  • Right, I blitz both of the bairns' rooms, so when it's that day I can have that star... I've also de-clutter our room - the only thing left to do is wash the bedding and when it's that day I can have that star.... I done the landing cupboard out - why is it so hard to part with baby clothes, well I'm going to be brave tomorrow and take them to the charity shop got eight carry bags full. I have kept one suit from each of them.

    I'm bushed so I'm going to soak in a relaxing bath now the kids are both in bed.

    Haven't kept up with the thread, so hope you are all well.

    Survey done for stove. They're going to requote for a different (smaller) stove, and for the work to open up the fireplace etc... anyone would think I hadn't discussed it in detail or given them photographs :rolleyes: so I haven't paid the deposit yet ;). When the requote comes tomorrow, payment of the deposit will, of course, depend on them being able to make the date that they originally promised they would pencil in...

    Suppose I should sort out the laundry, DW and food... and then crack on with the flying...

    Ouch Soappie - big hugs to you! It just as well spotty, dotty, potty dog didn't see the picture of that stick.....she LOVES sticks. This morning there were three dogs trying to get a stick off each other....one on each end a little Jack Russel in the middle whose legs weren't even touching the ground. It was very funny. I've given up trying to get them off her now but I never throw them for her, much as she wants me to, after seeing a dog impale itself on one....yuck!

    TODAY'S LIST IS COMPLETE!!!!

    I'm going to make a start on printing out my assignments ready to send off. Not sure if I mentioned but i'm starting back at the hospice tomorrow. I've had two months off because of DS but I now feel confident enough to leave him at school and not sit by the phone....famous last words. I can't wait to go back.

    Right, half hour print / sort assignments then that's me done xx
