Oooh.... poor you and LO and bunny... I'd have her you know I would.. maybe you could find a friend or family member to take her on so titch can still go visit her now and again?

That is what we are trying to do, my friends GF has always loved her, they looked after her while we were on holiday last year. Should know by tonight if they can take her. If not will try the rescue centres but i would rather she went to someone i know.

Hope you feel better soon piggers.

Woop woop!!! I had figured it would be bathroom day too, but the bathroom was more tolerable than LO room so decided to do half hour in there too.

Lo has been very good and he has tidied all his toys and picked up clothes and put them all away. I made the bed etc and am going back up with the hoover/duster/polish in a sec!!

Toots - LO says Hi :hello:

Going to go do a HHC in DD's room and see if there is anything I can sel on netmums.....see you in 30.........

Y'see on some level I knew it would be kids' bedrooms today because it was the thing I least wanted to do - room 101 - but perhaps I should see it more as 'face the fear and do it anyway'?

But I'm on the bathrooms - 1 down + downstairs loo/2 to go. We mostly only use 2 - family and our en suite but there have been and will be visitors and the top one needs a going over. Lovely big house = too many rooms sometimes.

Aiming to get it all done today though so I can build up to DS1s room tomorrow - DS2s is fine as I did a blitz on Sunday so will just need cleaning. Back to cold toes scrubbing the tiles in the shower.:cool:

Eeek - I've just noticed it says spare rooms too - that may take me all weekend to sort....

Ignore my message I am already a member of facebook group, must've joined ages ago - Twit!

Oooh didn't know there was one! No I meant general Facebookiness and Farmville! Should I join, or will it just give me an excuse to procrastinate more?!;)

Have cleaned bath, basin and loo. Spent ages cleaning tiles - lots of 10 year old grout still on them, it came off really easily so why didn't I actually do it 10 years ago?. Think I'll continue bathroom because girls are playing so beautifully in their room and I am loathe to disturb the peace .

Should I hoover 3 years worth of dust off shower curtain or shove it in washing machine? (Shower hasn't worked for 3 years, obviously!)

Have vaccumed the living room and hall (aka the patch...its tiny, I live in a ground floor flat) So that my tuesday list done Look at me go!:D Washers on load 3 and I've sorted through all the leaflets and junk we pick up at a wedding fair in October...in theory thats inspiration. Have also been looking at dresses on websites. I'm not really a dress girl so I have noooooo idea what I'm doing, will probabley end up looking like a five year old playing dressup:rolleyes:

Glad to see your okay(ish) Pigpen,

Well this is the one I've been dreading. One of the bedrooms is perfectly fine but the other is a bit of a dumping ground for all DDs stuff that she left here while she went off on her travels. I've been slowly going through it at odd moments but I will really try to get it sorted and ready for visitors by the end of the weekend. We want to decorate it soon so I won'e be doing heroic things cleaning the paintworks etc.
