    Morning all

    It is pouring here now, fortunately it was not as bad during the walk to school.

    Hugs to all those having a tough time - Frodders you friends family are in my thoughts

    Soappie - I hope your last day went well and have a lovely weekend with your family.

    Boddy - my Mum never liked me being Treasurer of the PTA, I have no idea why as it did not affect her in anyway

    Greenbee - it is so refreshing to here of your Mum going on to do something fab after retirement

    Not much get up and go here again today. I need to go out soon to return stuff to TKMaxx (14 days up today) and Tesco and if the rain is not too bad I'll pop into Aldi and the bike shop whilst I'm out.

    DS1 new mattress coming this evening so his bed is stripped - I need to wash his sheet as for some reason I only have one for his bed and get it dry for tonight - might need to finish it in the tumble drier.

    Morning .

    have just had to get washing off the line as it has started to chuck it down . Typical as im going to hairdressers soon so my lovely new hair will look like a birds nest if the rain does not stop .

    I am assuming it is kids rooms today so i will get on with that in a minute .

    also wanted to clean out rabbit hutch but i think that will have to wait due to weather .

    so apart from the kids rooms the rest of my list ( which might have to carry on over the weekend ) is

    clean out rabbit hutch
    hoover and wash car URGENT as may have to drive family to airport

    Morning All :wave:

    Hope everyone's well...

    Frodders my thoughts and sympathies are with the family of that poor young man. And many many (((hugs))) sent to you too.

    Moan/Rant On

    My house is steadily getting worse and worse now. It's not helped by the decorating that got started, and not finished because I don't like it... so the front room is full of stuff from the LR, so the whole place looks carp. I was thinking about how people make judgements about who you are by what they see of you and your surroundings. Well, anyone that didn't know us well would think we live in a tip. Really cheesed off about it.

    But I don't have anything like the energy required to get it done! :mad: I just want to feel better so I can crack on with it

    Moan/Rant Off

    On the upside:

    I've put a load of washing on
    Tidied the kitchen
    Tidied the littleys bedroom with them helping. Good use of 20mins!!

    I think I'm going to attempt to put some order in the front room so at least it doesn't look so awful. :)
