Think after all my hard work I deserve a day out - Does anyone know if M&S sale is in shops or just online (need to replace grey bras with some white ones!)

(AND I need to get out before Mrs Pigpen wakens - then she might forget she is going to make me pay;))

Morning everyone.

Another fun day here. Pee'ing it down outside so the cat is in under my feet, and DS1 is shattered and being a pain. So far he has fallen over several times, leant on ds2 so hard he was sick, which went all over ds2, me and the settee - would not move so i could stand up as i was sat in it, so i ended up knocking him over, then when i went to change me and ds2 he followed me up the stairs and fell back down again, then while eating breakie, refused to sit at the dining table so i let him have it on the coffee table, but then wandered all over putting jammy handprints everywhere - all before 9am. Oh - and just remembered, also opened the WM drawer while the WM was filling, and water peed everywhere,

So, in terms of flying, i have:

• got myself and baby dressed x2
• fed ds2, made breakie for me and ds1
• washed us all and done teeth cleaning
• cleaned baby puke from between the seat cushions on the sofa,
• cleaned jam handprints up from all over
• wiped the kitchen benches that DH didn't do last night
• wiped jammy handprints and what looked like old yoghurt from the fridge and freezer doors
• cleaned up water that ran out the WM drawer
• washed one load of dark kiddies clothes, mostly from pukey boy number 2.
• changed nappies

not helped as i am shattered again as i was up to midnight and then the usual feeding through the night. The world is spinning a bit this morning - i feel really light headed.

Think it might be a day for taking it a bit easier.

nicki and lil-me well done for getting there with the assignments

mrs v well done with the house sale

morning waves to the rest of you. Seems strange that mostly it is the 6 week hols for you lot from today, as ours is on Tuesday - i have been invited to go in for the end of term do as it will be the last one ever in the current school building as the new building should be open for September.

Anyway, going to sit on the floor while ds1 plays bricks and hope the world stops whirling soon

lil_me

Have a lovely holiday Holly
Michelle ((hugs)) what a morning! Hopefully you'll manage to get a little rest when the boys sleep today, sounds like DS1 could do with one now.
Juliejim it's some time since the DSs have wet our bed, been banned since we got the new mattress but before that I used the Vax regularly to remove accidents, well we much as I could
Germ congratulations to your SIL and the rest of the family
Nicki wll done on getting that assignment done,
Craftyscholar you are mean, however he's always injuring himself doing something so shouldn't be too hard

It's absolutely pouring down, again! I am wondering if because of the weather it's actually worth even looking into going away next week Regardless I have a list of possible sites to phone round as I promised DP I would, most are very local which is what we agreed. I've got laundry on airers in the sitting room, another washer load in then another 2 or 3 I think to catch up. Dishwasher emptied.

Going to work on a list inc ringing the FF repair company, Beko was supposed to call them and arrange an appointment last week but I've heard nothing from them. Think I will see if I can wake DP now, we were supposed to be taking the stuff up to the caravan today which has been left at the house, can't see him wanting to in the rain however.

Your oven must be all clean anyways because I am sure you cleaned it before engineer arrived!

If you buy online, dont forget quidco. I love the ITec bras from La Senza, they have no seams and no labels:D And they are down from £22 each to £7.50

Yes Michelle I think it is - what a morning you have had, just admit defeat now and try to feel a bit better

DH got up - said he felt light headed - went to bathroom was sick and is now dying of some incurable virus in bed (or at least thats how he is acting) :rolleyes:
