Light fire
Change and dress baby
Give baby some milk
Give baby warm weetabix (not sure why I call her baby when she's 20 months now :eek:)
Empty dishwasher
Fill dishwasher and put on if possible
Empty washing machine
Fill washing machine and put it on
If I'm feeling inspired sort wet clothes and hang out or put in dryer

Ok not quite going the way I planned but I think maybe it's kinder to get the fire going properly before I get her changed.

Dont you hate it when things dont go according to plan?
Ordered hubby a nice jacket and hoody from M&M, only they sent different ones Phoned them up and apparently it is from a 'Lucky Dip' selection! Now it did say lucky dip in the title of the jacket, but i thought that was the name of the product, nowhere does it say they will send you something completely different! Bah!
Anyway, the stuff i ordered was nice:D

Morning all!
Rant alert

Kids didn't get me up until 8.30, which is fine but I actually like to have more of the morning to wake up in IYSWIM!
OH didn't get up for work, still ill apparently but I'm still annoyed he didn't get up in time, it would be better to get up and go to work then come home ill than not to bother getting up at all. He slept half the evening then was up til 5am so I'm thinking some of it is his fault :mad: It's a long day today so a full £80 we'll be losing.
I know I shouldn't be cross with him for being ill but in the last few weeks he has had so many days off and several were for hangovers :eek: so if he hadn't had those off I wouldn't be so cross about him being actually ill.
I know he really didn't want to work over the festive period but when you're Self Employed, no one pays you to have a holiday :rolleyes:
So, so far this week earnings are a grand total of £30 and last week was £90.
My budget and savings plans are suffering, will now have to go work out if we can possibly survive on such little money.
I often think I would be better off financially as a single mum :rolleyes:

I'm just off again to finish this dishwasher. Then I think I need to find some food as my tummy is rumbling at me. Toast I think with melted butter...mmmmm!
