    Have found the stuff DS wore for footy training on Thursday in a bag in his room. Top, shorts, socks and trousers. Also shin pads. Damp and smelly.

    Have left the bag in his room.

    He will be cross on Thursday - because that's when he will look for footy training stuff - although he might find it tomorrow when he preps for the match.

    Whatever happens no washing will be done until Weds night after tonights white load.

    He'll learn!

    Anyone up for another HHC?

    I'll continue in the bedroom now I promise.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

  • Just popped in to update my siggie as I've been to Mr T with a NOTW voucher! yay!
    Had a busy morning, DW, WM x 2 and on the line! hurrah for the sun! found printer installation disc, uninstalled and re-installed printer, mended space bar on keyboard so I don't have to thump it to get a space - too many crumbs!!!
    Took DS to guitar and footie, DD suddnely remembered we had to go to the library to get her medal for the summer reading scheme - 10 minutes before closing - grr! Been to Next to get DS a belt - long legs and wide waist but trousers are never just right so loose waist although legs are right!! But at the rate he grows we'll be ok in a few weeks!
    Shopping away and a cuppa made - need a little rest now - AF came today so feeling a bit off - first one for a couple of months - getting to "that" age I guess!!
    Might just have a quick hoover around as I need to do DS's mattress before remaking the bed. The kids are beginning to understand about the flying and now know that muddy footprints in the kitchen need to be wiped - by them! and if I say put away that's what I mean not just stuffed in a corner where they think I cna't see.

    Well must hop off and put a meal plan in on the other thread - this really is working for me - just a bit worried about the waistline as I'm making so much more when I've got the oven on for meals - can't use a SC - my kids don't like sloppy food so tend to cook an oven meal instead.

    Have a good weekend all!
