    Morning all, couldn't log onto the forums yesterday and this morning for some reason so I guess I have missed some good stuff. Will look back and catch up later. Inlaws enjoyed the meal yesterday so I am in wifeys good books. DS 2 worke up screaming in pain at 5 this morning and with a temperature of 38.1 so not too sure how much I will be able to do today. He seems a little better now sitting next to me but his temperature is still a little high.

    Will finish putting away the washing up and hang some stuff out to dry- won't worry about the colour pegs and I absolutely refuse to get pink ones :D
    Will find out what I need to do in a minute but this caught my eye ....

    STARTED ON DS's ROOM!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

    I am so sick of his room, he keeps telling me it's done, but his done and mine really don't correspond, so i have done it, well, I made his bed and everything i found on the floor or in the wrong place has gone on his bed, but at least I have been able to clean in there - it was disgusting - and throw away countless science projects... how does he live like that????

    Did you hear about the mother who found a 'S & M' magazine in her son's bedroom ? When the husband asked what she was going to do about it she replied "Well, smacking his bum is out of the question !" :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    Will be back later and try and catch up, hugs to all that need them

    Phil x
    Divorce all finished- now to start saving for a better future!

    I'm too hungry to do anymore! Had breakfast really early to go on my non-existant course!
    I've decluttered the floor under the table and in the LR end of the room so that will save DH lots of time when he wants to hoover. And I've put a couple of the throws into the wash, so that's a few more bits crossed off the lists.
    Going to have a ham sandwich now (healthy) and ice cream (unhealthy).
