Thanks Mumoffour! We did have a great time, safari park Saturday, meal Saturday night (half the food didn't turn up though and what did was not very good, ended up getting a refund) then down the beach park and ran wild with kids. Sunday picnic with friend who I havent seen in ages (speak on phone and text but it's not the same is it?) Had a feeling before we out that friend would announce she was pregnant.... and she did! :j Yeah! Another baby! And I admit, I got weepy cos I can't have any more.

Plus, mumoffour, it's kitchen day today, so all you should be doing is putting the rioning away, your kitchen, utility and dining room if you have one. You will put the rest of us to shame!

Rach, I am jelous! I don't get time alone often enough to have a coffee and a read. It's costa here and my fave is in Waterstones, so I buy a book, then a coffee and sit on a big squishy leather chair, bliss.

Piggers, you talking about the free laptop from AOL? Is it worth it? Been thinking about it on and off, but I'm with AOl at the moment so don't know if I would get it now anyway.

OK, to enegise myself with positive house cleaning vibes I S&S the kids room cos it's still lovely and clean and tidy. Made beds, picked up a few toys etc. Then folded and sorted and put away a load of washing, bathed DS2 (DS1 refused), bought a replacement shell for DS1's DS as he snapped the hinge (not entirely his fault), left feedback for pretty beady stuff (got lovely watchface to make my mummy a necklace watch for her work), faffed about etc.

Now to make :coffee: and hang up kids stuff in their wardrobe now that DH has put in the pole! (only had the wardrobe almost a year like) t do list I guess...

Hang up kids stuff
S&S bathroom
Sort DS2's toilet training star chart
Tidy living room
Hoover through
Kitchen
Phone AOL about crappy conection :mad:
Collect my little bro's old xbox that had ring of death and get it repaired for free then sell it and buy a laptop (my bro just bought a new one, rich git that he is)
Chase up DH xbox that had ring of death (tracker says it has been delivered, it hasn't)
Collect, fill out and return forms for DS1 childcare

and feed kids I suppose

made some good progress on my list on HHC, now have wet knees on my jeans though from the floor. really should invest in a mop, just the usual storage probs. plan now is to head to town so I can shop and cook when I get back. and sort the insurance, promised DH i'd do it today!

tia - yeah i do it so rarely these days though DH and I do go for coffee some weekends. its expensive so and as we're trying to save up its a treat but i did tell DH to treat himself to coffee & croissant on the way to work this morning as its his bday.

i am really enjoying my day at home, wish i didn't have to sort the insurance though, hate that job but DH does everything else to do with finances etc so i can't complain and he's studying at the moment in every spare second!

I just discovered a HUGE bruise on my arm... OUCH!!!!!!!!! Not a clue how I came by that one..

You don't remember saturday night then? Triker might remind you!

Tiamai_d - I hope you don't mind me asking. Was it expensive to get your xbox fixed? We have the 'ring of death' now and DS11 is lost without it!
