I had a lovely day shopping with my Ds, DD went to nursery and we had lovely mummy and son time together. He was really naughty at a restaurant on my birthday last year so he promised he would be really good this year and he was an angel, was so well-behaved in Pizza express despite the slow service and seeing as he is 5 that's not easy! He even stood patiently in M&S while I looked at clothes:eek: His future wife will thank me I'm sure:rotfl:

Flying wise I have done
quick tidy up of kids rooms
made beds
tidied toys away in lounge
put wm on and got next load ready
decluttered a glass of cava:beer: so have made room in the fridge!
bogger all else!
Will start with avengence tomorrow as I'm planning to
get DS to try his clothes on,
hang up the new uniform I bought today
get rid of the carrier bag of crap I cleared out of wardrobe last night
take bag to charity shop

toottifrootti

sandy glad they didnt keep you in today and fingers crossed the healimg will speed up now
Mumto5 I would be disappointed too - its not very good service to a new customer - hope tomorrow is better.
pigpen well done with the furniture and clothes swappingf -hope it works out better but Oi!!!!!!...... you didnt do the important things - ebay and catalogue parcels - I will fling a mule if you dont get them done tomorrow:p you said yesteday you really had to get them done so they should have been first on your list!!!!! tut tut!!!!
MOAM thats great news about DH - I hope you manage to chill this evening and sleep ok knowing that the op is past (((hugs)))
soappie *successful outcomes* vibes for the emails you sent.

ok still havent managed to do much - was just getting organised when my mate across the road came over so that put paid to any work - now i am too tired!!!
I have done a few little bits but nothing worth reporting - except another thing from my list - I finally cleared a lot of the stuff from my pm in box!.

ok off to do stars
toots xx

tootifruities

done to 276

pigpen

Toots.. the parcels will be getting done in a bit.. once I have done tomorrows list and got the grots bundled into bed the catalogue parcels are beingcollected in the morning so I must get those done tonight.. and the ebay ones I'm sending DD1 to post after she gets back from having her hair snipped.

I need to put the bins out and find the bed.. why is it you make a room 1000 times more messy in an effort to tidy it? Then you lose motivation and want to crawl into the bed that is 12ft deep in crap!

thifty

grrrrhhh curry still not here! ordered well over an hour ago and promised it within 45 mins, after having to phone them back when they said they were busy would I mind if they called them back?
methinks I will be taking them out of my address book on my landline and finding another one!

Hi everybody

Haven't caught up on the thread yet (thought better to do the housework:A instead) - still need to catch up on last weeks thread:eek:!

Hope all are fine!

:)AnW's mum - thanks for the parcel - DD delighted and wore it to Slimbridge today to feed the swans!:):)

4 x bags from the attic of doom to the charity shop yesterday and bootload to the dump this morning:T. New tumble drier delivered and installed (took most of the weekend and had to move the electrics...) and is Oh So Quiet! I have to keep checking it's working!

Weetabix brownies were a hit btw! Haven't tried the cake yet...

Off to catch up on the thread(s) with a cuppa:)
