well i only have one specific plan today and htat is to clear the HUGE box of clothes which has been sitting at the bottom of my stairs and growing rapidly, it started with my youngests clothes that i was putting on ebay and a year later it is 3 times the size of the box and going nowhere so i am sorting it today and putting most in the recycling bin

So my plans went out the window as im not feeling well! So OH is doing everything, currently around some where getting new wheels fixed. Im at a loss what to do, I'm not used to being without the Little Miss!

Well for some reason I couldn't sleep last night-went to bed`at 7am today! Anyway unlike myself I had a mad fit and started sorting stuff out in my ktchen. Still a ways to go,but so nice this morning to go in there and find myself ahead of where I expected to be! Obviously I am shattered today but still aim t deep clean my cruddy bathroom,double check I have all the school uniform and PE kit for monday and clean the school shoes.I have some ancient ironing in the basket since before Christmas so will force myself to clear that as well! I also have to give myself some attention-we are being taken out to TGI's tonight as we never got to celebrate my oldest boys birthday in November (I hadn't long come out of hospital then) so aim on giving myself a bit of a facial and washing my hair-actually blow drying it after lol!
Rainbow sorry to hear what you are going through-what a horrible thing to happen at Christmas Have you ever ventured onto Kizz's thread ? A lot of people,including myself support each other after marriage break up. It's a it slow on there at the moment because of the holiday but it's a great place for advice and support. I'll come back and post a link.

Hiya all

I hope you are having a good weekend.

Today I have de-cluttered, cleaned and tided up the hallway. Normally covered in shoes and coats on the stairs. All nice looking now. I have also finished all the ironing that I started yesterday and sorted out the blankets in the living room which the kids will no doubt mess up once they see them in a neat pile!! :P

Thats all for today i think, afterall it is the weekend!

3onitsway he won't go anywhere near anywhere with a cafe, so that rules out our local Morrisons, Tesco and Asda. Sainsburys is fine for him, but the car has been out of action so we have to get the train/bus to the next town. At least it means we eat up what's in the freezer cos I can't bear to go shopping! Oh, he is 6. Please tell me it gets better! :cool:

Hmmmm. :silenced:

Mine likes cafes, because he loves eating.
Online shopping is a great thing for when threy're off school - I find Tescos to be better than Asda. I also spend less online.

My task for the day was to get rid of the Christmas clutter. It's done, just need OH to put it back up in the loft. My living room looks lovely and bare.

I am going to leave my tree up until tomorrow (it's such a lovely one this year and has only shed a very few needles) but am going to gather the other things up and put those away. That will leave a manageable job with the tree tomorrow. I hate it when all the decs go away! I know then that Christmas is really over and it's back to the problems and drudge
