  • Can you put me down for this. I have done the bathroom 1,2 and 3 this morning. Also done the kids bedrooms and landing. Will be doing extras this afternoon. My macaw is to read one book a week for a year.

    OH is really getting under my feet! GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
    He's been sitting around in his Long Johns and dressing gown, reading a book all morning and now I want to use the kitchen he's decided he needs to cook his breakfast first... and is moaning that I'm getting in his way!
    AAAAARGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH
    I hate it when he's not at work, the stress of knowing that we'll have less money this week coupled with him being around in general is enough to drive me crazy.........
    But he did play with the kids while I cleaned the bathroom...

    Sorry, ranting over (for now)
