The boyfriend woke me up as he was getting ready for college at 7am this morning - to complain that he has no clean clothes.... And HOW exactly is this my problem/ fault? So i asked why he hadn't washed any, and he said well when do you think I have time? Grrrrrrrrr I'm so annoyed with him. He expects me to have time to do everything, and somehow know when he has run out of clean clothes, before he does.
*And breathe....* Sorry for the rant... Time to crack on with the list..

I know exactly what you mean - my DH used to leave his dirty clothes wher ever he had taken them off and expect to have them cleaned and ironed and back in the drawer (this is what his mum used to do). He soon learned that if it's not in the wash basket it won't get washed! He doesn't like the idea of running out of undies so he's quite good at putting his clothes in the wash basket!
Do you want him to do his washing entirely seperate from yours? Might be an idea to have a talk with him about what you want him to do around the place!
I'm on a roll, so going to tackle the LR now! It's a tip!

And there I think lies the problem - his mum did everything for him, but he doesn't seem to realise this! We have to pay for laundry so I don't want him to do it seperately, and I dont mind doing his laundry, as I am home much earlier than him most evenings. It would just be nice if he told me BEFORE he actually runs out of clean clothes. Ah well. He can be trained eventually.

Anyone want to do a HHC? 11.50 til 12.20, then afterwards I'll take the laundry down and do it while studying (multi-tasking, me!)

Hi All :wave:

Well, my DD2 got me 4 times this morning with April Fool's Day jokes. I'm normally much better than that... :rolleyes:

FunfairP I do hope everything is ok with your OH. Please let us know...~~~~~~ sending healing vibes

So far I've had a gorgeous walk in the park with Handsome Harry
DW
MW
I put everything in the TD, but didn't turn it on.. speculating about the washing line now... lots of clouds.... I may risk it.
Kitchen S&S'd

Got to go and do big shopping, which is Lidl and Sainsburys for me. *yawn* But I'm just soooo tired. I fell asleep at the computer, and thankfully was woken by the Vegbox delivery.... with asparagus and purple sprouting broccoli. :drool:

Morning Toots :hello:

rosepink1984

The April Fools on this morning is so obvious - it's a man who's gone bald and put on a cream made from polar bears and now 2 hours later he has a full head of hair! Yeah, whatever!!
LOL!
Anyway, going to put pile of paper for recycling in a bag to make it easier to take out to the bin (had to think of something about flying to say)
