    I've just picked up a large shaker of glitter and the kids had taken the lid off and not put it back on properly - most of it is now all over the floor.:mad:

    At least you can say your kitchen is sparkling:D:rotfl:

    I'm off to Asda before juliejim shouts at me:wave:

    Morning everyone,

    I'm struggling to get unpacking/washing done after our hols, but yesterday I got the kids to agree to do one job each day off the lists to help and they would get a little reward ;)They tried to convince me that flinging open the windows was one job :rotfl:

    Have a good day

    Well you have to give 'em credit for initiative:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    I've been AWOL for a few days.... but I can now say that... we own a sandwich shop! :j Went into town yesterday to do the deal and I only spent a few grand! :rotfl: Excluding the shop, I spent nothing! Was in for hours and I didn't even manage to get to Boots or nowt! *wails*

    There was some drama... and it is now closed till 25th August. We get the keys Saturday night so will be starting cleaning, re furbishing and paining om Sunday. This is FLYing on an industrial scale, the place is FILTHY! It is disgusting. The white floor is grey/black! The celing is brown, the white tiles are brown... there is mess and clutter everywhere and yet empty shelves! :eek: I shall take some before and after pics for you guys, I know you like them!

    So, this moring I have...

    Made more calls that I can count
    Arranged call backs from reps for a drinks chiller and a coffee machine
    S&S bathroom
    Hoovered and mopped floors downstairs
    WM unloaded
    Grotty protective sheets in WM with stardrops and cloths

    Also, DS2 is ill with a cold, he is pale with red eyes, cranky and coughing. But went for a nap at 10.30 and still not awake yet. I will let him sleep as much as he wants as he needs it. He has his induction for nursery tomorrow so has to get well!

    To catch up on the lists, I'm going to list what I need to do today as I will be out Tomorrow.

    Breakfast dishes
    Lunch
    Clean out hoover
    Hoover and S&S kids room
    WM, TD/dry, HHI and putting clothes away
    Change my bed
    Clean glass doors
    Hoover stairs
    Clean oven and hob
    Go to tip (will do that tomorrow as Asda is close by)

    Ok, start with a pee I guess!
