    Morning All.

    Mo5- Wow. agree better to know now about the father than in 4 months time. Hope your DD is doing ok.
    Emily.-hugs. Have to agree that cOmic Relief to expect you to be able to turn o your emotions as soon as they stop filming. Watch it while Mr Tennant was on then turned it over. Didn't want to go to bed/90 upset.

    Well DH is picking up DS at 4 or 5 today but DS is already asking me if it is 4 o'clock yet. Think I may have a long day :D
    I am feeling really tired today as DD keeps waking at 5.30, but shouldn't complain I went to sleep at 9.40. Wow I have really exciting Friday nights :D:D

    Must get on a do something. Done DS bed seeing as it will be empty :D and got a load in the WM and sorted out DS suitcase and arrange to go out for a Pizza tonight. Haven't been for ages and fancied a treat. I have been doing really well on my Grocery challenge. I think.

  • Morning All, sat here at work bored stupid, though only working till 1 so not too bad.

    Have tried to catch up on thread but am useless at rememebering things (OLDTIMERS!) so hugs to all who need them.

    SS the kitchen before work, wm on and clothes now out on the line, though the sun has gone but still a bit blowy. Aired bedroom and made bed, got ready for work and that's about it.

    House though is still looking ok even though have only managed level 1 mostly for the last couple of weeks. Need a big kick up the you know what to try and motivate myself even though the elbow malarky is still causing problems- roll on the lovely weather. On a plus side I have kept up with the ironing on a monday morning before work so only have THREE things in the basket at the moment- way hey!!

    Morning everyone... woke up ages ago, but didn't bother to get up :o

    Windows are open (house smells of grout/linseed oil/turps), first load of washing is on the new line, WM is full again, DW is half empty, loo is marinating and I've had breakfast.

    Once I've got myself washed and dressed, the plan is to get the utility room thoroughly cleaned so that I can use it properly, then do as much of the lists and laundry as I can.

    Extras will be to mow the front lawn (my dad did the back while adjusting the mower :D ) and clear out my car which closely resembles the inside of my handbag :rolleyes: and may actually need to have space for passengers on Thursday.

    I'm out for tea this afternoon, and really hope I'll feel like making the effort to go to yoga and pilates tomorrow morning.

    Hugs to Emily & mummyto5, you know that we're here to listen if you need us.

    How's the ironing going Jo? You clearly need to work on your relationship with your iron...:p

    I'm bathed and dressed.
    Bedding washed and on the line. Another load gone into the WM.

    Dratted sun has come out showing that the rain and drizzle we've had over the last week or so was really mucky. I need to do the outside of the windows.

    Kitchen S&S'd, floor swept and kitchen table decluttered.

    Am just about to mess it all up again and do a fry up for breakfast. Then I'll do the windows.
