It really is ironing day today...:eek:
All presents wrapped
Started sorting clothes for Adelaide
Changed DS's bed
S&S Kitchen and dowstairs loo.
Storage stuff being picked up at 2pm:T :T then I can vacuum upstairs.
Reported DS's air-conditioning unit not working, may not be done till after christmas now but he can sleep in the spare room if necessary.
Hmm - what shall I do for supper? will go and rummage.

Triker I hope you all have an amazing holiday and DH isn't too sore, Happy Christmas xxx
Mudbath that's a long time in Tesco, hope he's not being hassled by old ladies getting him to pass them things off high shelves (which is what happens to mine) Yes, get those ABs sorted asap! I am naughty, when the GP gives me them and I don't think I need them I stash them for if I do.
Pigpen honey, usually sooty stuff goes within 48 hours so fingers crossed it's not tonsils giving you grief again (but it is going round) Forgot to mention I did call Metro Centre shop and they didn't have kittens in bags either
Well all shopping apart from bottles (which I need to make a space for when clearing tomorrow) is away. I didn't realise just how many 'biscuits for cheese' DS2 had threw in the trolley, 5 packs! He's a cheese junky, I did get asked if I was buying cheese for a family of giant mice!
DS2 seems to have settled tonight, I am going to have to get him a tag rag or something I think, his twiddling with his/other peoples/dogs ears is getting worse but worse still he's now putting everything in his mouth, inc the poor dogs ears, licking them, urgh!
DP when I said I had a lot to do tomorrow said he'll take the kids out, I did want him to offer to help but better than nothing and I will get more done with them out of my hair. I did point out he needs to be in for parcelswhen I need to do the other shopping.
!!!!!!, all the presents for DPs family are still on my bed, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I want to just goto bed. Think I'll just throw them on the floor and wrap them tomorrow
Goodnight xxxxOne day I might be more organised...........
