    Kitchen looking better now as well as the livingroom, toys all sitting on livingroom table so when hubby is watching the football i'll sort the toyroom, then move all in.

    WM to go on and DW (most get more dishes:rotfl:). Most throw beef in the SC or there will be no dinner today.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Morning all

    We have had a busy few days so have had no time to get on the pc let alone see how you all got on. I shall have a skeg back at some point but hope in the meantime that it has been a good Christmas all round.

    We are currently drowning in lego! W is tres impressed and even more impressive is the fact that we have no duplicates :D He also had a DS from Father Christmas so he is well chuffed. Miss A had her books, jigsaws and surprises plus lots of other bits. I think one of her fave presents is her singing Shaun the Sheep.

    Having a very lazy day here so far, we are all in PJs still lol I am about to hit the shower so should smell sweeter in a wee while!

    Hugs all round to each and everyone xx

    WM and DW both sorted, been to church and just debating leftovers lunch.
    Can anyone tell me where to find all the abbreviations and how to cross out lines and what on earth I should be doing today/tomorrow/for ever in terms of flying - am feeling really up for it at the moment so better make the most of it before my enthusiasm wanes again!

    Today's plan includes WM, DW, sort books in front room, find a home for Santa's gifts to us all, find cross stitching and do an hours worth (while watching something on tv!)

    Hope Hamlet does come out on dvd soon - David Tennant and Patrick Stewart are on my list of 5 (men that I would most like to be with) so need my own copy to drool over :)

    Argh I need to stop going AWOL from this thread, my poor little house suffers for it!! (I do have a good excuse this time though!!)

    So after Christmas day and all the babies presents my front room now resembles Hamleys toy shop. Still not quite sure where to put all the toys ....

    Anyways, the OH decided to propose on Christmas day which was very sweet. So now trying to organise a very MSE wedding. :j
  • Hi Flygang,

    Decluttered visitors home and DH to work, so DS & I are getting our house straight!!

    DS has coped well with our very different Christmas but is appreciating a quieter calmer day today. I've put my back out again (only stretched out to see if the alien monster maker was ready to make another), so he's being a little star and helping me with the things that are a bit too ouchy.

    I have several mountains of washing so best get to it...


    Moam
    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.


    Snowball says too far away, working hard to bring it forward.

    Am going to watch it later but I have to give this laptop back to my old school after Christmas and get a new one from my new school so am going to see if it will download, save and then let me burn it onto a disk in the meantime
