Chilling out for the rest of the night, think I'll finish my book then start on the new one!!

Valli

Well have wrapped the fourth xmas gift I have bought - because the kids went on a hunt last year so they shall be thwarted LOL
and have listed what it was and price (reduced, natch) on spreadsheet so I can keep track of what has been spent and on whom.
Have applied cotton wool and bleach to light pulls...
Things have been homed or charity bagged as appropriate
ooo goes to check if has any bids/watchers on e bay
Not a one..ah well!

Have had my tea and am plucking up energy to do the dining room...

gratefulforhelp_2

Sunnygirl love it, its a sheila's maid I've got an old tatty one, not smart like yours. Works a treat and you can double the load if you hang coat hangers off it.

Spirit love the light pull idea, am going to try it.

JillD with that many titches you are entitled to feel a bit stressed...I was going to offer advice, but soappie will be much more use than me. The only thing I have learned working with and having children is to catch them being good meaning praise like mad the things you want - in our house "good girl for sitting down" and ignoring what you can safely ignore of the behaviour you dont want. Still, I do have a 19 month old who climbs on the table and a 6 year old who when she was three went for a month only eating cheese! You may not want to listen to me :rotfl::rotfl:

Didnt think I would get this done today but didnt make it to Babygroup due to a 2 hour delay at the hospital:mad:

I know they are busy but my back was in agony by the time we were seen.....Its a brand new childrens outpatients and not one seat has a back on it
They are just wide cushioned benches(cant think how else to describe them)

We were only in for 5 mins after all that I may go for a soak as the ache is making me feel really sick...need to wait for DD2 to come in first,she has gone to Meadowhall,was supposed to be back for 6pm so guess who is grounded again.

WMx2 dried on line put third load out and heavens opened again.

DS1 has hoovered the whole house for me :j:jHe makes a great job of it too,He got £5.00 from Nanna for Easter but what he wanted was £10.00 he never wants anything so I gave him the extra money,,He offered to hoover through3 times to pay me back.Bless Him.

Hope you are feeling ok Toots

Hi everyone, cracked on with the list when i got in from work and it's looking ok so far! I filled 12 bags for the charity shop last week (from my room alone! :eek:) in preparation for the flooring being laid so not sure i can find anymore things to throw but i shall take a bag and scoot around seeing what i can fling that belongs to the others, they'll appreciate it i'm sure!

Happy Anniversary for tomorrow Sarah and wishing you a wonderful birthday L-L.

Ok here's the plan:

put kids to bed (I need to do this too)
go for run
pour large glass of wine on return and slurp (just to rehydrate of course)
quick shower
more wine
HHI
more wine
bed

What do you reckon?

The Soappie project plan:

Pour glass of wine
Put kids to bed
Get map out whilst sipping wine and plan run route
Contemplate the various routes available and discount them due to

• boggy fields (means mucky running shoes which will then have to be cleaned etc.)
• too much traffic (means muck in lungs) and the possibility of getting knocked down
• too dense a wood (I'm a lady on my own after all - can't be too careful)

Pour another glass of wine, put feet up and be grateful I've considered personal safety and flylady cleanliness first and avoided getting mucky/mown down/ or injured.
HHI
Another glass of wine
Put empty bottle in recycle bin
Crash into bed

They don't HAVE to have pudding. I only serve puddings on high feasts and special holidays...

Sarah was monsters vs aliens any good? DH wants to see it, hopefully he will wait and watch it on lovefilm so we don’t have to pay for cinema tickets!
FFP, hope your boiler is fixed soon and you can warm up, although today has been boiling hot! I’m still on page 27 so not seen if its mended!
Holly hope your son is better soon
Flower I loved your post about depression and money and how the thread has helped you so much. I feel the same, this is a wonderful thread with wonderful people posting on it!
Embb, thanks for telling about your low point. I’ve been there many times with trees and pills and things so I’m glad you are feeling a bit better now. I’m doing much better today, just very tired now! I think I did too much today! Do ghost pirates often lurk in churches? I would have thought they would be near the seaside, or in Davy Jones’ locker! LOL!
Mozzy and Dusty what is geocatching?
Welcome back Loopy and Shell
Cally, thanks for your comments, that book sounds interesting. I’m going to start doing my ratings and keep them in a notebook
AnW’s mum have a lovely night out, enjoy yourself!
BlueberryPie I was home-educated! And so, funnily enough, was DH! Good for you!
Mooloo hope you feel better soon
Jo, I’m glad you had a rest. I’m not sure where Phil is, but he was having a bad time and might not be feeling up to posting. I miss him too, hope he is ok. Come back Phil, we miss you!
AnW’s mum, you are right, and I do try to reject that thought when I get it. I’m still fighting!
Witchypoo, well done on finding your cooker. Can you buy it through Quidco or another cash back site?
Hugs Kazwookie, hope you cool down soon!
Well done Valli on your popmaster win! Ten years too late, but I still feel congratulations are due! It’s a hard quiz!
Laura it’s really nice when your OH notices isn’t it! You are doing well
Pollybear, I make sure my DH notices! I keep mentioning what I’ve been doing until he says something, or else I let the place get really bad and then have a mad clean up so that the difference is really obvious!
AnW’s mum glad to see W has got his priorities right. I always take more toys away than clothes!

Have only got three more pages til I've caught up. Don't post anymore, the last page keeps moving away from me!

I'm going to wash up in a mo!
