    After starting the week with good intentions I still have done no housework. I have so many jobs on my to do list that I could not do when I was working that I can now, I have been doing all the nice stuff which involves shopping and being out of the house. It is only 2 days since I was made redundant though so I may eventually start flying.

    Must get back to revising for tomorrows interview!

    Well I've done not much again today :o:rotfl: BUT the weather forecast for tomorrow is terrible so I've made a decision - DD and I have borrowed 2 Spiderman films from my brother (I already have Spiderman 1 ;) ) and she's on a promise of being able to sit down and watch the entire trilogy IF she helps me clean house tomorrow RIGHT THROUGH. so I'm going to sort out last weeks list and post it so we don't put the computer on at all tomorrow until its all done ;) Although I guess that means I should really sort out some of my music from the PC to CD tonight...

    mubbath is there any wine left I could really do with a glass
    Skipsmum (((hugs))) to you, hope your DS is on the mend.
    Jamiedodger (((hugs)))
    Soappie the french days look fab.

    Well no dog biscuits for me today as took DS to stay in sis's as [EMAIL="I@m"]I'm[/EMAIL] in wok tomorrow. So Pigpen does that mean a whipping with the golden feather duster of power and spanked with the golden fluffy mule for me. Ooooo!!! if so can I have Daniel Craig give me my punishment:D :D:D , :think: :think: :think: maybe not as I'm sure if I had that to look forward to the rest of the housde would end up looking like DS room.

    I'm back!

    Can't see the kitchen floor as everything's been dumped in there. Not had too bad a time seeing as the weather hasn't been brilliant. Went on the beach for an hour on Saturday and got sandblasted! It was nice to see my grandparents and spen some time with them as I haven't seen them since last year.

    Don't know what I've missed but huge hugs to all esp. pigpen, g&b, jamiedodger and skipsmum.

    Happy belated birthday Serena

    :hello: to all newbies.

    Sorry if I've missed anyone
