    Hi Dadoftwo

    Flyladies are nice on this site, honest!!! we need a man of the thread, wwe promise to look after you.

    I agree with the other posters, get your kids involved, they make some of the mess etc and are old enough to help sort it out, also good training for when they go to uni or set up their own homes.

    I've done all the fiddly things I planned and got the the bottom of mount ironmore.
    I've even made packed lunches, sorted out supermarket vouchers for school, and detailed DH to tidy sitting room.

    eta Rach you will get a new mattress won't you? (Sorry, I know I'm fussing!) How much bedding do you want?

    No grace here, unless school is closed due to lots of staff being stuck abroad. Unlikely. :(
    Must do: finish minutes from meeting with boss, look through a piece of coursework, finish planning Y8 exam, plan Y7/9/11 lessons for tomorrow. Sort out Y11 coursework as deadline is looming. Write a to-do list, before I lose the plot completely.
    Not much then... :eek: And yes, I know it's my own fault for leaving it so late (again). If DH had trained as a driving instructor, then maybe I could have looked at working part-time.

    You are allowed a holiday. Write something at the top of the list that you have already done so you can check it off and feel happy about it!

    I'm bored, thinking of this for sitting room to go above big dark wood fire surround, any views...http://www.johnlewis.com/230653678/Product.aspx
    not sure if I like it as glass not bevelled.

    Afternoon all

    Here at last and up to date with you all!

    I have only skimmed the thread but realise I missed LL's birthday :( sowie, I hope you had a great day, sounded like a lot of fun.

    I am hoping to get some serious flying done round here next week. We have had a fun time whilst Miss A and W were on hols bu not a lot has been done housewise at all.

    W has helped me sort the washing and put a load on for me :D Also filled the church envelopes with change.

    The facias are being replaced next week so I will be doing some flying but other times I will be out the way as it feels like being in a goldfish bowl.

    Love and hugs to one and all xx
