    afternoon all

    All lists completed so far, and actually on the right days.

    Pouring with rain here but luckily not enough washing for a load.

    Hope everyone's OK, time to start cooking.

    stroke my new trainers, fling the good box they came in (oh it pains me to throw away good boxes, but it's no earthly use)
    You love your new trainers eh? LOL! I know what you mean about the box, I had to throw out a shoe box recently when DH got some new shoes, and it was very hard. I felt that I should keep it "just in case" but resisted the temptation
    Hello all!
    Did all levels last night so have made myself a star out of a cereal packet! I call it inspiration, so let's have no more talk of leaving the board because people haven't dusted or hoovered!
    What a great idea! I might make myself a star too!

    My flying today has consisted of putting a blanket over the mess on the armchairs so I can't see it anymore, hanging out washing, and tidying the LR floor a bit.
    Bit rubbish I know but I just can't get going and so haven't really got much done. Very tired today, plus DH was here all morning so was impossible to do stuff with him here.

    Going to have a nap so that hopefull I will perk up a bit to be able to do something later. Got to do lemon chicken and rice for dinner which will be good! Yum!

    Triker I hope you feel a little less sludge like later

    Dolly hope you feel better, are you sure you’re not pregnant?

    Hugs Dusty and DS

    Soappie thanks for the message from Toots, big hugs and wishing her a quick recovery, hope your DD is better soon too and that you don’t catch it

    Msgnomey have a great time away with your friend

    Valli, love the siggy! Great!

    Right, we are back from the shops. Just having a cuppa then I am going to do a quick tidy round, then get on with my lists.

    Kids doing my head in with their fighting so they have been banished to the garden, where they can run off energy and I will only intevene if I smell blood!!

    pretty rubbish day here, the kids are really annoying me by once again refusing to eat lunch, the big one, after me shouting ate most of her sandwich but left the crusts. The small one refused to even try her pasta she just sat there throwing it and screaming, so thats gone in the bin.

    ok will try and do today's list but have spent a long time in the kitchen making spag bol, shephards pie (which no doubt will be binned) and blueberry and current cakes, which i reckon the kids will eat!!!

    will try and cheer up in abit but dh isn't in until gone 8pm, in a weird way i'm missing the school run...sshhhh don't tell any one!!

    Your kids would hate it here then! No dinner/lunch no pudding. It's amazing how quickly it goes then. If they refuse a meal then they get nothing else and I don't reheat either if they have let it go cold. Kids will not let themselves starve, be tough with them ;)

    Im so moved and touched by what you have all done for me.

    I honestly feel that I cant and shouldnt accept....everyone has their own problems and none of you can afford to be paying for me!

    But im so grateful that you all want to help me and will gracefully accept your help. I honestly cant tell you how moved i am that a bunch of people Ive never met want to help me like this. Just you guys supporting me and being there for me to vent to was enough.

    You are all such angels, im so grateful for everything you have all done for me that I cant put it into words xxx

    So much love n hugs to you all xx

    The same rules apply with food in my house.....if he doesnt eat, he gets nothing else! And trust me, he eats!

    Re the chest of drawers - what I had in 5 drawers, now fits into two!! Its amazing! I will be able to get lots of the clothes from the spare room in too! xx
