    Ok, Progress report of wannabe OSer.

    Urgent "To Do":
    Washing load - must remove from machine and dry.
    Dishwasher - finished, waiting for lazy mare to clean rest of kitchen so contents can be stored.
    Bathroom - door firmly closed
    Wardrobe - doors jammed open;rail collapsed through overload
    Do budget

    OK, those are the things I noticed. I will attempt to remedy at least 2 of the above before nightfall.

    Achieved:
    Made (and ate) bread
    Had healthy (for me) lunch.
    Had flue jab and didn't scream icon7.gif
    Remembered to be here for organic box scheme delivery (it was the hunky driver today :D)
    lentil thingy in slow cooker!!!
    Gym = 30 mins aerobics + 45 mins weights and stretches
    Sorted 1 shelf of wardrobe
    Returned neighbours little dog fed, walked and in reasonably good health considering it spent 3 days with me (must find new foot warmer for tonight)
    Did run round with vac.
    Money spent in shops = stocked up on 3:2 things that I really do use from Boots and nothing else (they have Sanctuary bath stuff on 3:2 in my local branch, how cool is that :j)
    Money spent online = organic box = out of food budget.

    I'm feel like a reformed woman icon10.gif
    My first reply was witty and intellectual but I lost it so you got this one instead :D
    Proud to be a chic shopper
    :cool:

    Ladies and Math I would like to apologise for Racy Red who is about as old style as an ikea coffee table but bless her she is trying (very trying). Mind you in her defense she does bake bread and if the crew down the arms knew that there would be uproar! (all wanting her bread of course) the day she has washing blowing in the wind will be a momentous one. (and that I understand!)
    Apologies again and if any body wants a drink in the arms later Racy is in the chair:D

    Hi Everyone,

    I am really happy today, as I have finally passed my driving test after 5 attempts! :dance: When I found out I burst into tears. I can finally go shopping without DH moaning at me. Not much OS stuff done today, as I spent money on a bottle of wine to celebrate.

    LOL
