  • Another early start - still the downstairs loo is proceeding apace and fingers crossed, i'll get a lie in tomorrow :j- I don't know how those with littlies get up each morning - shiftwork I do no probs, 7am starts :mad:! Perhaps thats why I'm so grumpy, just sleep deprived.

    Wrote a draft of my presentation yesterday - need to refine it today, and check against the list of necessary points.

    On a happier note, its my FIL's 80th birthday today so I'm taking him and MIL out for lunch - DH will see them tonight, while I'm at the X factor concert (Mom and Sis' Xmas pressie).

    Day off!!! This week has been manic. The only cloud on the horizon is another dental appointment this afternoon...

    Okay, have printed off the lists, leaving off all the extras for the time being, and plan to get stuck in and do it all by 2pm. Unless I get bored and wander off into the garden because the sun is shining.;)

    Warning to all newbies - do not attempt this - I can only do it because I've been flying for a couple of years now!! (And the kids are all home, and so there will be a fair amount of enforced teen labour as well:D)

    Huge hugs for mumoffour and your DS - totally agree with everything that has been said.

    Love to you all - see you later!!

    Morning all

    Two loads of washing today, the first one is out on the line and the second one is nearly finished. It's a bit dull out there and was drizzling earlier, I hope it dries.

    When DH goes to work in 10 minutes I plan to dust the living room and computer desk and vacuum through downstairs. And then watch ER :)

    Hope everyone's OK, haven't caught up yet.


    ps what a lovely butterfly Toots, thank you :)

    Morning all,

Then thought Oh well relaxing weekend but agent called yesterday afternoon and now have a viewing on Sunday :mad: DD and DS2 at school. DS1 came home from college yesterday with S&D but has caught the bus in to college today after taking some immodium... poor thing:o Don`t think he`ll last the day as he`s feeling sick. Don`t know why he went in. Probs cos I am such a dragon and banned him from comp games. Bed if your ill!!

    Top floor done Off to do the rest... Love, hugs and positive vibes to all that need them. Haven`t managed to catch up with thread yet.
    The Grass may look greener :o but it`s always going to take just as much mowing ;)
