THAT'S WHY LISA SHOULD HAVE WON!!! Sorry but WOW! That was stunning. Don't think Rachel quite has it to be honest, stumbly, think Tom will win now....well should anyway. (admits I watched before but interest dwindled when Austin left ) See how his Freestyle goes before I choose.

Night night Dusty x I'm another short attention span person too, I'm terrible in the cinema. Theatre I am better, depending what it is.

Johanne I think you would maybe find putting some sort of routine in easier, she seems a little confused as to what she's supposed to be doing and when, it's not always the easiest time when you do it while they are teething however. There is always some things which can stay pretty routine even if the person changes etc, looking at your day and working what you could sort of stick to would likely be easier.

Boys are helping weigh card parcels as they are checked off for me to save time at PO even if I don't get it done online. Cheking it 3 times of course!

Even Santa only checks twice!

I don't do it often.. but today I have been very busy so it was a good job really!

Delayed shock d'you think - or stress? TBH I'd be more surprised if she wasn't shocked or stressed...mind you she can't be TOO bad - she's gone off me :rotfl::rotfl:

No, just feeling crappy.. I only ever sleep when I am ill.. then I can't be woken up!!

I admired the turkey crowns in Morrisons, then realised for the same money I could have a 9kg frozen turkey. Seemed daft so I lugged the monster home. It occurred to me at 3am this morning that the door mounted roasting tray of my oven will not support the weight, and I have just checked and it won't fit my roasting trays either so I can't put it in the (narrow) side oven. Need to find the Rangemaster instructions and see how to take the door mount off, and need to buy a roasting tin from somewhere pronto - and I thought I had finished my shopping. I know this is nothing to your concerns Pigpen but I am fretting now .

Have you TRIED it on the door mounted tray? Those guidelines are exactly that.. guidelines.. because they KNOW if they say 5kg someone WILL put a 15KG gobbler on it so they make them substantial enough to hold 10kg... hornets.. I sat on one in comet the other day.. just cheking.. and I only weigh 2KG and it never fell off!

pigpen - have you tried phoning some of the stores and see if they can send it to you ??
toots xx

The store here phoned some of th emore local ones.. but I think they've already been checked anyway.. they are holding one for us if they get any in on their monday delivery.. failing that my mother will have to think of something else!

:rotfl:Yes pigpen santa might only check twice but I have naughty little helpers and iffy scales not useful elves and toyland scales! DS1 does this when excited :j:j as you know, well when the numbers were coming up (we put the scales on the floor so it was easier to see) he got all excited and couldn't understand why the numbers were changing :rolleyes: With the pressie, if it's not on the reorder list (which toots I think it was mentioned) I think it might be a discontinued line for next year (friend used to work for them so asked her) so if there is one in a shop, that will likely be the only option. I'm at the Metro Monday so will check there then, I'm Middlesbrough way on Wednesday so can check there too.

:T:T:T:T:T:TTOM HAS TO WIN - the kids loved that performance!

Today I have cleaned out 3 of my sooty kitchen cupboards and my sooty smelly fridge. I have to do the larder unit tomorrow or else I'll have nowhere to put my food delivery tomorrow evening (7-9 slot)
I washed my bed sheets and DD3's as she has wee'd alarming amount again.. I also forced her to put on her nappy tonight and supervised.. she has been saying she has one on and not wearing one since the stupid nurse at pi$$y clinic said she was 'too big' to wear one... GGGrrrrrrr.. I've had words about that! I will also be checking when I go up that she still has it on.
DD5 has a duvet cover on! .. I am not good at wahsing them and putting them back on!
I've washed some of the marks off the mattress.. I am sure some of them are cat drool... and I MUST get a new mattress protector!
6 loads of washing 5 in the dryer.. one on the airer..
4 lots folded and put away

I sorted DD3's birthday party and have that to clear away

The DW has been on 4 times already washing the sooty pots and stuff AND......

I washed the kitchen floor... and... even more dramatic...

I ironed some of hubby's shirts.. I made him iron some too... I did 4 to his 1.. lol... he ain't quick!!!!

the 3 little ones are also bathed and DD2 has had her hair washed.. she likes to do it now she is 11 but never does it good enough.. so I scrubbed her.

Oh... and I cleaned out the bunnies... still need to do fishy... I have new gravel for him though... .. that is his christmas gift.

I need to speak to DS1.. urgently...

Hubby has gone to his salsa class christmas party tonight.. so I am left wrapping.. and remaking the bed.

My sister is scared of bunnies so when she came round earlier I had her feed them a carrot each.. they run round and round the cage like loonies.. just to give her colly-wobbles of course.. I am such a nice sister!

Right.. I need to collect laundry.. bung WM's on and TD's.. and the DW... then I can start on the wrapping!!

Mudbath

I've never seen strictly before and don't know any of them. I want Rachel to win because Camilla is possibly the most annoying thing i've seen on TV this year!!!! xx

pigpen

and no Triker.. is she stuck in the library? Or locked in Home Bargains??

Or in your kitchen with her finger stuck on the ignition button? xx

lil_me

Pigpen do you need one of those mattress protectors? I can pick you up one when the centres reopen after Chrimo/New Year. :rotfl: @ you spooking your sister, you mean person. My WMs and TD is on full tilt too. I also have DS2 refusing his nappies because of p woman, but at the minute I just could do with less laundry no matter if they think it helps (I don't think it does!)

I'm not keen on Camilla either but Tom's better than Rachel IMO I miss dancing. I've even got medals somewhere from when I was a kid, maybe that's a new lifestyle incentive, loose the 8 stone I need to loose and go back to dancing.

I was wondering where Triker is and if her hubby is ok

I have a puppy!!!!!!
DP went to the kennels today while I was at work and got me a puppy, he is absolutely gorgeous.


WOOOHOOOO I am soooo happy
