Good morning, it is beautiful here:T
Congratulations Sexymouse, i'm really pleased for you and quite jealous, would love to have got married on a beach in Jamaica:cool:
Had a bit of a mishap last night and spilt 5 litres of swarfega type stuff all over my hall:eek: So my hall floor is lovely and clean, was a right booger to clean up as it is quite warm in my flat nd it had turned to liquid.
Not sure how much flying i'll get done as i have a lot of study still to do.

Kids decluttered to school/playgroup and I have 2 hours to myself to make a start on the bombsite. WM on, and off I go to pick up all the carumba from the sitting room floor and sofas....:eek:0 -
Thank you for the lists you lovely ladies
Diva glad you’re at least posting again-signs of better things to come.
MrsChaos might follow your example to keep on track-I find Im spending far more time catching up on the gossip in threads than doing the work.
Um, Rach last time I checked “flinging” counted as flying. How are you feeling? Is your energy returning? I found I slumped again this weekend.
Im going to add my own list today, rather than the LR-a combination of last weeks lists for kitchen and monsters room. DS is not back to school today as he has chicken pox:eek: Thankfully he doesn't feel ill and it seems to be only a mild dose, but I did have to go to the cottage hospital on Saturday for blood tests as we couldn't remember if I've had it...all seems well though.
I also had to sleep sitting up last night as I had such bad heartburn so it was not a quiet night in the house of PolkadotsI have promised Little boy that if he lets me do what I need to do in the kitchen and his bedroom, then we can make some cookies later-yes, we're still in cookie swap mode:o Ive ordered the bits that I need to make the candle invitations-and some bead bits to make some wine glass charms and christmas key rings to go with some home made wine for favours.

Thanks for the list. Will add my extras to it. We are currently getting ready to move aswell so busy decorating the other house to get ready when the rent ends on this house, so the binflings are great right now. Have spent all weekend at other house so really need to knuckle down today, kids back at school and pre-school so with the school runs I can get shifting in-between. Hope everyone has a good day.
