    I thinks something will have to be said to your OH, there's coming close and then there's crossing the line.
    err I'm with Triker...on BOTH counts here.

    grr DD has been on PC all day her room is a tip clothes all over the floor but she won't go and do it because I 'threw' her off the PC. Well I'm about to throw her off the TV too.
    Windowcleaners came when I was on an errand this morning SO DS ignored them (DD was in the bath) so they weren't given access to the back (I lock the side gate) and have therefore only cleaned the front. But I have only just found out. No sign of their colleague who is supposed to be clearing my gutters.
    I have decided to sell my cycle carrier - I will put a free card up in the supermarket. I am too chicken to try and attach it to my car and if I need to transport 1 bike I can drop the seats and get it in the car. Not originally on my plan to clear the shed but why am I hanging onto it when I never use it:confused: and it'll be a bit more in the bathroom fund.

    Uniform Washer
    I dusted and dewebbed my living room earlier, then did all the windows, patio doors, front door - all inside and out! Then realised none of it was on the list! :rolleyes:

    Have done three loads of washing, which is all one the line drying, have brought most of the first lot in as it was dry, and the fourth wash is on.

    Sorted out and watered my tomato plants which have been a bit negelcted recently and weeded a bit of the garden and tidied up some of the path.

    Then, I have sat in the sun....reading.

    Sarah - didn't her Mum tell you that DD's friend was prone to accidents - thats awful of her if she didn't, my DD is 9 and she can have the odd accident but she has a special problem, but, all the Mums know about it if she visits anywhere and they know to remind her to go to the loo constantly and she takes spare clothes with her and I offer to clean/pay to have cleaned any accidents although to be fair she is better at other peoples than she is at home. I do sympathise with you - its bad enough clearing up after your own kids without having to do someone else's

    yes it came back negative so i am a little :confused:, was due the day my nan passed away(thurs) and did the test on saturday

    erm - you know how they say they are not 100% accurate - well if they say you are PG you are...if they say you are not PG you might well be. If AF doesn't show try again. The innacuracy only applies to nergative results (I can explain this to yu scientifically if you like but don't want to bore the pants off everyone)

    GnB your poor littley...

    right am at the end of the thread and all caught up...
    washing on line
    ALL beds changed AND remade
    DD upstairs tidying/putting away I hope
    Freecycler has been for the shovel - I think it's one OH decluttered for a former employer well I have just decluttered it from my shed.

    AnWs
    - you have your USER name but then it puts your email on our Freecycle. I just assumed, since it has your firstname, the initial of your surname in your e mail addy and the location to collect from that it was YOU - now what's the story?

    Triker take it easy then - ME follows GF quite frequently I believe, though I might be wrong
    Soappie WTG on the cold caller

    ETA Congrats TIA

    I'm pooped. Why does shopping always take longer than you expect it to? It didn't help that one of the shops I wanted to get something from had a fire alarm so I had to lurk around for a while until they'd sorted it.

    But, I have shoes, I have a shawl, I have the paraphernalia with which to make a tiny little drawstring bag from. I have food for the weekend. I also have a card and some confetti.

    I am just going to update the stars and then take to the back garden to pamper my feet (exfoliate, re varnish nails etc.) and cool down. It was soooo hot and sticky in town, it's a joy to be back in the 'burbs

    Tia - many congratulations :bdaycake:on your new addition
