Pleased to hear it Froddy

Think I should be doing a Valli as well seeing as I'm a very teeny bit older than her as well. Only 14 months mind.:D

Think that makes you the same age as me then

Very busy day at work then went straight to the cinema (free tickets so HAD to go!!!) Came home, washed up, wiped kitchen surfaces and now gonna head to bed. Too much chatting on this thread for me to catch up now :rolleyes:

Froddy and Tag ***blush*** I fibbed a wee bit lol - so maybe I am the older one! Note I didn't say more mature.

I have a great card that says

'Growing old is compulsory; growing up is optional!'

Sums me up perfectly

Evening ladies.

Been a long one in our house. DS2 had me up at 5:15am. Then i was dealing with 2 tired grumpy boys for most of the day.

Achievements in our house today have been minor:

• food shop done on my own with both boys
• put it all away
• menu planned for the rest of the month
• made a banana loaf in BM
• made and eaten fajhitas
• cleaned up hand cream DS1 squirted everywhere
• bathed both boys
• talked to neighbours - got back cat food and gave them a bunch of flowers
• talked to sister on phone to arrange me going through her essay with her and her babysitting for me while i go dentist
• packed baby bag for tomorrow
• finished reading library book
• ran steriliser and made bottles for tomorrow
• DH washed up after me as my hands are all cracked and bleeding :eek:

well done to mudders today, and laura, my nearest flylady neighbour - i am from Doncaster originally.

MACAW stuff - there is so much i could choose :rotfl: but i am doing what i can, and there is not time to think of one in particular to enhance. I know - make a list of all the things that need doing in the house this week so i can be organised. It will be mainly - DH needs to fix....

Night ladies, see you at a similar time tomorrow xx

Valli

I think I'm gonna sneak back and delete some posts - or maybe I should join the old stylers cos then I can play the naive innocent Valli over there!
Time to go! Gotta get settled! LOL


Going now am I...
