    grrr

    been to town. DS has, meanwhile, disappeared. Not washed last night's pots (THERE'S a surprise) and left breakfast pots out in LR and bed unmade...
    so those pots have been added to the bowl. He can wash them when he turns up.

  • Hello Ladies!!!

    Hope all is welll with all of you!!
    Have been on hols for a week and now have a severe case of the CBA's!!

    Scrubbed house top to bottom before we left (Its nice to come home to a clean tidy house I think) and within MINUTES of being home on Monday night, the place was a sh*thole again!!!
    Blitzed the kitchen this week and you wouldnt know it to look at it today!!!

    *sigh* sometimes it's difficult to find the motivation!! Think I might attempt a fresh start at the lists from Monday. In the meantime I have a ton of washing/ironing to do!! :(

    ...it's enough to make you turn to drink!!!:rotfl:

    muchos hugos

    Mrs B xx

    Hi guys :wave:

    I'm BOYliiiing! Had a serious case of CBA-itis whilst at work of all places, can't be having that there :eek: anyway plodded on and got there in the end, her house is gleaming, mine will be when I've run round with the hoover and the cloth and cleaning spray. Still haven't done kids rooms *yawn* but will hoover it at least whilst the hoover is still up there from bedroom day and before I bring it down to do down here, did you get that :D

    Seems the world and his wife is out at the beach today :rolleyes: had to do a detour to get home to avoid the queues and had a flashback to last years Great North Run when a 10 min trip home took 3 hrs *shudders* note to self: stay IN next Sunday.

    Valli your teenie sounds very like mine at that age, he grew out of it and now at least apologises if he's forgotten to do something then does it, I dare say yours will too x

    FFP how awful ((((((hugs)))))) x
