As BB's yellow eye seemed to spook you all, I've changed my avatar briefly - she now has yellow bows in her hair!

And now she looks cute:T:T:T:T

I think I might get my way and have a Volvo next.

And I'll do the driving

My mother, in her volvo estate, was stopped at traffic lights.. some loony pulled out of her drive and crunched into the corner of my mothers car and wrote it off.. my mother also ripped off her finger nails and got concussion... so you're not safe even in a volvo!!

Went to see mum and she was still a bit off. Then DD said its how she used to be as soon as she saw me she would act as if ill or cry. She doesnt do this with DD as she knows she wont get away with it. Once again she was fine when she did not realise I was there. Ive been for my eye test and everything fine. Sorted out all my socks and didnt realise how many I had. T Shirts also sorted out and some in charity bag.

Sorry to hear about your mum, boddy; hope she's feeling better soon.

Just about done the bathroom now - that one is easy as i tend to keep it swished and swiped on a daily basis anyway.

Hi Everyone

Am home and thats me off until MONDAY woop woop!! :T:T

So whilst dinner is cooking in the oven, anyone fancy an HHC 5.15-5.45?

That should let me get my final star.

My curtains that I took down from bedroom look terrible, they are all horrible and stripey where the sun has bleached them so I am going to have to buy curtains with a lining in them I have 2 windows so its gonna cost me

Where did the and the :sarcastic: smileys go???

ceebeeby

Phew - that's one bathroom done (all levels), with curtain in the wash as I type. Two to go before I can star claim! I hadn't realised what manky toothbrushes my kids have got (cleaning that bathroom is usually their job, so I never go in it!!) - will be stopping in Boots on Monday to buy them new ones - yuck!!!!!

Do the kids bedrooms get a week off this week - just a s&s - they'll be pleased!!!!
