    Hi Girls :wave:

    Quick update before lunch (I'm starving!!! This whole pregnancy thing is hard work!!!) Wednesdays and Thursdays lists all done thanks Quillion (I have not caught up with the thread yet, but I think you are still doing the stars x)

    Did the children's rooms yesterday, and after the little ones had gone to bed, I started on our bedroom. At 9:30pm, dh came up, took the duster out of my hand, and ordered me downstairs to sit down and relax for a bit! So I still have a bit to finish in there before the end of the week. I had given the en-suite a deep clean at the weekend, so today I just s&s in there, and then got all the list done for the children's bathroom. I finally feel as if I am on top of the housework, jobs are not taking so long, and my daily's are slowly becoming an everyday routine that easily slots into the day.

    Dad is having his op as we speak. Unfortunately I can't be in London, but he has been in my thoughts and prayers all morning. Mum will call later with any news, but they were expecting him to be in theatre for a minimum of 4-5 hours. Apologies for not having caught up with all the news from the past couple of days, but I hope you are all ok and looking forward to the Bank Holiday weekend and half term (for those with children at school). No school runs and no packed lunches for a whole week!!! :dance: I had better go and close all the windows; I have just heard loud rumbles of thunder and it looks like it is going to pour with rain in a minute. Hugs to you all :grouphug: See you later...Abbie xxx

    YAY :j:T:j:T well done G&B x

    LL I've just done the same lol so she has two copies :D which I could do with probably cause it took me ages to remember whereabouts on my pc it was :rotfl: We'll certainly swap stories, I've just come in and the little [STRIKE]horror[/STRIKE] love has decided to empty the bag of litter and promptly 'go' slap bang in the middle of it lol Why I thought she'd be ok with a bag of open litter I don't know, it's a learning curve lol

    Right, no time to do any list now but it was nice to do a 'mummy' thing for my eldest, he doesn't ask for anything usually.....Mr Independant that he is.

    Will go and put some rubbish out.

    Hope all went well. When do you get the results?

    Have got one extra child today...I'm looking after my friends 16 month old little boy. He has had a good play at toddlers this morning with DD2 then back for lunch and the two little darlings are now asleep. Got him until 4.30pm then I'll working tonight. Looking forward to tomorrow night so I can get to bed early...I'm tired this week.

    Not much flying going on here...DH tidied and vacuumed the lounge last night so it was nice to get back to a clean lounge. Will do a bit in the kitchen in a bit...DW needs emptying and refilling.

    Healing vibes for Toots, LL & Pigpen. xx

    Hi everyone
    My first birthday card arrived in the post :D It's from my friend at York Uni who has the same birthday, so I'd better post hers when I head down for coffee with my friend (we're discussing german too, so its not slacking)

    Wonderful Wednesday - I'm doing the bedroom, because Friday is my birthday and I'm being a rebel and taking the day off!
    Level Three
    Sort through a cupboard of clothing

    Library
    Post bday card
    Coffee with friend 2pm

    Can I have a Bathroom Star please Quillion?

    Hopefully I can get the cupboard done later on today and then I'm taking tomorrow off for exam and birthday :cool: although I may try to pop in

    Love to everyone
