    Morning ladies.

    It is fairly grey and muggy here - i have been brave and pegged some stuff out, but it is looking ominous. Good excuse to sit on the computer while ds's both otherwise occupied and check if it is raining at the same time.

    DH left early for work, and won't be back till late, so just me and the boys today. I have so little patience and energy it is untrue, so will see what i can muster up. I have quick meals planned, and i want to conserve a bit of energy for doing room sorting while the boys sleep tonight. Mainly dailies so far.

    I've:
    • got ds1 and 2 up and dressed, had to dress myself twice after ds2 wee'd on my jeans
    • made breakie for me and ds1
    • fed ds2 for 30 mins - he's just about due again
    • washed swimming towels and stuff from yesterday - that has been pegged out now in TD as the rain arrived
    • ds2 had a nappy leak, so had to change his clothes again, changed ds1's nappy at same time - they are becoming synchronised :confused:
    • got ds2 to sleep
    • took ds1 to wash/clean teeth
    • picked up rubbish in bathroom - dirty clothes/old loo roll middles and nappies from this morning and brought them down as DH didn't replace the bin bag in the bathroom
    • last nights washing up away
    • researched a soft play sister suggested going to next monday
    • fed both cats
    • made ds1 a drink and snack while he watches ITNG
    mudbath hope that finger is less sore today. your poor limb has taken some abuse this year

    Morning all. My mum has said she'll pick my two up at 11.30 and bring them back about 5 so I can go and get re-popped and then [STRIKE]put my feet up and read etc [/STRIKE] do all my lists for the whole week :D .

    I've just checked my quidco and it says I have to put in bacs details as i've gone over the limit for paypal - anyone else had this? xx

    HHC finished early as it's very difficult to clean a small bathroom that has 2 toddlers in it who are taking all the bottles off the shelves and spilling their potty full of wee all over the floor!

    List now looks like

    Thursday Thrills- Bathroom and Study/Pc Area
    Level One
    Clean floors in these rooms no point as DS1 keeps spilling wee on it
    Level Two
    [strike]Clean baths, toilets, don't forget the outside! and sinks.. shine the taps with a toothbrush[/strike]
    [strike]Clear any clutter from desk[/strike]
    [strike]Dust PC and desk and wipe off those cup rings!![/strike]
    [strike] Take all bottles off shelves, wipe bottles and shelves and replace.[/strike]
    Wipe keyboard, house phone, sockets, switches and mouse etc
    Level Three
    [strike]Wash your bathroom mats, nets, clean blind/curtains etc[/strike]
    Wipe down tiles in bathroom.. defragment your pc while doing this.
    Empty and clean out all the upstairs bins!
    Clean shower screen/curtain if you have one/if required
    Collect all the dirty laundry

    Not too bad for 20 minutes work with 2 toddlers "helping"

    Cleaned the stairs
    Cleaned the landing
    Cleaned DS room
    Cleaned DD room
    Cleaned the kids bathroom
    Cleaned master bedroom

    heatherbelle you can only do what you can do... that's in the rules!! :D so don't give yourself a hard time

    kazwookie good for you on the de-clutter!

    mumofjusttwo hugs to you and yours, and I hope things get a bit better soon.

    I started the day being jolted out of sleep by my DD3. (she of the downs and ADHD) telling me she has spots on her face.... When I looked she has a really strange rash :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    I am not a panicky Mum at all, but this was pretty scary.... long story short... whizzed to Docs, my poor baby has got SHINGLES :eek: :eek:
    :(:(

    So fed up now. My poor girl, she has so much to cope with... it's just not bl**dy fair.

    ((HUGS)) to Sarahshattered and her poor DD, hope she feels better soon, Shingles is horrible.


    While cleaning the bathroom I notices wierd stains on the wooden toilet seat cover, like someone has spilled bleach on it. This wasn't me and I think it may have been OH's heavy duty hand cleaner. Thing is, we rent this house and I don't want to damage it, anyone know if it's possible to re-varnish it??
