    Pheew busy day busy day! I now have ALL my wardrobes and my vanity set up done :D:D just a case of filling them as I find stuff now (emptied 6 bags in our room today) I've also filled 2 charity bags as another came through today, filled 3 bags of rubbish, done 3 washer loads and of course went to the conference. Conference was brilliant, so many positive things....I was just being asked by Phillippa Stobbs from the DCSF in London who came up about DS1s old school when his old head teacher walked in.....little coincidental :rotfl: his ears must have been on fire! Anyway really enjoyed it. Now our conference is even more rocky as our morning presenter has injured himself so I am with another parent going to try to piece the morning together. I also need to do the mornings slide show presentation too......before Thursday am with limited internet access. Brill....hmmm.

    Right anyway, tomorrow we're making a start on DS1s room I hope so we can move the blanket box into there and finish our room completely. Desk in, DPs keyboard in and his wardrobe doors on. Oh and take DS2 to dentists.....yuk....Best go make us some tea as I am hungry. Toodles x x
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    *Flitting in and out quietly*

    Hi ladies!

    Long, long day today, about ten minute break for lunch, and meeting after - I'm shattered! I have however, wreaked partial revenge on Year 8 for being so awful last Thursday when I was being observed. :D This will be a long, painful process - for them. I am so going to win this one.:D

    Msgnomey - re telling the time. I am teaching the time in French at the moment. I've totally given up trying to teach big hand and little hand - what's the point when they all have digital everything??? I teach 14.55. (Quatorze heures trente.) They just have to learn more numbers.

    Flying? well, not really - a load of washing, and washing up. That's it until tomorrow.

    Hugs all round *flits out again* ps I'm a non-ironer.
    It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be

    I've managed to s/s a bit and i'm off to bed now. I had a look at that thread.....she sounds very trollish to me. She has an argument for EVERYTHING which, considering how childish she seems, doesn't 'fit'. This is one case when I really hope she is a troll!

    Night everyone xx

    Hi all
    I'm back with a list now for the first time in ages..not that I've done much off it!! We're without heating still cos the boilers gone wrong, we can keep the lounge warm with the woodburner, but with the rest of the house freezing its not giving me any motivation to go to any other rooms to do chores!

    Monday~ Kitchen of Grot and Dining Room of Gloom
    Level One
    Level Two
    Wipe the big appliances and units.. don't forget kickboards!
    Wipe small appliances and replace.. do one thoroughly.. descale or decrumb or degunge!
    Clear a sticky dishevelled cupboard
    Level Three
    Binbag dance!
    Clean the oven and hob..
