Popped back on before bed to see if any news from Sandy - hope you're OK love.
Ballet and disco went well - DD loved it, DS was happy with me and when he did venture onto the dance floor at the disco a boy knocked him over accidentally so that was that. Got kids to bed and I've decluttered a cream egg - very nice it was too - and have done over half of 1 typing job.
Really ought to tidy kitchen but CBA - it can wait til tomorrow (hope Piggers doesn't get me with her flying mule). Got towels / dishcloths / teatowels etc in to go in hot wash 1st thing - can't believe how quickly we get through towels! Apart from that nothing much going on as my foot is giving me real jip and it hurts to walk but I realise it's nothing up to what a lot of you go through every day so have to get over it won't I!
Right, early night for me - no DH to wake me up when he comes up to bed later as he's away :T, let's just hope the kids sleep on after late night tonight and I can get a lie-in.Flymarkeeteer: £168 and counting0 -
