    Ooo, can't believe I've got two stars this week!! Pretty sure I can keep this up, and will make a big go at my extras tonight as well as I keep falling down on the half hour exercise and ebay listings. Need to check my outfit for a family wedding in a couple of weeks too - I'm hoping black accessories will work with it and then I think I'm going to take a stab at making a fascinator! I had a look at the bits they had in Claire's on my way home from work tonight, looks simple enough and certainly not worth forking out £14 on!!!!

    So wish me luck and good luck and well done/keep your chin up hugs all round!

    DONE! Ha! That's what I say to the bathroom![STRIKE]Wednesday ~ bathroom annd cruddy study

    I did the main bedroom today...I'll post it on the corect day. I ahve also done quite a lot of decluttering, as I'm determined to catch up on all the unfinished bits around the house, and I also went in to speak to the people in the bathroom place, as I'm determined to get this cloakroom sorted.

    Have to take DS2 to rugby - back later!

    Evening.

    Still not finished my dailies but I have:
    finished the ironing
    got the washing in off the line
    Talked to DS1 about his Maths
    Cooked dinner
    Borrowed a sleep mat to save buying one

    Next:
    Tidy up from dinner
    Supervise DS3 h/w
    Get DS3 swimming stuff for tomorrow ready
    Check DS2 has his shower
    Look at h/w planners
    put the WM and DW on
    sort the plastic bag mountain

    Oh they are outside collecting our recycling - very odd at this time of day.

    I did most of the bathroom on Sunday and finished the rest today. My DB and sister in law have arrived safely. This morning the dailies were done then I went shopping. Also did one washing load of towels.

    Toots I will ask them to bring you some nice weather when they travel back on Saturday. Take care.
