Made beds
Took laundry off airer & Td for 10
Collected dirty laundry
Wm x 1
Folded & put away clean laundry
Put Bm on

I need to go and see what we can have for lunch, there's no bread so i think it'll be jacket potatoes.

Morning, just!

Been to hospital with LO, all her tests came back ok except.... The dust mite one, when i asked doc if it was possibly our rabbit she said definitely:( Not so much the rabbit itself but the bedding and hay and loose hair. Unless we shave her and make her sit in a sterile cage with no bedding looks like i'll have to rehome her. So if anyone knows anyone in Scotland who would like a lovely, friendly, house trained rabbit who is good with children let me know.

Will have to keep on top of the cleaning more as well, extra incentive i suppose.

Have emptied DW and reloaded, will S&S kitchen in a minute.

My best mate popped round this morning with her eldest, after an hours walk to take the two youngest to nursery as she crashed her car in the snow the other day :rolleyes:
They were very cold when they got here!

I was good though, I managed to clean out the fridge while she sat in the kitchen chatting then I did the dreaded cupboard under the sink, which revealed 2 Irons (I don't iron) and nearly 30 energy saving lightbulbs!

Have you tried using shredded paper instead of hay? And keep the rabbit in an outhouse or utility room and brush it every day (you not the LO). I had a child who had asthma and we kept a dwarf rabbit successfully for years (two actually, one after the other).

I have just decluttered the car of snow in the hope that the remaining bits will melt in the sunshine and I MIGHT be able to top up my washer bottle (I'm using about a 40% mix atm and might make it 50/50 actually) and top up the antifreeze, too.
No chance of checking the tyres until I go to the petrol station.
Bathroom finished all bar floor.
***Valli looks at book of jokes and kitchen and sighs deeply***

Why are blokes like horoscopes?

They always tell you what to do and are usually wrong!

Thanks, unfortunately we live in a flat and there is nowhere i could do that. Also alot of her diet is made up of hay so i wouldnt want to deprive her of it.

HHC turned into an hour and a quarter, but in that time I have:

* Cleaned the bathroom really thoroughly (even pulled out shelves and sorted stuff and decanted dribbles). [Why on earth would you throw out perfectly good toiletries when you can decant them into a classy bottle and fool people that way? ]
* Changed the heads on the electric toothbrushes and cleaned up the toothpaste dribbles caked all down the sides :eek:
* Changed the battery in my alarm clock (good job there was no need to wake up early this a.m.!)
* Mopped the floor in the bathroom
* Deleted about 150 e-mails from my computer
* Installed a new computer game for DD who is on her second 'snow day' [only been in school one day since Dec 11th!!!!!]
* Emptied dishwasher, tidied round kitchen, worked out what to eat without going out for supplies...

Ohhhhhhh PLEASE let it be the bathroom today!:rotfl:
Pretty please?:o:o:o

Good afternoon.

I got very carried away with my HHC at 9pm. Continued until the wee small hours. I now have DD, DS1 ans DS2 baby cards etc in huge padded envelopes. I don't seem to have anything for DS3. Now I am wondering if that was another thing we lost in the move (15 years ago). He will be gutted.

Dh laughed at me and said it was a cop out, giving to them so they have to dispose of them. He would get rid of all our wedding stuff too but I might just put it back in the loft.

rose I would love your box I wish you lived nearer. Maybe I could ask on Freegle for boxes.

Today's list
Post letters
Post parcel
Pay tax bill
Order repeat prescription
Declutter 2001-02 financial info.. into fire?
Photgraph things for ebay
