Morning all, i'm in with bells on. My flat is currently a hovel after a week of hubby being off work:rolleyes: He is off today too but i am heartily sick off it so am going to bash on.

Kazwookie - Big hugs today, hope it goes as well as it can. Thinking of you.
Flybabybunting - your memory is almost correct, pigpen has 8 kids;)

Just finishing off breakfast then will look at the list.

Goodmorning ladies (I'm so sterotypical and assume everyone on here are women) so goodmorning to any flymen out there!

Thankyou for all your support and positive comments this morning, I'm feeling a lot better this morning and will definately try to do to level 3 in the Kitchen as it really needs it, the dining room we don't tend to use much so will do a Level 1 in there.
Anyideas on how to get all the horrible brown burn marks off the inside of the oven door? Do I need to buy a special oven cleaner?

Right plan for today
Get self showered and dressed
Get kids dressed and fed
Breakfast
Swish/Swipe and make beds
Floordrobe - has to be done on a daily basis, mostly needs to be picked up and taken to the laundry basket!
Then Tescos to get some cleaning products:
Scrubbing brush
Soda Crystals
Cloths
Washing up Bowl
Then home to tackle my list!

Right DS1 wants ice-cream for breakfast!

C ya later XxX

Please don't talk about bells. I bought DD a belly dancing dressing up outfit yesterday at a booty for £1.50. She's worn it continually since and the jiggling is now driving me potty.:mad:

Ah. Out of breath now.
Dressed self and DD2 (DD1 still potty training so it's ok that he's running around the garden in his PJ top.
Washed up, WM on
Swept LR and Kitchen floor

Danced around violently to "the boys are back in town" in the vain hope of burning off calories consumed by having biscuits for breakfast!

Off to hang out washing, get OH up and make coffee.

Morning all

Nicki - have you seen the preparing for winter thread?

Vali - no last week's thread was not the longest - I think one hit 100 pages

Michelle - DS2 hated being in the car when a baby too - I can remember a holiday to Jersey when he was about 6 months old and he cried everytime we put him in the car - good luck

Kazwookie - I hope your flowers turned out just as you wanted, hugs to you and all those feeling the loss of your mum today

Denise I hope it has stopped raining

Soappie we had a candle lit at dinner last night as it was so dim in the kitchen at 6:30 the kids stared talking about christmas!

Crafty can you use Energy saving bulbs with your timer?

Embb missed you hun. I love BB too (but don't tell this lot) what do you think of Rex's GF?

Ragz - I hope your inlaws 'like you just the way you are' and not because you can clean.

To the shower and then the town with DS2and3 for shoe measuring and optitions.
