    Why didn't anyone remind me I'd got to sort out my Tesco Clubcard deals out?

    Going to have a quick look now and then do a HHI at 4.15 while watching Star Wars!

    Hey fellow flyers lol

    Sounds like you all have had productive days, I only wish I could say the same for me. Well it appears that my night of comfort food has a nasty way of telling me off and I have spent the day very ill on the couch. My poor body can no longer cope with high fats and makes sure that it evits all evil fat through a very small hole :rotfl::rotfl: sorry trying not to be too graffic here.:eek:

    Well I have a lot to do in my house, I have 2 days before I go into hospital and I have about a month work to do, arghhhhhhhhhhhh. I am hoping and praying that my bed is still waiting for me when I phone on Wednesday.


    Busy Week 01/12/2008 :eek:

    1. Living room, ermmmmmmmmmmmm look like a tip so need to run around and blitz it all. Should only take about 30 mins or so as it was only done last week.
    2. Kitchen, ok washing up loads to do in here. It appears the cups in this house dnt get washed lol. Need to clear the table and put the washing away. Need to wash all sides and mop the floors.
    3. Hall ways, need to clear the stairs and make sure that things are in their place. Mop the hall way floor and hoover stairs.
    4. Downstairs bog :rotfl:I hate this room and I mean detest it. Just have a wipe around in here and mop the floor.
    5. Bedrooms, mine and DD's complete tidy and over haul and big bag dance. Needs hoover, dusting and aring. My room OMG I cnt see the floor so this needs to chance and the bed needs making.
    6. Up stairs bathroom, is actually not that bad. Just tidy round and bin emptys and mop floor thats it.
    Not that much really, should not take me that long, *Pig flies past the window, followed by a farm lol*

    Afternoon everyone, have loads to do here but can't be bothered. Might go for a nap for an hour and see if it lifts me any.

    Things to do
    • Find all uniforms and wash and dry.
    • Find school bags and PE kits.
    • Sort money for homework club tomorrow.
    • Wash the dishes.
    • Bath all kiddies plus cut their hair.
    • Start my coursework that needs to be finished by tomorrow.:eek:
    • Do a HHC in our room so that i can actually walk round the room.
    • Sort my clothes out for tomorrow.
    • Find library books that need to go back as well as glasses to be fixed.
    • Sort out hubby's b'day present for wednesday.
    Think thats it for now.

    Johanne big hugs.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    well done julie!
    I am done here for today, nipped out for an hour at lunch time whilst DH pulled everything out on the landing and washed all the floors down. As well as the list today I also managed to hoover & wipe the lounge so everyhing is ok now. Will try and do the lists during the week but i'm off work friday and we have DH's bro and sis and their spouses for dinner friday night so I'll need to make sure it's all spick and span then. DH is just doing a bit of study for the next lot of exams then he's cooking dinner. Don't think we'll go anywhere tonight, it hasn't stopped being grey here today and we've had the light on all day so I just feel like hibernating!

    top up shop
    bathroom - loo, sink, bath, tiles, shelf, floor
    bedroom - hoover, make bed, move laundry, get DH to move his books

    wm x 3 (1) (2) (3)
    repot parsley
    S&S kitchen
    sweep kitchen floor

    empty bag from trip away
    take 2 carrier bags to charity shop bin[/quote]

    lol sorry, I obviously missed that bit - not read much of the thread this last week! I got the pizza express ones recently.

    I REALLY want some chocolate now i've seen that santa. And we don't have any here....I wonder if a dark chocolate jaffa cake will satisfy the craving?!

    Somesone seems to have shot a rocket up a few our bottoms today. Well done everyone!

    I've been swiping things off my list too, did about an hour if you take out making snack etc for the kids.

    juliejim sorry I must have missed that, have you found anything nice? I am storing mine for the OU ones. Not that I know where I have hidden half of them. Thanks for the Star Wars reminder, kids have got it Sky+d now because I will need to vacuum while it's on which means they will have to go upstairs.

    Rach, with you on the could do with chocolate and no, I think that would make it worse.......I can't even call DP to get him to bring some home as he's left his phone here, probably deliberately so I can't call to ask at which hour he might return....

    Right, coffee, anyone? Then I must do another HHC about 4.45pm to 5.15pm before dinner see if I can get some more of that list rattled off. Oh and DS2 thinks I have a monster in my tummy because of the noises it's making :rotfl: Think I should put the heating on ready for bath time, have had it off all day to motivate me into keeping moving (minus something silly here all day)
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Well that was embarrassing! I've actually ventured underneath my bed this afternoon. My bed is against a wall and to move it, requires moving other pieces of furniture first (my bedroom is tiny - it's the garage!). So it doesn't often get done. There was half a springer spaniel under there in hair! Plus 6700 shredded tissues and assorted pieces of paper! I had to empty the Dyson cylinder twice! :o But it's sparkling under there now and I've turned the mattress. Just having a five minute recovery sit down before I Dyson the rest of it.
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
