    Thanks for the lists and the stars - I'm in again this week please. The week starts with my worst room. Our main bedroom is now the junk room as we moved everything out of the old junk room to sort out a room for DS so tomorrow will spend time clearing enough out of it so we can open the door!

    Hope everyones well x x

    Hello everyone, again.....I am in. I have a not as busy week ahead but hoping to get many hot areas dampened down at least. I've worked my bum off the last 2 days and know it won't stop yet. Oh, MIL is home on Friday ***insert swearing word of choice which describes the selfish mare here*** however in her usual selfish way she's off to Africa for most of her time here I think :D shame huh! I have the caravan swap Tuesday :D all excited but they have to show us how everything works (not owned a new one so didn't know this) then they need to do the paperwork and said can take 2-3 hours! Anyway Wednesday will be chaos as consultation sort of meeting all day then DS1s eye test (which I always dread!) Thursday and Friday actually look ok ish so far. I must remember to get my neice a birthday card as it's her birthday on Wednesday, will get that and postal order on Tuesday when the post office opens. I must get studying done, assignments due 18th and 26th of May....but we're away 22nd - 28th so will have to get that done earlier and study for the 3rd June one while we are away.

    To be good I have just filled my Farm Town with pumpkins so I don't even need to touch it :rotfl: DS2s fault actually and he uses it the most but I have to supervise because of the chat thing on it. He now has a small house, a barn and a few of the other things he wants so we've done pumpkins so they make money without him touching it (I lied, said it was closed for 4 days :o or he'd be bugging me every day)

    Right, clean sheets are on table waiting to go back onto the bed used a throw and spare duvet last night as after the eeek problem I'd forgot to do them. I have no chance in completing the bedroom list I don't think. Too much to do in there for one day. However I will do some of it, tame that fire!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Hello everyone and welcome new people

    Thanks for the organisation Pigpen and Toots.

    I'll be in this week if I can see. I have had a problem with my left eye the last couple of days. It feels like there's something in it but there's not. Now my right eye's coming out in sympathy. I do hope it's not conjunctivitis. This coming week is my last week at the place I've been working at for the last couple of years and I want it done and dusted. I don't want any sick days or anything to extend the finish date.

    I am tired of being there and tired of the travelling. I need a holiday! And I am going on holiday in just under two weeks time.

    I shall now off to bed and hope my eyelids aren't stuck together when I wake up in the morning.

    Night night all
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
