    Evening - count me in again this week.

    I don't know how much i will manage - depends on how ill i still feel and if the boys are feeling any better, but i will do what i can, even if it is just remove the floordrobe that is accumulating at the side of the bed - all me, i am so gross.

    I aim tomorrow to:
    • go to bank to get out cash for sister and retirement pressie, and to sign that blasted form that i still haven't done
    • make butternut squash and red lentil soup
    • ring sisters to sort out arrangements for having my tooth out on tuesday
    • HHI
    • sort a load of socks that have been washed this weekend
    • charge my phone
    • make chicken liver pate
    • remove floordrobe
    • wash a load of my undies and PJs
    • check internet banking
    • do pigsback
    • get towels out of TD and put away
    enough to get me going. See you all tomorrow girls

    dusty you best stop. I am hardly a walking advert for the system at the moment, but i am still trying to make my house better. It is you lot that make it so entertaining and spur me on to think of different things, so don't go.

    Michelle, x

    Dusty - you need to stay because you cheer me up....end of story!

    Don't worry - I'm still doing the chatting - it's the flying I'm not so sure on :rotfl:

    I've done all the ironing. Sad as I am I love the feeling of kids uniforms all being ready for the week. Due to hand me downs they all have 5 polos (little one has more plus 5 sweats and 5 shorts/troussers) and 3 sweats and troussers so no need to wash it again until next weekend.

    Still not quite sure of my flying plan but think it wil be:

    Kitchen:
    Floor
    AGA
    Granite
    Sink
    Check freezer

    Hoover all of downstairs
    Hoovers sofas x 3
    Mop hall and toilet floors
    Downstairs toilet
    dust living room
    dust family room

    This week
    Finish sorting bond
    email to post office
    pen refils
    return bananas to lidl )
    buy bread ) all one trip
    check for elderflowers )
    ebay x1
    New backpack for DS2
    Haircut for DS1
    New trainers for DS3

    Garden
    Check for last of strawberries
    sow more lettuce/spinach/spring onions
    Sow biennials
    Feed tomatoes/rhodi/bamboo
    Tidy long border
    plant up mint
    plant out lupin
    plant out dahlias
    prune back shrub border

    Ok that will do for now.

    Sleep tight
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair

    I'm with you on this one.

    Every year I buy ten of everything (not very MSE I know, but then having twins means no hand me downs!) then there is enough for them to have a clean unifrom every day if needs be (and generally they do!) Then it all gets washed, dried, and ironed at the weekend.
    Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j

    Electra You are welcome to PM me anytime but I must admit my german is a bit on the rusty side.....*perhaps if I soak it in cola...that's supposed to remove rust*
    It would help me too actually cause mum's apparently handed out my email to some of my long lost friends in Germany lately....Can't remember when I actually used it last....but it was a looong time ago.

    Guten Nacht/Good Night all.

    Good Morning!

    My darling boys are at it again with the 3am wake up :( Not so bad for me as I'm off out in a minute, just meant half an hour or so less in bed this morning. OH is still upstairs trying to fight them back to sleep, but I imagine they'll all be down here before I leave :)

    Just had a quick flit around the front room to clear the bits that OH left behind last night (how much effort is it to put a dirty glass in the DW?!) and I'm sipping my first coffee of the day.

    See y'all when I get home!
