Stay at home mums getting organised in 2010

ragz_2

Boys went to stay with their Auntie yesterday so I had the afternoon off (baby slept a lot) which I spent drinking tea with my best mate and having a good long chat - which was lovely.
House is a bit of a tip this morning though as I didn't do any of the hosuework I'd planned (niether did she lol).
Might brave taking baby to the market today, but she seems to hate supermarkets so much I'm a bit nervous, but hopefully pram and fresh air will means she sleeps through it.

Have put WM and TD on as token effort to housework!

Post Child Benefit Form

Just need to have a quick tidy round before OH gets home.

No lists from me over the weekend - that's family time and the house ends up a tip anyway from everyone being home so it's pointless.

Nope ...:o....have been bad this weekend ....... but at least I am honest

My dh is away with work and so I am planning to do loads of housework tomorrow. I have mums and tots and swimming lessons tomorrow with ds but we have heavy snow forecast though so not sure if we will be going out yet. I am planning to spend the afternoon and evening getting lots of jobs done. Then planning on trying to keep the house tidy all week while dh is away and just keep on top of stuff.

I seem to be craving sweet stuff at the mo and I have just stuffed my face full of sweets and I now feel like I might pop! I didn't really crave sweet stuff as far as I remember with ds. I have so much chocolate, sweets, cake in the cupboards :eek: I don't seem to be able to stop buying or eating it! HELP!
