Morning all, right I'm determined to get 1 star this week!!

I did all the washing yesterday and got it all dry and stood and got rid of the ironing mountain last night. So I'm hoping that will make the week easier, although still got to put it all away!

So I'm going to kick start the kitchen with a HHC at 10.00am

ANYONE FOR A HHC 10.00am - 10.30???

Morning all. I've woken up tired and headachy, so not in the mood for scary meetings later. Have to leave at 11:45 so hopefully will get something productive done before then. Am slightly bricking it.

Am still in a mood with DH too. He had breakfast and left an empty cereal packet on the side, the end of the old loaf and a new loaf lying around all over the draining board instead of by the bread bin. But he did take a broken chair and the rubbish out, which slightly made me feel a bit better. I really need to get over this, he's so kind and loving and his good points far out way his bad ones. And he's working hard to get us out of debt and pay our bills. I need to focus on his good bits, that's my goal for today!

Personal list:
Wash up –
Walk
Davina DVD
Write cards/letters to friends
Sort out working tax credits
Empty and de-mould(if required) shoe cupboard
Put in for prescription (forgot to ask for an item last week)
Find a dentist
Sew up knitted cushion cover
Start knitting something new
Buy oven cleaner
Clean oven
Buy Gavisgon
Post letter to Canada
Post cards
Take library book back

Pigpen, hope the back is better soon and your kidney infection. Really hope you will go to the doc and get some treatment as it will help you to feel better. Well done Triker, please look after her

Lady Liberty hugs. Imagine us with you at the hospital, we will all be holding your hand

Jo, hope work is going well today, am thinking of you. If Ex gives you any trouble we will all come with our staplers tomorrow! Glad to hear you look and feel good, you show him you don’t need him!

Welcome newbies, you will like it here

Big hugs Iriedaughter sounds like you are going through a rough patch. I’m sure things will seem better soon. Lack of sleep makes everything else seem really hard, is there anyone who would take the kids for a night? My parents used to send me and my sister to our grandparents for a night every so often so they could have a break.

Andrina your work schedule sounds harsh! What do you do for work?

Hugs Summer and Holly, hope you are better soon

Mozzy hope your DH is better soon

Flower, I think it would be better to take your Mum to the docs, not the vets, unless she is an animal of some kind?

Justamum, hope your MIL makes a good recovery

Quillion

Before you tell me off DH has done most of this before he went to bed this morning. Mum is coming later to help me prepare meals.

:xmastree: Morning Can I Join also?

I was looking through the thread all last week, took me ages to read it all lol but my house (or atleast downstairs) is looking remarkably clean and tidy, wanted to tackle upstairs as well but had nasty sinus headache which wouldn't let me do very much never mind, seems to be going now. I've just looked at todays list and luckily it's kitchen and did this over weekend so can just do quick wipe over everything again I told my Mum about it and I think she think's I'm a little crazy, she asked why I was doing so much and I told her I wanted to get some stars next week! She laughed! :rotfl: Told her why and she still thinks I'm crazy, but my line was, I need motivation to do housework and if stars do the trick, then it's a good thing!! lol Hope everyone is ok, hugs for all x

Welcome to all newbies.

Need to leave the house at 12.30 as LO has Tumbletots,he is so excited,bless him.
Starts at 1.30 but due to silly buses we have to get there really early.
Will get back around 4.30 then have to take DD2 for her injection for 5.30 so will be flying around this afternoon.

Im another one with a very stressed child as DD2 is sitting her exams at the moment,first one is tomorrow:eek::eek:
She has study leave on Wed afternoon,and all day Thursday and Friday,she wants to go to town for some new jeans on Wed afternoon and to be honest she could do with a break,I think she is in danger of hitting burnout,she has been studying so much.
Not really sure if I am allowed to take her though as it says she should be studying on these days Does any one have any idea?

Well off to do another HHC at 10.30 if anyone wants to join me?
