    Good Morning!
    I'm up eatly too - well on laptop in bed with cuppa!
    Written a list, feeling very organised! I have my Mum ans Stepdad coming to help with my house move, packing my boxes and ferrying them round the corner to my new house. I move out of the house I'm in on Friday. Bit sad as I didn'twant to move, been here 10yrs, but husband left us (me and 2 dds) last year and can't afford to pay the mortgage on my own.
    Oh well, new start and all that - quite looking forward to it!!

    SO my day will be clearing, packing, tidying etc!
    I've also written a very short shopping list for the week, enough to get us through and using mostly stuff out of the freezer.

    Have a good day....;)
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    I hope moving out isn't too hard on you milly, try and look at it as a fresh start though.

    I've been up since 5:45! not sure why as I don't even get up that early during the week...

    I'm going to clean up a couple of bikes to sell, go shopping and then round to see my dad, DS will be back later to cause mayhem but I may try to tidy his room before then...:eek: :eek:

    I got up at silly am too - not quite sue why, I was just awake. Been to the shop and bought 2 News of the Worlds for the Tesco voucher, fed the animals, that's about it so far. Time for caffeine now methinks.:D

    Edit - P.S. Good luck with the moving stuff Milly.
    :D Make a list of important things to do today. At the top, put 'eat chocolate'. Now, you'll get at least one thing done today. :D
