Aint you got enough in that menagerie of yours Pigpen?! :rotfl:

I finally did the ironing! And the kitchen. And loads of clothes dried too. 1 in the WM still to be dried and that's the washing all caught up.

Off to start dinner, lasagne, garlic bread and baked tatters.

Hi everyone. Been out and about today so I've not done any flying except from posting two ebay parcels and running a virus scan while I was out.

Here's the list for me to start while the girls are eating tea. Probably won't get too much done as DD1 is at swimming lessons so we need to leave at 5.15pm.

Magnificent Monday ~ Living room, hall and stairs!
Wipe any marks off the walls and paintwork
Dust and deweb! inc light fittings!
wipe over all the paintwork! Inc doors!
Extras

1. Sort out the rubbish from your purse/most used bag

The great declutter!

• 100 thing fling!!
• 15 minutes filing

Twinkly Tuesday ~ Bathroom, Loo & Cruddy Study
Declutter and mop the floors!!
Scrub the tub & tiles, basin and bowls!
Extras

1. Wipe any shelves and reorder them.. do not put back what doesn't live there!

The Great Declutter

• List 5 things to sell/freecycle
• 60 in 60 ..

Off to put tea out and make a start. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up with everyone either later on tonight or tomorrow afternoon. If I'm back later you'll know I'm not doing the ironing that I should be doing!!

Make sure the computer is off. Then tip the keyboard upside down and tap it. Lots of stuff will fall out. Then use the soft furniture brush from you hoover and run it over the keys. Then get a just slightly damp cloth ( you don't want it soaking wet!) and run that over it. Then it's all done!

Sun's finally coming out again so I'm going to hand out the washing again.

Nothing done since comimg home from school this afternoon got upset over a comment made very loudly to another mum in the playground and as i was the only other person standing near i asumed it was meant for my ears. Probably me just beng over sentive plus its coming up to that time of the month but it didnt stop me from coming home and having a good cry then found comfort in a pk of jafa cakes and a couple of choccy rolls.Its out of my system now just feeling a bit headachy but thats down to me being a piggy and eating all that junk thankgoodness i don't buy crisps very often or they'd have gone as well .
Right kids are waiting for their burgers better go and sort them out.

soappie - rain didn't make it this far. I'm back from my walk and about to put the washing out again.

Jo & triker - love the fact that the bumble bee costume comes with a g-string... most important bit obviously

Pigpen - rabbits are useful aren't they? surely you can feed the family easily if you start with a pair

Had a lovely 2 hour walk with my brother, starting at Longparish and following part of the test way (I'll try to find a site to plot it on and post a link). So that's an extra 15000 or so steps today!

Guess I'd better get back to work!

phizzimum

thanks soappie, that doesn't sound too bad, I'll do that later. I could do it now but DH is waiting to use computer!

aw this is it - sorry you had a bad afternoon. what is it about the school playground that makes some mums regress to overgrown children themselves?
