moj2 must be nice not to cram / push / kickbox everything into one wardrobe anymore
chickenpox are getting more and more - she looks horrible now :eek: - but hardly ever complains; although the 2hr walk was way too much for her ystd and dh has just no sympathy and doesn't understand that she fights an illness and needs lots of tlc
but she only asks for some creme maybe once a day so she is not in too much of a discomfort which is good i guess :rolleyes:

tidied utility room
tidied pc desk
Filing

It's horrible isn't it Crafty my kitchen window looks like it's steamed up but it's not, I feel like I should be hiding in a church waiting for ghost pirates to get me.
Right, off to work very soon so here's what's left to do when I get in:-
make beds
put bin out for bin men
sort through wardrobe packaging
bin what I can^^^
recycle the boxes
put recycling box out
load DW
quick tidy living room
S&S kitchen
make sarnie for work
house key for work
WM
maiden
sort tea
Haven't got time to empty the WM and hang it on the maiden so I'll leave a note for teenie. I've swept the kitchen floor too seeing as I made such a mess making ONE sandwich :rolleyes:
laters folks! :wave:0 -
Chickens - the older dogs were fine, and the older cats. The younger cat learnt not to after they had pecked her. The puppy struggles to accept he must not chase them. Flower - They jump and fly I am afraid even with their wings clipped - they climb over the 4 foot high dry stone wall that divides the veg plot from the flower garden. What has worked is building some small moveable netted frames that we put over young crops. With hindsight I would have built a bigger run for them. Two chickens should lay about ten eggs a week between them Tag depending on variety. I have lots of bits on chicken keeping that I can cut out and post to you if you are interested?
Cleaning behind the desk, I do it regularly but it is in the DR which has as flooring a large patterned rug with a six inch wide lino (parquet type) strip round the edge. All the fluff and fur from the excess of animals seems to gather here and has a life of its own so one of my most hated jobs.
Raining here, and is supposed to be till Sunday which will make me get on inside at least. Off to to get the children dressed and then will make a start. Kitchen needs S&S, and I need to hoover as usual. 9.15-9.45 anyone?'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
Morning all, forcast promises a good day here so jeans are all on the line and DS1 bedding in the machine.
My hand is not as sore today which is a relief as I had to resort to parrots last night to sleep.
MOzzy I'm glad you enjoyed geocaching - my kids loved it when they were younger and we have done some in France and the USA plus lots in the UK. We always plan a couple whenever we are on holiday somewhere as cheap entertainment
Jjef hope you and DH are ok
Holly hope there was no more upchucking - I assumed the pegs were still in the pot and was just thinking of the shock on some flyers facesThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Morning all,
Ds2 is fine today now i think it was just the coughing that did it. I've kept him off nursery though just incase.

hello everyone, long time no see!
i fell off the flying wagon bad stylebetween being back at work, trying to stick to my diet, going back to college, dd1 being a pain (teenage hormones kicking in i think) and dd2 being a handful something had to give - it was the housework!
the place is a disgrace & i can't live in it any more
