washing.

    Boys need to change their beds.
    We need to change ours (tomorrow)


    Will put on a load of washing before bed.
    Another load in the morning and hang out.
    Weekly menu
    Grocery list
    Work 10-4
    Get groceries
    Change bed
    Get kids to: vacuum living areas, change their beds, tidy their rooms.
    Dinner will be mac cheese and oven chips - comfort food!
    Will try to get up early enough to walk the dogs - I need the fresh air!

    That will be it. Nothing else planned. I will be lucky if I cope with that.

    Daisydoll, JillD and taffy a very Happy Birthday to you all!

    ((hugs)) for those who need one, especially Denise

    Well it's a soggy one here, DP said get him up if I found where there was a car boot (he asked me at 4.30am, no idea why) I know where it's on in Houghton but it's raining so I left him in bed :D will find out why he wanted to go then might brave the seaham one this afternoon, I like car boot sales but don't like getting soggy to go to one. Actually thinking about it now, it might not be worth going, because no doubt he'll want to be back by 3pm to watch football.....

    Plan for today is chase my tail keeping the place tidy as the boys will be playing inside all day with it raining (I think the boys are seeing how many toys they can bring downstairs before I loose my temper!) Laundry I need to do 2 loads, maybe more (thankfully pull up saved sheets last night) but that'll have to go on airers. Might do some baking aswell as we're out of 'nice things' and I will only end up buying them if I don't bake them. Need to finish my meal plan which I made a pathetic start on yesterday, must remember to get the chicken out of the freezer for tomorrow.

    Wonder what's on the weekend list? I forgot to have a look last night....
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
