Thanks everyone...DGS is definitely a little character as Mum2one can vouch for as she's met him...he's a loveable rogue and a bit of a comedian I think.
I haven't seen him since friday or spoke to his mum as she's been at work. and I've been busy....it amazes me what amuses him !!!!
Luckily he's settling into school now and it's his parent evening tomorrow.
Shaun have a good time while away and thanks for the tip.
Am a bit achy from the housework..all the bending is no good for my arthritis and tired!!!..won't be doing much housework today.
Didn't end up going to work but really need to go back.
Hope everyone is having a good day x0 -
Honestly he is the most gorgeous boy, a little commedian and hes got such a heart of gold, he just chats away, give him 10 years, and he'll be breaking hearts.
Really brightens up the room, he'll have the teacher wrapped round his little finger by half term. xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
Thanks for that Mum2one everyone says that about him.
I can also say what a lovely DD mum2one has she's pretty,well mannered and very clever and artistic..you should have seen the pot dog she painted...very good ....DGs was very abstract..lol0 -
Not much completed here today just:
Filled the car
Dropped cheque into office
3 loads of washing and drying
Washing up
Decluttered and sorted 2 big cupboards in the bathroom..you don't want to see the toiletries I needed to throw away from in there.
Sorted 4 carrier bags of stuff that were in my bedroom....recycling/throwing away etc.
So not a lot really but at least something.0 -

:rotfl: I'm with ISOM here! Taxi!!!!! There's about a million things on that list! This is what I've managed to do today:
- the washing up.
- free bingo
- a walk round the block
Otherwise, I've sat in front of the computer, seriously! You've done loads, well done.
To be fair to me, I'm into some serious loafing because I feel a bit ragged at the edges - all those mystery shops yesterday, blah blah, I don't think I'll do that again. And my 2nd bedroom, strangely, is starting to look like a bedroom again - all that decluttering and chucking things must be starting to have an effect.
But you - you sit down and have a cup of tea! Right now! :rotfl:

Those little things add up to big things.
I have been trying to follow flylady for the last few weeks and last week I focused on the kitchen - it's not brilliant but it looks so much better than it did a few weeks ago. Keep going - even if it is litte bits. It all does make a difference. I bet you've made so much space in the bathroom and the bedroom.
