That's very kind of you!!

I've got a few things to put on....try to earn some money back before hubby notices it's gone!

 

[aimee-lou]

Yep, all either in the shops in sales or including postage!

Got some real bargains!! Very proud...it's almost like an acheivement!

 

[florabean1981]

Lawsy mercy you got more patience than me haha

I'll get adding Thanks!

Nah, not patience- sever boredom with OH working away & only being able to get a few lousy hours of overtime a week to try & bump my money up before bubbykins arrives, lol. Only did 2 hours OT today, which hardly seems worth it, but hey, it's an extra £20, so cant complain! All much needed for spending money when I go to Amsterdam at the end of this month.

My best bargain so far has to be a little blue and white adidas tracksuit for $5.99!! At the recent exchange rate thats about £4!! Im trying desperately to post a pic up of it but it won't let me!!

My mum is worse than me now she knows the sex she said she is buying a luxury item every month. Its her first grandchild so I have no doubt the baby is going to be spoilt.

Ok I took the nesting thing to a whole other level this afternoon lol. Started on my room at 2.30pm and stopped at 8pm oops. My housemate made me stop for a cup of tea. I have cleaned the whole room, including the grate in the fireplace, sorted through my clothes, the babys clothes and restacked all of OH's tshirts. Gone through all my paperwork and shredded a load of paperwork from 2007 lol. Filed all the paperwork I've been too lazy to do for the last few months. Put the dvds in their cases and put them on the shelf (as OH has a bad habit of taking them out of the PS3 and stacking them in a pile rather than putting them away). Put away the travel cot. Removed the 2 stickers that had managed to stick themselves to the laminate floor. Hoovered and polished. Oh and in between that I reordered one of the kitchen cupboards and unloaded and reloaded the dishwasher. And did 2 loads of washing.

And that was all after doing a night shift last night so I had only slept from 9am to 1pm. Oops. And am on a 13 hour shift tomorrow and 13 hour shift sunday. Hmmm may have overdone it slightly.

Lol - ditto littlekitten! We have a new mattress being delivered this morning and I had to sort the bedroom out so I started around 13:00 and didn't finish until around 21:00 and need to do more this morning! Everything in this house is starting to look spotless!

I was up at 5am awoken to hiccups

Have a fab day girls...
