Coooeeeeeeeeeeee :wave:

So far, I have swept a floor, put some rubbish out, assisted with 3 star wars lego, and made a paper hat for the Christmas tree, why GS6 want the tree to wear a hat, is beyond my understanding, but he seems happy with it.!!

I hope you are all well, hugs all round.

Sorry but I am only going to do a little reading, as I have to pay by the minute to use this here, but it has made me relise how much time I waste at home on the internet , I think come the new year I will invest in an egg time and set it for 1 hour or what ever, and then lappy will be turned off.

Take care xxxxx

Kaz.. just bin it.. as off-pi$$ing as it is if they aren't looking after it, it will inevitably be broken and binned.. so you may as well bin it or charity shop it now before it is broken. A philosophy I am having to adopt in the girls and the boys room.. and DD2 is constantly being told to tidy her room too! DD1 has nothing in her room.. I binned it all a few weeks ago.

Food time.. then bath time.. then bed time in here I think

macpep1

Afternoon everyone, hope you are all well, we took kids to see santa today and DD is singing at a carol service so DH is just away collecting her, I have HM french bread just out the BM ready to go in oven and roast all ready to go in for after our soup and bread so whilst am waiting

Anyone fancy a HHC 4.00 - 4.30??

Need to get bedding back on ours and DS bed

I'll join you a bit late macpep - just transferred one load of sheets from the WM into the TD, and put another load of sheets in the WM.

Think I may have discovered what is giving me a rash (thought it was a bug or heat rash) - they seem to have changed the recipe on the Lenor fabric conditioner I always buy (summer breeze) as I noticed it smelled different when I put it in the machine today, so will have to hunt down another one that I'm not allergic to.

Where has the day gone it is dark already!

I managed to empty the cupboard and then with much pushing and shoving have got the dishwasher in there!!! - It will need moving to the kitchen when the plumbing is done for the WM and TD to go in there. i would have a go myself but also want the sink taken out of utlity room and the pipes moved from the ceiling.... too big a job for me!

I sorted out a large bin bag of stuff for the charity shop and also a travel cot and suit cases that may sell on ebay. Will clean and list them tonight - must go now as have to drive 22miles collect DD from work - no trains at the right times on Sundays!

Thankyou again for listening to my whaffle...... you really are inspirational - normal routine for me would be to plan the jobs but then not do them as am too tired!!

Tree is up and looks great, rest of the decs may need doing over the coming few days.

Just going to put the dinner on - roast for the first time in ages and then see if my blind fabric stiffener has dried and worked.

. trying to get the stove going really well, so am burning a lot of kindling :rolleyes: My dad has informed me that I need to buy local newspapers as they burn better than nationals or resort to firelighters :eek:

:eek: if you can get maya sticks they work really well as do dry pine cones. Funny about the paper. Keep all your woody prunnings from now on (I keep mine in potato sacks) so you have a big store of them.

I NEED HELP

Hugs Kaz. It sounds harsh but she obviously doesn't value the stuff so I'm with the others. I'd remove the whole lot into bags/boxes and put it in the garage if you have one. If she needs something she goes and sorts it until it is found and puts it all back in boxes. Do not replace lost/broken items and go real easy at Christmas. After a month anything she has not removed she doesn't need so seel/bin/charity but loose it all. Once the room is straight give her HH each week to tidy it and anything not put away remove into boxes like before. Good luck

AF failed to visit for 4 months so it has been like having permenant PMT since the summer and my house is full of crap and I dont know where to start.

huge hugs for you. Can I ask if there is a reason AF has not turned up? If not then please, please go and get this checked out. Too many people depend on you for you to not take care of your health xx
