Nicki how come it's so cold in Liverpool?

No idea, I think its more a case of it being so damp and I've been busy on the computer so not moving around

Serena - I kept meaning to post this and kept forgetting - Glad your son is okay.

Next door has just been burning something in their yard (his little boys are staying so I can understand why they left it until late ) but its stunk my downstairs out :rolleyes: I'll have to be opening all the windows tomorrow to let the smell out.

I've made a start on decluttering the livingroom. and found some bits for DD Xmas hamper

I really need to get to bed. I need my sleep :wave:

Hi

I'm kind of in.

I have to sort the shed at Toddlers, after the horrible vandals wrecked it. A lot of the toys are no good due to being mouldy where the rains got in.:mad: The toys which can be cleaned have to be cleaned and the rest photographed and put back. The ones i wash then have to be found a home in the community hall. Not easy with a severe lack of storage space, i might have to take some home. I've spent 5and a half hrs there today and 3 yesterday and i'm not even 2/3 there yet. I need to hurry as we open again on the 3rd.

As well as that i'm trying to decorate Ds1's room before he gets home some time next week. I'm almost half way through that but can only do it in the evenings. I'm so stressed out it's unreal.:o Oh well it'll all be worth it in the end.:rolleyes:

So i'm in as much as i can be.

Thanks for the list Pigpen.

sorry to hear you're feeling so stressed hollyh
Hope it gets done ok and you don't suffer too much in the process.

**throws pigpen a lazy kitty biscuit fortified with catnip to see if that boosts her get up and go** (but realises pigpen's get up and go got up, threw a strop and left a long time ago )

hollyh what a job, hope you get it sorted, one of those things where it makes many of us wish we were closer to lend a hand.

Well all I have managed so far is making more mess, well between me and the dogs, dogs have knocked a bin over and chewed sticks up leaving the mess on the floor, I have made food & left everything out, I don't know why I am telling you instead of putting it away, seems silly doesn't it, but I am absolutely shattered. I will do it before bed, well I'll have to or it'll go nasty. Watching the closing ceremony rerun at the mo just to relax a bit, waiting to see Jimmy Page of course. Little Tom Daily should have carried our flag I think, just because of the courage which it must have taken for a little lad his age to go up and represent his country like that, oh well.

Thanks sinderella i'll get there in the end.

Morning ladies,

Can't believe I'm up at such an ungodly hour when it's a bank holiday. I've had a terrible night's sleep. Had a nightmare about my sister cos she's just moved out, and I dreamt it had all gone wrong and she'd had to come home. Woke up at 2.45am as a result. Scrubbed the toilet out (had left some vinegar and soda crystals in there to soak - not that it did much good), went back to bed, tossed and turned for a couple of hours and got up again at around 5 and fed the cat. I've tried to get back to sleep but ended up having a sneezing fit, and have had bad stomach ache and bloating (IBS) so have finally given up trying to sleep and come on here.

Can't really start on the list cos it's still fairly dark, so I'll just have to look around MSE forums til the alarm goes off at 6.45am when I'll make OH a cup of tea and me a redbush tea (I drink this too Rach).

Usually there'd be some of you mums with little ones up to chat to at this time in the morning, but I guess you're all tired out from entertaining them.

Will catch up with you all later and let you know how the carboot went.
Fingers crossed that it goes well.
