    Extras
    1. HHI
    2. Tell someone you wouldn't normally that you love them.. life is too short not to let them know!
    3. Spend half an hour on YOURSELF!!! not the cat or a child or anyone else.. just you! HAHA fat chance of that happening!
    4. Wash any sticky grotty windows!
    so glad it is kids room today as DD's friend is coming for the day tomorrow, so it will be clean and tidy in readyness for them to mess it up again! :rotfl:
    although i am enlisting DD's help with keeping her room clean and tidy for the forseeable - it's her birthday in October and she is wanting a few bedroom bits(a shelf and a mirror:confused:) and also a tv as most of her friends and her cousin have a tv in their rooms - we always said that we wouldn't allow her one(we don't even have on in our room) but we are struggling to think of what to get her for xmas as she doesn't really need any toys and any clothes that she needs my mum tends to get for her, so a tv is the only thing we can think of!
    a tv will not be got though unless she can prove to me that she can keep her room tidy - yes i am a nasty mother, she is only 3!:rotfl::D:D

    hugs to anyone that needs them especially natty
