I have managed to make rhubarb chutney today and lil_me has inspired me to make some bread later. I think I will try the rhubarb cake I attempted last year too. I have still got enough rhubarb to feed an army!

Must go and post video, it was offered on Freecycle so it feels wierd to be posting it!

Afternoon all, went to go shopping with my sister and got to hole in the wall but no card in my purse, phone hubby who had it last and where is it, in his wallet in scotland.:mad: Thankfully i have a small stash so it covered me for some shopping.

No flying done here yet but kitchen and livingroom badly need done so better go and make a start.

Hi

I'm quite pleased with how my list is looking. I might actually get to the end of the week having finished it all, instead of getting to Sunday and thinking oh i'll do it next week now:rolleyes: . I've hoovered upstairs for the first time in about 3 weeks.:eek:

I'm really annoyed, i took the boys to this indoor soft play type thing today and Ds2 bit a little girl. I was mortified the poor little thing had a horrible mark on her arm. I gave him a rollocking then took him home i wasn't letting him play after that.I feel awful now.

Terrific Tuesday - Bathroom of Bubblovia and Sparkling Study
Sort through the shoes and coats and bags.. make them pretty!
HHC in the understair cupboard!

Friday - those frightening Friday kids rooms and spare rooms
Level One
[STRIKE]Vacuum the floor, even if it's just where you can see
Level Two
Clear away anything that isn't in it's place, clothes, toys, books etc
Dusting.. all those shelves and flat fluffy surfaces!! Don’t forget the light shade!!
Level Three
Strip beds and replace with fresh linen ..
[/STRIKE]Extra Task List
Pick a job you hate and do that.. cleaning the oven, scrubbing out the fridge, washing the windows.. go get it over and done with!

The course was fab today too. Really enjoyed it. A tiny bit of me wishes I was going to the party tonight but i've already got my PJs on, i've got a nice dinner in the oven, a bottle of wine ready to be opened and a choice of films to watch tonight so I think i've made the decision and i'll be quite a bit richer for not going.

Hugs to all who need them. I'm going to have a catch up on the thread now xx

lil_me

Oh vanilla that must be annoying! I went today and forgot my card, amazing how careful it made me be with limited cash on me and I came back with some. I might have to do it more often
hollyh your son isn't the first to bite another child and won't be the last, try not to feel awful, it's just something most kids do at some point, some more often than others. I am sure he'd have had his reasons.
boddy it's just started to ease off a bit here, maybe will where you are soon , hope it's a quiet night for you

I've got my eyes on some job lots of clothes on ebay, oh change that I just won them, not something I have done before buying a job lot but thinking as long as they are cheap enough anything I don't like I can stick back on. I need some 'variety' and when I go shopping I just buy big baggy black tops and trousers, DP made me buy a printed more fitted one this week and commented how much better it looked, I spent the day thinking I had something on my top kept going to flick it off. The seller has another few lots so might email saying I'll pay after the others finish tomorrow, this seller is selling more clothes than I own I think :rotfl: I feel wardrobe deprived!

Just been emailing one of my cousins, see if he wants to meet up when we're staying near where they live in August, must be 3 years since I seen them last. I'd told his sister but she's got a useless memory so always tell him aswell.

Time to update me list

[strike] Meal plan and shopping list[/strike] need to just decide days etc
[strike] Shops - Netto, butchers, caravan shop for hitch cover, [/strike]maybe a charity shop or 2 depending on time limited cash so kept out of charity shop
[strike] Put away the bags of stuff that have been sat there since....thursday
Clean and tidy kitchen
Make some bread (I've been lazy and not made any for weeks, emptied what was in freezer then bought it :O )
Make some cookies and brownies, again been lazy lately[/strike]
Studying - reading/working on TMA one reason I am very pleased the suns gone away
Vacuum through downstairs

Clean DW filter[/strike]
Fold dry laundry and get it put away

Not doing too bad actually, simple dinner of quiche and salad for me later on after the boys go to bed. They've been horrible, especially DS2 who likes to be outside a lot, they're annoying the life out of each other and me, early night?

Pollybear

Afternoon/evening all

It's chucking down with rain now but it was sunny and windy for a good part of the day so I got two loads of washing dried. All put away.

Otherwise I just generally tidied up and stuff. DH has gone fishing for the weekend (mad) and DD2 is going out tonight so it's just going to be me and the dog. And she's asleep
