    (((hugs))) Poohbear, I do hope everything resolves itself very soon.

    No list done today, but I have shopped and now we're off to the dentist. I'm not quite sure how I've ended up, again, taking all the children at once, since I swore I'd stop doing it. It's too difficult with DD3. Anyway, wish me luck I'm going in!!! :D

    Sunnygirl, How did you get on, I'm afraid it took me HH just to prep the kebabs and clean up after myself, so no ironing done yet. DD has just gone out to play, but AF doesn't feellike standing for any particular legnth of time so will have 5 and see how we feel.
    Poohbear, hope things sort themselves out xx

    Hi all

    I feel shattered and just want to go and have a bath and a lie down but DH won't be back until about 7.30 and the kids are already getting on each other's nerves. Hopefully things will be better after today though as I just feel drained now.

    Anyway, I stripped the bed this morning so I'm going to hoover the mattress before making it again and then I should have some of the bedroom list done wjenever that comes up! Need to get my washing in off the line and put my bedding in the TD and then I can't see me doing much else apart from making tea.

    I've decluttered all my work stuff! A nice colleague came and took it all away! Hurrrah! She saved me so much stress going into the office!

    Am going to check on my baked potato - and possibly serve up dinner if it's done.

    Greenbee - I've only done 800 steps since 2pm when the pedometer arrived. I'm going to have to vastly increase my activity to get 10, 000 steps per day! I'm aiming for 5, 000 today as I've only had half a day to do it in.

    Poohbear - hope things sort themselves out, hugs to you xx

    I'm so glad I hurt my back this morning. I started surfing the net and got in touch with my best friend from university. We've not seen each other for three years as we've both been busy - it's so easy to lose touch. We chatted for an hour and a half and she's going to come up and stay soon. I'm so chuffed I made that call!

    Flying - DD put away all the clothes and made tea bless her xx
