I've given myself a headache screaming at the kids so much - AF is due tomorrow!

Pink was on the facebook chat thread a few days ago - I've not been on there for a couple of days. I know she is back at work now, I'll pop onto facebook and leave her a message.

Flower - why oh why did i not know that? Mine is balanced on the fridge so is a very awkward height for scrubbing I know for next time though so Thankyou! It's going in my house hints book along with lots of other things i've found out on here :T

Hellsbells - I'll have one of those coffees! I'm on a diet and can't drink coffee without sugar so its off the menu at the minute. Can't get the hang of fruit tea so drinking hot water and lemon juice (read somewhere its good for getting rid of toxins) and its just not the same. I suppose I might treat myself to a coffee, shhh don't tell anyone.

Done the ironing (now there's just a mountain of clothes to be put away) and noticed that the condensation mould we have in the bedroom has just appeared in the living room. Its a patch about the size of a brick about 2/3 of the way from the windowsill to the skirting board. I'm hoping its something to do with the snow we had, any ideas anyone? I've cleaned it off with stardrops (thats what I do with the bathroom), but i'm worried about it coming back...

Thanks
xx

I wrote a post this morning but never did get to reading posts and I still haven't!

DD2 came round and used the computer, and had her dinner here and then we went shopping and I bought three pairs of curtains (from Shaws) and a big bag of books from The Works (some reduced to 49p). So I've just got back and now I really will try to catch up.

Oh, and I got the washing back in when we got home and five minutes later it started to rain, not like me to have good timing. It's hung round finishing off now but it did dry a bit.

Happy Birthday Nicki :bdaycake:

Mudbath

Can't remember if I came back to say list completed! When DH comes home i'm going to get him to vacuum upstairs for me.

I just need to make dumplings now to go with the stew and mash a few spuds.

:wave: pink fairy and jennybee if you're around xx

Glad to be of use...

OK, instead of S&Sing upstairs, just done downstairs instead as I have been doing all my paperwork in the front room and have just put it all away!!!:j so with the kitchen finished and the hall and living room looking all tidy (though needs a dust...:o ) I'm off to start on DS's room - he's due in any second and he can help...

See you later (if I make it out alive!)...

DD1's bedroom now in a reasonable condition considering I had a tantruming 2 year old in tow:rotfl:. Threw everything else in a box to sort through another day, (probably next week's kids room day).

Think we'll have spag bol for tea.

*toodles off to load TD again and do a bit of prep for tea.*
