    ironing done
    kitchen floor mopped - it was sticky which I think I will put down to the making of smoothies when I was at the theatre...I wouldn't have mopped it Thursday had I known!
    I also mopped the bathroom floor (since I had the bucket out) and I have tidied and decluttered the lounge.
    I am now about to put certain teens possessions in their room - then, at least, they are out of my way!

    Hiya
    Just a quickie to say hello and massive hugs to GnB and your littlie - I really hope she's better soon and lots of coping vibes for you xxxxx

    My DS is out of hospital again. He passed what they think was his last stone which is why he was in so much pain this week. He's been bouncing on the trampoline with his sister this afternoon. He's still in some pain but nothing like it's been so fingers crossed this is the beginning of him getting better.

    Thanks to you all for your love support over the last four and a half weeks. I can't believe it's gone on that long!

    Hugs to those who need them xxx

  • Mudbath- great to hear your DS is feeling better.

    GnB - hope your little one starts to feels better soon.

    Just finished shredding lots of bills and junk mail which DS1 has used for hamster bedding - most satisfying :D

    Right someone give me a kick cos the bathroom still needs sorting, the washing needs bringing in and I needs to think of something for dinner before the twins devour every biscuit and cereal bar in the house.

    I have some pasta, some cream, some rocket, a lemon and some smoked salmon flakes so some kinda pasta-rockety-salmony-lemon affair I think
    Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j

    So pleased to hear he is out again have a HUG from us three for you all x

    We have had the usual busy Saturday morning with swimming lessons and then we went to try and finalise DH's stone but there was a family already there speaking to the chap we had arranged to see :( Waited around for a while but it was obvious they were going to be ages. We spoke to a lovely lady who noted most of the changes we wanted and arranged to go back next Saturday. I really hope this does not delay getting it completed for Christmas.

    Called at the Clarks factory shop for school shoes for Miss A and completed the mission successfully :D

    Caught up on here, sent a few emails and will be off soon for chinese at Mum and Dads in front of Strictly :)
