Afternoon all - I have been without internet before now so just catching up.

I've been out all day doing bits so not a huge problem.

Came back from shops and needed to shuffle freezer stuff to get new bits in so being a perfect fly lady I emptied and washed out all the drawers and defrosted it - all done in 25 mintues and now all back in.

I've already done the kitchen this week. Just having a cuppa then need to get the washing in, and get dinner sorted.

DS1 will need to be on here in a minute to finish his coursework for tomorrow.

Triker have you found the house insurance?

Serena - hope your DS1 got on ok at the hospital and hope it stayed dry for sports day - my big to had theirs this afternoon as it rained yesterday.

RMC have a great time in Belfast

Shell so sorry to hear about the Will.

I've been poking a stick at the cleaning this week. Feeling down but don't know why I feel I'm achieving something on the GC this month so all's not completely lost :rolleyes: I haven't managed to keep up with the thread at all. I always seem to catch the end of what seems to be an interesting conversation, but it would take too long to go back to the beginning. :rotfl:

Just a quick question - is there anything I can attach to the seatbelt clip to stop my DD2 from unclipping her seatbelt - a cover of some kind so she couldn't press it? She has the ordinary seatbelt over her and is a bit of a pest with it tbh. I seem to remember a few years ago reading about a woman who had invented something like it to stop her children unfastening their seatbelts.

Off to do the dinner now before the evening rush of children's activities.

Couldn't get on internet this morning - apparently something was upsetting something and those with sky broadband were stuffed.

I don't do technical on Thursdays.

Antidepressants not working today, feeling more random than normal. Couldn't get at list so coincidentally played in the kitchen and planted some radish, spring onion and purple carrots. They should have been planted six weeks ago, but what the hell!

Hugs to all.
