Evening ladies, I'm along for the ride and the natter. Finding flying/heat/kids home really do not mix.
Tootie and SSL good luck with your interviews tomorrow.
DS1 at cricket about 30 minutes away tomorrow so not sure whether I will stay up there with DS3 or come home and go back again - I'll see how hot it is and if there is any shade to be had.
Off to bed now. Kids still awake and winding each other up - they have a room each so why do they need to keep visiting each others rooms and causing a scene I really do not know - no tv tomorrow morning for any of them.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Am in again - am trying to keep up although only manage about 3 days at the moment. Builders are severely scuppering my plans as we are not only boarded into the bedroom but now in the lounge as well! Still at least no windows to clean!

SSL Good luck with your interview, hope you get the job.
Well after my weekend off I am more than ready to do some serious flying, the house is looking like a launderette exploded in it as I have about 4 loads of washing to put away. Living room is definitely the most dire one so good timing.
Just realised, are the rooms we do in the same order each week, is the list the same apart from the extras? Sorry if I'm being really thick!June Grocery Challenge £493.33/£500 July £/£500

I'm in again - just checked the weather for the next week and its going to get wet later in the week apparently so I'm going to stop in and get the last couple of loads of washing done (pinks, towels & cloths) and clean through. DD is in an awful "I've been away, got spoilt, I'm hot, tired and missing my daddy" mood so she can veg out on the sofa for the dayAs long as its not too hot (Ha! Forcast is 26c :eek: ) I'll have a go at doing all the cleaning for the week...but we'll see.

Hope everyones ok.
Good luck SSL for your interview.

Morning All
Kids are going to my friend's house for a bit today so I want to get stuck in and get some stuff done. DH is out from tomorrow until late Thursday night and isn't sure whether he'll get home tonight although he's going to try as he hasn't sorted out his stuff for the holiday yet.
Hope everyone has a good day
Hugs
