    I didn't get on brilliantly in my hhc, but deleted a few emails and ordered a book from amazon (with gift voucher :D). DH is now up and in the shower, I'll have one soon then we'll head out for an early lunch.

    sexymouse - I'm still unsure about the meet. I'm just so tired at the moment and the thought of travelling on a sat on top of 3 hours a day in the week is a bit much at the moment. I'll be a late decision I think, I am taking a service on the sunday so need to see how the prep has gone for that.

    I've

    Fed Gemma
    Taken recycling out including dead roses
    Put dishes away
    Washed vase and a couple more dishes
    Finished decluttering the worktops in the kitchen
    Cleaned worktops
    Watered plants
    Put dinner in the oven

    Was going to make some Twinks but that will make a mess on the surfaces I've only just cleaned!

    Eeek.. look at the time... Best run..

    DD3 has changed her bed sheet.

    I need to bath and dress Tiddles.. and myself.

    The boys have been commanded to tidy their room.. I want to paint it Monday and Tuesday and get it finished Wednesday while DS3 is away to minimise his screaming.. he WILL go hysterical... but it will be restricted to a couple of days rather than a week this way.. and DD1 can do her room.
