    Evening all,

    Aww Triker they're adorable.

    Massive hugs Kazw.

    I've just done 2 hours of ironing and then put it all away. My basket is empty:j until tomorrow:rolleyes:.

    We went to the cinema to see the new Ice Age film earlier. It was Ds2's first time at the cinema and after getting up twice for the toilet he fell asleep about 2/3 of the way through:rolleyes:. He enjoyed what he saw though.

    They both calmed down quickly earlier although i've still got Ds1's xbox and he's not having it back until he's cleaned his room;).

    Finished my book, so hopefully have also soaked all the dirt off in the bath :p. I'm now going to cover myself in oil which is supposed to be good for prolonging tans, but also likely to stain the sheets as it has carrot oil in it :rolleyes:. Still, I can't wear turquoise next week if I haven't made an effort to make sure my legs are brown!

    Night all... see you tomorrow!

    Evening all

    Had a really good time at the street party. DS3 really enjoyed the barn dancing in the middle of the road.

    All in bed now exhausted so heading up myself, clean sheets night.

    See you all tomorrow x

    Morning all - up at stupid o'clock again. Been up for over half an hour as it is!!! De-cluttered a coffee so far and that's it!! Won't be on much today, will try and catch up later.

    Morning All

    :jHelen Jelly - that's fantastic news - hope you have a lovely day!

    Triker - nice chooks

    Hugs Kazw

    Good news on the house thrifty

    Ended up going out for tea last night and then we went for a walk around Westport Lake. Came back and I collapsed on the settee - went to bed about 9 after I'd apparently been snoring for the last half hour:rolleyes: - well I know I didn't see the end of Mr & Mrs which finished at 8.30:o. I blame it on Aunt Flo as she's due a visit!

    I need to go and finish sorting DD's clothes out as I ended up leaving some on her bedroom floor when we went out last night.

    Have a good day all

    Jue

    Morning everyone,

    Very minimal flying for me this morning. Off out for the day later which will make a lovely change.:D

    carlsberggal - your not alone with the lack of sleep. I've gone back to not sleeping properly again and waking up between 4.30 and 5.30 am every morning.:rolleyes: It's starting to drive me nuts. But at least I can grab a cat nap now without 'feeling guilty'.;)

    Hope everyone has a lovely day.

    Oh and congratulations to helen jelly I think it was.

    Be back on the flylady wagon properly.......ish as of tomorrow. I promise. ;)

    TTFN xxxx
