Hi everyone - new to this but I managed a level 1 plus a bit of level 2. Really didnt want to do anything so quite pleased with myself.
First day back at work today and soooo tired, feel like I have been off for 10 years instead of 10 days! Need to go and get clothes out of wm and put them over airer before I go to bed. Oh and need to polish DS shoes, mind you he will probably be going to school in his wellies looking at the weather forecast!0 -

Evening ladies
Where has today gone
Ok so my alarm was set for 7am to get me in the swing of things but I changed it to 8 when I got into bed. Went it went off I turned it off and went back to sleep again. 10am I finally woke again so by the time I got fed, bathed and dressed it was lunchtime.
Today I have managed to take down 4 Christmas trees, err I think I was supposed to have help but didnt :mad: so packing everything away (as it has to be done alakazmeister) took ages. Boxes are now at the bottom of the stairs and on the landing waiting to go to the attic, the big tree box I cant even lift let alone carry up 30 stairs :eek:
Then I cooked tea and DS bless him told me he would clean up but I said as it was kitchen day it had to be done Pigpen style so he was threatening to come on here and call you a slave driver :rotfl:. So some of kitchen done and then the battle to get DD and stuff ready for school and in bed by 9. At 825 it was going well at 905 it was well wheres this and wheres that :mad::mad::mad:. Hopefully its all there now and she was in bed when I left her. ETA I can hear her playing with the dog now so am not happy

I am sooooooooooooooooo tired!
I have reshuffled the living room furniture which had previously been moved to make room for the xmas tree and hoovered and dusted as I went. Ive gathered up all the clutter from the living room which doesnt belong and started to rehome it. Ive washed the throws off the sofa and cleaned the sofa and armchair. Ive folded up some dry laundry. Ive S&S the bathroom......
In fact, Ive done loads.....all to put off ironing.....Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying

frodders i feel your pain! Have done my planning (such as it is for first day back) and have begun to mark some worksheets and have put clothes and sandwich stuff ready, can feel mega sulk coming on as I really dont want to go. Hope it snows loads and they shut the school (not going to happen though is it really)
So what will I be missing out on tomorrow then piggers ? Am so excited to find out and hopefully it will be things i have been doing already so a quick flick will be all that's requiredCross Stitch Challenge Member ?Number 2013 challenge = to complete rest of millenium sampler.0 -
Best get the ironing board out tomorrow now then Jo, bit too late to start now unlike greenbee who needs a great big kick up the jacksie- can't believe you would sleep in a sleeping bag rather than make your own bed you lazy mare! And yes I am trying to avoid the marking!Cross Stitch Challenge Member ?Number 2013 challenge = to complete rest of millenium sampler.0

Well I hope he now appreciates what you do around the house seeing as that was a fairly typical list nothing bizarre or ultramean... he should count himself lucky it wasn't the evil one with the attic, garage and shed!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
Prepared a couple of ebay listings - need to add photos. Must get going to bed now or I wont get up for the school run. Sleep tight flyers and hoping nobody who doesn't want snow gets it.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
