    Valli and if memory serves me right there was a rather nice male last year on the clean up? Hugs for you for your burn - what a numpty - put lavender oil on it it will stop the blister bursting if you do it early enough. Glad the kids are home safe - and well done to the boys for their car washing enterprise. Thanks for your pot re post 3 that was very nice of you and well said!! xx

    There's always one person with a memory like an elephant. *tsk* Mind you how I could possibly impress a guy when I plunge in up to my waist I know not...
    DS went car washing with a girl BTW - they have been friends for a long time - not BF/GF but true friends! He takes his GFs to her for approval!
    I'm glad someone else posted about the uplift LOL
    Anyway...I have stuff to do and do it I shall

    Re the blood is it fresh/red? could he have a tear? Has he had to push IYSWIM
    I hope it's not rockfords I hate them...
    Have a hug anyway (((hug)))
    SSL - street angel house devil then you 16 YO - I have one of those too. Hope it's some consolation that she clearly can behave responsibly when out...that's what keeps me going sometimes.
    Oh and DS has handed cash over for the xmas gifts he has ordered from Avon already (order went in today) so that's good. The order has come to over £100:eek: as they have both ordered xmas gifts from the sale (so I ordered the bag you could have if you spent £7.50 - well it was only a £5 would have been stupid not to, really)

    The next part is on tomorrow so don't wait until next week if you want to see if Eve's BF if guilty or innocent - I really want him to be innocent but I've got a feeling he won't be :cool:

    Hugs Madmayfly re redundancy, hope you get another job soon, get hunting! Lots of our flyladies have good ideas re cv’s and finding jobs etc

    SSL, hope the new job goes well tmrw

    Hugs Wilf, that is a huge list already!

    Valli, I meant to say have you got an aloe vera plant? Put some on your burn, or cold tea is supposed to be good

    Hugs Mudbath for your DS

    OK, I need to write a list

    I'll be sort of in - will do a general clean and tidy, as probably won't have time to do the lists again, as have a manic week ahead again. Probably won't post until the weekend, so just in case I miss it and don't get online until Sunday, a very

    Time to finish my tea, pack my lunchbox for tomorrow, then wash my hair ready for tomorrow.

    thanks Valli - that's what I was wondering but it's dark, maroonish and mucusy! Sorry for TMI!! I'm wondering if he's had a stomach bug and that's what all the pain was on Friday. Think i'll phone the doctor on Monday and see what they say. Fingers crossed because I have ulcerative colitis and i'd really, really rather he's not got anything like that.

    Going off to scream and then breathe deeply. I'm sure he'll be fine! xx

    I have a spider plant, a money plant, an amaryllis, a bromeliad and a cactus - any good?
    LOL

    erm Mudbath do you think it would be wise to try to get a (omg I can't believe I am suggesting this I would so puke - ) sample in case it's an infection or to show the mucous (yuk yuk)
    (I had to get a sample from ds nappy - rotovirus and I heaved and heaved - and people used to ask me if I wanted to be a nurse like my mum? erm -no! I cannot deal with vomit either - I trained the kids to hit the bathroom and THEN yell for me!)

    DAILIES:
    Washing up
    Empty bins
    Tidy LR/Kitchen
    S&S bathroomm
    HHK
    French lesson
    Days Text
    Bible reading
    Water plants morning/evening

    EXTRAS:
    Sew up black bra and pink one AGAIN! GRR – do before holiday
    V14 form and cover letter to explain that car is at insurance company and we really do deserve a refund for our tax disc! – do before holiday
    Declutter under the sofa – do on Monday and Tuesday
    Make draftexcluder – do after holiday

    Monday – go for walk with J, hoover house, clear top of TV, start under sofa (involves major furniture moving)
    Tuesday – finish under sofa, focus on kitchen
    Wednesday – visit Lady Liberty
    Thursday – DH to market and cooking fish pie for holiday
    Friday – pack for holiday, make sure kitchen is spotless before holiday, change the bed?


    Don't panic, it's not as bad as it looks! Somethings are repeated in the different sections, but it makes sense to me. My major goal is to have the kitchen washing up free and nice and clean before we leave on Saturday - I really DO NOT want a last minute rush to get it all done. And I'd really like to walk back in to a nice tidy, clean place. It's not too bad at the moment, needs a hoover but is relatively tidy - yay!
