Worn Out Wednesday

Good news and bad news.....

Had a great day yesterday with the girls, Cinema, lunch out, park, playing, cooking .....

Today we drove to sunny Glenelg then caught the tram to the city and sorted Tax, 1st Time Buyers grant and tickets for the test match.

The curtains I ordered from John Lewis last week have arrived already.

VERY GOOD NEWS - the shipment should be delivered some time tororrow

The bad news - going to be un-wrapping stuff for days....... and it could be the hottest Christmas Day for 35 years (33-35 or more)
I cancelled a large DD payment and notified the company in writing but they reinstated it and took £100 from my account!

Clive's state pension hasn't been paid this month (it arrived OK for the last 2 months since we moved here)

Good morning Jane and girls, best of luck with the unpacking Jane So glad you are feeling better Jacky, niceish day here last day for sitting the grandchildren the rest of the holiday is my own till back to school on the 4th

Good afternoon girls, well am glad to be able to get on here at last!

Last few days have been stressful to say the least but hey ho onwards and upwards

Georgia has come down with Hand, Foot & Mouth. She is not too bad but finding it a bit sore to eat with a mouth full of blisters and her hands have them too...she only has one or two on her feet!

Ady went back to work on Monday, that was stressful in itself, because I don't think he should be back...but he is a cussid sod and wont listen.

Glad Jacky is feeling better....

Jane I though Oz was quite a flat country but you seem to have more ups and downs than Devon!!!!! Big hugs....hope all the kinks get ironed out eventually.

Hope our Marion is ok...seems strange not seeing her posting.....hope she has gone away and it is not because of her missing John that she has stopped contributing. If you do come on to read hun we are missing you and hugs for you xxx

Thank you for the christmas cards girls, much appreciated as always. Absolute beauties they have been x Love getting cards cos it gives me so much inspiration! And I appreciate them all the more knowing the effort that goes into making them and the extraordinary cost of postage these days. My postage bill came to £28 this year!!!

Well are you all ready for Chrimbo? I am pretty much, got a couple more pressies to wrap cos I did the usual this year and hidf a couple and couldn't remember where the heck I had put them!! Found them yesterday in the top of Georgia's wardrobe! LOL

Evening Gang !
Oooohhh !!! Jane it will soon get sorted , why not only unpack what you really need and just take your time.....
Lou , I am also worried about Marion and said something in a post a while ago , any one heard from her ??? I don't have her mobile number .
Janet your always sooo cheerful , you lovely lady .
Lou , I have been known to be a bit too organised ( in the past when kids were younger !hahaha) and have brought gifts then found them in the back of cupboards , well past Christmas ummmm one year it was the summer ! So now decided to do it all last min hahahahahah
Had a good hospital appointment , with oncologist ... try me on Tamoxifen but may only need a 1-2years ... VERY pleased with me and the brest care nurse was delighted with how Iam doing and my arm is improving daily ...
Going to do Sainsburys at 6am tomorrow .... yes thats right 6am ... get it over and done with hahahahahahahahah,.
Hugs to all xxx

Evening all - late on here today, but have seen all the posts via my phone. Good luck with the unpacking Jane Glad to hear you have had a good result from the hospital Lexie I used to be organised when the children were small - I wasn't crafting or on the computer then Totally disorganised this year. Have finished all the shopping now - I think. Ian & Ruth went to M & S last night to pick up Ruth's sister as she has temporary work there. They asked what I needed so I gave them a list of veg etc which they brought back less discount Just needed to get some food for the remainder of this week this morning and somehow spent another £80 Just picked up a few silly presents.

"Jane I though Oz was quite a flat country but you seem to have more ups and downs than Devon!!!!! lol!" Love that Lou, really made me laugh. Postage is a pain Lou, that's why I tried to keep mine as flat as possible this year so they would go through the slot. Hope Ady is ok and poor Georgia is getting better - don't want it to spoil her Christmas. Hugs to you all and to anyone else who needs one.

I wondered if Marion was posting on her other forums - I know she is on one that Karen uses. Hope she is ok.

forgot to say Lou hope your little un is ok , that did the rounds when my kids were little , they did'nt get that or slap cheek !!! hope Ady is ok and not working tooo hard .You got a result Jacky , a bit of discount ah !!
Well I 'll have to go to bed soon if I am getting up at crack of sparrows to get Sainsburys shop over and done with !!! speak tomorrow hahahahhahah
