    Apparently they are going to let us know today and since I haven't heard so far (and I was almost the last one in) I don't think it's good news...
    Ah well...
    Worse things happen at sea!

    have JUST realised kids passports run out THIS WEEK so I have ordered forms online (I think) Not that I have anything planned...

    I'm in (trying, I've been terribly addicted to the PC today :() I've washed up and wiped the counters so far.

    My 5 things to achieve for the week are:

    Make a start on turbolisting things (minimum ten by Saturday)
    Mow (strim!) the entire lawn
    Clean hutch including the ground below
    Get all paperwork under control and filed
    Mop the kitchen and hallway this time (keep failing)

    My MACAW this week will be to keep on top of the dishes after each meal and while cooking too.

    Off I go!

    hope Mrs OJ is felling better today?

    Thats much better Jo - how about doing 5 bits of ironing everyday - just 5 and you will be amazed at how quickly you catch up. Maybe at a set time - like while Lo is having his brekkie - you could set the board up the night before and leave 5 things ready to do?? would that work??

    Peace will be mine
