Morning

Valli and Rebekah - you pair are MAD AS HATTERS :rotfl:

Soappie - Glad things are better this morning

nicki - hope you slept better, and the breathing things does work I use it on my DD when she cant sleep. Reading a slushy book helps as well as you get into the story and take your mind away from what you are thinking about.

Well its bright blue skies here this morning but they wont stay as its very wind so no doubt will change soon. Guess I better get a move on as I have loads to do and am at work this afternoon and still have all my work gear to wash and bedrooms to clean etc.

Might pop back in later but if not hope you all have a good day

Hi folks,


Havent been on for a few days, so the cleaning have fell by the wayside a little bit.
Today I have the house to myself, and already ive stripped my bed and DS1 bed (DS2 has just woken up), and have loaded some of the bedding into the WM.
Will really get stuck in. Started clearing out my wardrop on Friday, so, I plan to finish it today, (couldnt do it yesterday, as was out all day). Hopefully, if I get alot done today I can start afresh tomorrow.

Have a good day everyone.

Jackie

:rotfl: errrr - was it the 5 pages or so :rotfl:

Did you get see the message about meal planning or was it just too late at that stage to take it in

Well I'm having a :mad: morning. Got off to a fairly good start as stripped our bed and got some new bedding on except the quilt cover as quilt is over the banister airing. Just went to take OH a :coffee: thinking he was on the computer and he's gone to bed! Now I know he's just done a night shift, but usually when he's not on the next night as in tonight, he doesnt go to bed as he wont sleep tonight. Now I wouldnt normally mind but he couldnt be @rsed to even say anything and he's now tucked up in bed with the new quilt cover but no quilt, just too darn awkward to put it on :mad: . I just hope he's up before I need to get ready for work otherwise he'll have a rude awakening plus it also means I cant get on with the flinging I was sooo in the mood to do in our room today. That leaves me kids rooms to do - now DS room is not too bad and I can do that properly in 20 mins but DD who has already been asked by both of us to do hers is sat playing on the PS2 and I dont see why I should do it when she wont.
