Triker your post about ebay describes me exactly! I must get on with it:o

Moutains of washing as the horrible teenagers have picked up all the dirty and clean clothes on their floors and dumped them in the utility room (hence me sitting in there crying).

Going to tackle the ironing mountain and try to make it look like a large hill.

Last bit's done, youngest ones decluttered to bed and just found DH has decluttered the rest of the wine:mad:

STAR PLEASE:T

Off to Lightwater Valley tomorrow so not sure what I will get done. Our bedroom isn't to bad though. Have told DH that my medical condition means I can't go on the rollercoasters:( Its called cowardlyitis:rotfl:

Personally I think you should go on strike. Lock yourself in the utility room with a bottle of wine, a good book, some chocolate and some loud music and let the ungrateful so and so's fend for themselves for a bit.

Piggers - condolences, and remember to look after yourself as well as your mum...

PenPen - hope you're fully recovered. Did we pick up any new recruits on our little outing?

OK... logging off as I have work to do and never seem to manage it if I'm on line

Greenbee - I sent you an email

Plan for tomorrow

1) paint DD's ceiling and the hall ceiling.
2) cut skirting in kitchen and put in livingroom.
3) gloss skirting in wee hall and main hall.

I'm totally shathered today, Rhys just won't stop screaming it's driving me nuts and i really don't know what to do with him anymore.:(

Budget not looking too bad for the next couple of weeks so fingers crossed i'll get carpet for DD's room and the hall.:D

Pigpen, KH should buy your DD a whole new wardrobe, give him hell.:D

It's in Wentworth near Rotherham (only about a 5 minutes away from us)

Thanks, it's a bit further for me but I'll bear it in mind for the future!

If you are making arrangements to meet up, could I please request you do it by PM - you never know who's reading and who might jump unsuspectingly on the bandwagon

I was just wondering where this garden centre was, as I know I'm not too far from MrsChaos, not planning a meeting. But I take your point about posting & PMs on board for any future planned gatherings.
