    If you remember i did this in the summer, the kids wouldn't tidy their room and said they didn't want their toys anymore. Every toy was taken out to the shed and still hasn't come back into the house.:eek: They got their bits for their birthday and christmas but they still don't want their toys back (weird stuborn children). I thought they would have gave in after a week but nope, my plan backfired big time.:rolleyes:

    I can see this happening here - she complains she's bored now but doesn't really bother with her toys - I think sometimes there can be too many and it overfaces them! The ionly thing she really bothers about is her dolls so that might be the only issue.

    Lady liberty - some friends bought me a bell for after my op. The problem is I only used it once as for some reason when I rang it I found it hilariously funny and couldn't stop laughing which really hurt!!! Hope you've had a nice breakfast.

    Hi Mudbath think I will just resort to shouting at him, he is used to that :rotfl: bless him, we went to the hospital today, just so he can check where I am going :confused:

    Breakfast was nice, made me a bit sad to think it would be a while before I can do it again though.

    Glad you enjoyed last night......rest now xx

    In my HHC I:

    Took dry clothes off rads
    Emptied WM and split between TD and rads
    Loaded WM again
    Washed dishes

    Not as well as you Froddy!

    Still a few more dishes to do but my drainer is full.

    Vanilla - how old are your LOs now?

    I agree too many toys, i've a shed full which i really should go through but think i'll hold on to for the baby.:rotfl: I'm a hoarder(sp) really. I know if i brought them in now they would look at them for two minutes and then forget about them and go back to their other stuff.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Soappie - you could say that buster was essential for the 'national presense of squirrel's in semi urban gardens audit' that the police commisioned for the financial year 2007-2008. Under clause 6 you got extra points if it was a fly lady sized squirrel clutching a bottle of wine.
    Dusty - ouch about the toe.

    I'm just going out to sort the bins ready for recyling day tomorrow! See you later xx

    I'll join you - I need to go out and check the car as it's getting dark here already, and I'll do the bathroom bits.

    I'm abandoning the rest of the front room - it's going to have to wait until half term to get decluttered!
