neveah, your morning sounds so much like my morning with feeding animals and taking dog for walk. So far this morning, I have fed all animals, taken dog for a walk, fed all kids, dropped DD1 at holiday club, put a load of washing on, put tumble dryer on.

Still got to declutter for a bit, put more washing on, put tumble dryer on again, do some washing up, tidy up living room and sweep floor. It seems the list never ends.

What animals do you have neveah?

Hi Neveah,

We have 1 dog, 4 cats, 3 sheep, 6 pygmy goats, 2 ducks, 39 chickens and 4 chicks which are 1 week old.

It does take me quite a while in the mornings to get round all these animals and then I have to go and get the wood in for the fire.

The chickens do keep multiplying as well. I have one female hen sat on about 10 eggs at the moment, so in a couple of weeks I will have a load more chicks as well.

Oh and my two oldest children would like some rabbits and I would love to get another dog to keep my one company, but I think I have enough animals at the moment to cope with.

Morning all, can i join this thread please ?

Bit about me . i'm a stay at home mummy to 3. dd 6, ds 4 and ds 22m. i'm 28 been married for 8 years this year. live down on isle of wight. we have 3 cats.

i'n not really that organised however i do try and make the most of time kids are alseep or at school to get jobs done. but i do have set things i do, like monday mornings is bed change.and it is all washed , dried and ironed and put away by the evening. laundry in always washed and hung on airer then next day taken off, ironed and put away , and next load put on airer. otherwise i just have so much laundry build up it crazy. thinking about it, i expect there more things i do by routine without knowing i do.

list of jobs for today,

um well nothing really, apart from the basic of hoovering which is all done, beds all made, kitchen tidy, breakfast stuff all put away, ironing all put away, cats fed, cleaned bathroom etc. waiting for laundry to dry so i can iron it, prob be later this afternoon. i'm making a lasagne for tea and a home made cheesy garlic bread. my eldest son (4) is home very poorly so i'm seeing to his every need bless him.
