YAY! It's techinically my "Friday," and since we won't have internet access for a few days, I hope no one minds if I go ahead:

1. Have the next two days off to finish moving - whoop whoop - it's Friday for me and DH!   ;D

2. Gonna spend our first night in our new place tonight.... sooo excited! I can't believe how toasty and warm we will finally be!

3. Getting my hair done on Friday by someone who is apparently the best hairdresser around these parts - can't wait!

4. My best friend booked her flight last night and we decided to wait a bit on booking our other holiday so we could spend the money on her and live it up while she is in town! We will be spending a few days in Edinburgh with her next month, so that is exciting enough for me since I haven't been. Will book for Greece or Spain in April to hopefully go in June, methinks.

5. We have changed the company name, and I struggle to get the new name out every time I answer the phone!  :-[

I hope everyone has a great Friday when it rolls around!  ;D

2.) Bunch of errands this weekend
3.) I cannot be bothered with working today...
4.) I'm struggling of thinking of 5 things to post...
5.) Happy Friday Ya'll

1. Not sure if I'll get into work for my last day.
2. Not sure I'm going to be able to get everything into my bags for the move.
3. Worried about driving to Cardiff tomorrow morning because of the snow.
4. There seems to be something wrong with the Sky dish (probably the snow), so I'm stuck watching BBC1 right now. They keep pointing out this one car that couldn't make it up the hill.
5. I am almost out of milk for my coffee.

1. At the beginning of the week I loved snow. Now I can't stand it and wish it would go away.

2. I've been trying for three hours to log on to our remote server so I can check my work emails but it's not working.

3. I'm feeling determined to change my attitude about getting up to exercise. Next week I'm turning over a new leaf.

4. I have a huge to-do list but I don't really feel like doing anything on it.

5. My skin is super dry - I need a spa day!!!

1) this is not really snow. i am qualified to say that as i'm from chicago.

2) i finally have an excuse for putting the bairn in her snowsuit.

3) worried about putting said beast back on the regular antibiotics tomorrow (hospitalised yet again last weekend).

4) have to make a rhubarb crumble to take to sister-in-law's for dinner tomorrow night.

5) cheese & coleslaw sandwiches from the canteen at work are the highlight of my week. how said is that?

1. I'm very happy it's Friday. This week has dragged.
2. No plans for the weekend but I hope to get a facial tomorrow.
3. Sick to death of the snow turned slush and not looking forward to the prospect of more to come.
4. I have a drawer full of root veggies that I need to find something to do with.
5. Frustrated by not getting post for nearly a week. The milkman managed to make it here today and Monday.

1. No customers were in today so the manager said one of us could go home early.  They didn't need to ask me twice.
2. Despite two days off it still seemed like a long week.
3. Our washing machine is being delivered on Sunday after not having one for far too long!
4. The eleven year old has had two mufti days in a row.
5. I'm bored with the snow.

1. I NEED it to be spring.
2. My job sucks.
3. I'll be cooking up a feast for a dinner party tonight - belated birthday dinner.
4. Yorkshire Yanks book club tomorrow.
5. Hoping to then hibernate until next Tuesday when I have to return to my suck-a** job.

1. Sleep deprivation has been the theme of this work week, and I am so ready for a good, long sleep in tomorrow. :D
2. I thought I was making fantastic progress on this project due next Thursday (before I leave for vacation), but I've just encountered a serious hangup. So I'm posting on UKY forums instead. That outta fix it!
3. I'm helping my friend do her taxes and take photos of things she's selling tonight. In trade, she's knitting me a beautiful scarf to go with the hat she knit me for this winter.
4. Even though it's 7F (-14C) outside and there is 2ft of snow on the ground everywhere but the roads, I'm perfectly content with the conditions. I really do love winter.
5. This week finally kicked it up a notch, and I no longer feel like time is standing still.  ;D :D
