Awwwww thanks everyone for the hugs and stuff, lol @ G&B re: she'll go smelly I'm going to give her a rub to see if she comes round, but if she has staring eyes when I pick her up I'll know she's proper gonna she's all curled up so can't see her.....Off I go....

Rucksack looks ok thanks rach, i washed it on a cold wash as i thought it would be better.

On my HHC i:
Scrubbed my sink and hob using JML spotless - is amazing stuff
Stripped LO's bedding and washed it
Did some ironing
S&S'd the kitchen - wonder how many times i do that every day:rolleyes:

I am even more proud (and Jealous) of you all than I was before!!

I hardly have time for housework and getting myself organised and I only have one!!! And he is 7, so not even so little anymore!!

I thought the D was for Darling, but I guess it would depend on the mood your in - he is not always my Darling Son!!! lol


Good luck with the hamster btw. I dont know anything about animals but my brother kept hamsters when we were kids and I remember that happened to one of his. We sat the cage in front of the fire and he was running around like no-one business half an hour later!!

Is it normal for a 41 year to sob over a dead Hamster I just saw her little face and burst into tears she's all squished and stuff where she's been lying poor littley, her best friend is moving to another school today too so she's not having a good one

I'm not having any more pets!

rach

hugs embb I'd probably cry too

DH has just msn'd me and suggested taking me for lunch at starbucks to get me out for a bit (his half day today), so am off for a bath or shower and to get dressed. I'll then empty the bins to take out when I go.

aw embb hugs and er - yes perfectly normal to weep - remember me sobbing at the vets in the summer over my son's dead gerbil - and later when DDs went to the great gerbilarium in the sky?...
but it's part of life's rich tapestry and the cycle of life - we love them and we weep when we lose them - your DD is learning one of life's less pleasant lessons...

Afternoon

One load of washing out on the line, sulking.

Bathroom and toilet thoroughly cleaned. I've done everything as far as I can tell.

Also had to dust upstairs again and re-vacuum back bedroom after last door was fitted last night. I'm sure the dust was resettling as I went even though I used a damp cloth too.

I'm doing lots of cleaning but I'm finding it very hard to carry on, it never feels like I've done anything and nobody notices what I do. I used to do it for myself but I'm not sure I care any more.
