    Never did get back this morning with my list!

    Here is how today has played out:
    Got up after first night in new bed - OH & I both decided it will take a while to get used to it
    Got washing underway - did three loads, including more blankets
    Emptied DW
    DS4 had a friend stay over last night - they watched DVDs and played computer all night - sent them off for a snooze
    Breakfast
    Walked dogs
    Ordered prescription
    Bought a couple of folders for Budget advice work
    Picked up milk and a few other bits and pieces

    (Notice no real house work . . . .)

    Lunch
    Spent some time with DS3 helping him prepare emails, applications for some courses for next year
    Spent a half hour filing papers
    Spent about an hour in the garden - a bit of cutting back, a bit of weeding, and put some gypsum on (I've only got a couple of wee gardens atm)

    MrsV - good luck with the house selling
    germish - I like the Kay Scarpetta books, too
    Tash - I HAVE had a happy day :)

    Morning all

    Had a really nice surprise when I woke up today - it's not raining!!!! And my kidney seems to have settled down fine. Won't be able to fly this evening because of the meeting after work etc. Probably won't even have time to log on until late either so have a lovely day and evening ladies.
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    Just popped in to say morning whist the hair straightners warm up.

    Will put my list up later though I doubt I'll get alot done today. Off to work at 7.30 then got to find DS a suit for Saturday, which I fear will take a very very very long time.

    Good Morning!

    Soappie - Glad your kidneys have settled.

    It's not raining so I might attempt a few loads in the WM today. Will start one off when I take DS1 to preschool in a bit.

    Should be able to get through most of my list today. DS1 out til 3, OH is at work and DS2 will be learning how to pick up his toys and do the dusting :) Might even be able to get on top of the thread and read every post properly.

    Thats because you've sent it my way! Has been pouring all night. Glad you're feeling better.

    I'm knackered, been awake off and on since 4am. Got woken up by some t0ssers trying to get into my flat:mad: threatened to call the police, they scarpered before hubby could get them. Couldnt really settle after that, kept jumping at the slightest noise:o

    Will look at a list after i've had another cuppa.

    LO is feeling a bit better i think, she asked to go to bed early last night as she was sore. So gave her painkillers and she went straight to bed at about 6.15pm. Think she needed the sleep.
    The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.
