    soappie yes, I always ask if he's forgot where the DW is as he doesn't put anything in it, his dinner plate if he moves it, he dumps on the bench.....annoying isn't it. There is I think 2 cereal bowls next to his bed, been there over a week, yuk. Toots you're probably right, but he's like his Mum when it comes to the world revolving around him sometimes. Then moans when the kids won't help, as I just said, what role model do they have? They ask me for food/drinks/clean stuff because it's just me who does it, so they just expect it from me.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    lil_me - hugs to you - that's just not fair.
    Rach - glad to be of assistance in the gift giving department . . . ;)

    Got up early this morning to get stuff done before going in to work - have done one load of washing and that's about it LOL. Never mind.

    Clean up at job no. 1 this morning then quick trip to the pub. Then on to my last night at job no. 3. Yay!! Have tomorrow off to catch up with 'stuff'.

    Am leaving the kids to wash walls in hallway today. That should look interesting by the time I come home :rolleyes:

    Need to make up beds for the kids coming home for Christmas, too!

    Have a good night, everyone.

    Lil_me - hugs to you. I'd be tempted to not answer the phone next time he 'needs' something he's forgotton/needs when he's out for the day. Either that or bargain with him there and then...well, i'll do that but what are you going to do for me? I know it's not easy. My DH can be as selfish as the rest - it normally takes me having a complete freak out for him to help (either that or a hysterectomy but I wouldn't recommend that!!). Hugs again xx

    soappie love your logic with the champers.....LOL - enjoy it!

    ditto that - I mean - you'd be gutted of you saved it for xmas and it was carp...and if it's REALLY good you have time to get some more. Wasn't impressed with the Chablis reduced to £5.97 BTW if anyone's wondering - and Chablis is my favourite white when I'm feeling flush.
