Well.I feel a bit of a failure

We don't fail here hun. It took more than a day for your house to get like it is so it will take more than a day to rectify (see that is some law of science). Little and often wins the day. x

Today is DD2's French oral for her GCSE - so if anyone can spare some positive vibes at 3pm I would much appreciate it.

Brings back memories of a year ago when DS1 did his. Hoping all goes well, it is a lovely feeling once it's done.

Bowing out this week as LO is in hospital again, rushed her in at 1.30 last night. Got home about 4am so just heading back in now, after some coffee.

Hope everyone is ok:A

Big hugs for the 3 of you and hoping your LO is home again really soon x

Triker - hope hubbie is ok

Soappie - good luck with the job, they'd be mad to let you get away

Rose - Mary was fun wasn't she. Hope your upbeat mood continues

Hello

Did a bit yesterday but I'm struggling to get motivated. My lovely MIL keeps dropping in and phoning as she's worried about me. My own family don't have a clue they are all too caught up in rows about the will. DH is away and we are playing telephone tennis at the moment. I really need to hear his voice. he really is the best medicine:o.

I did manage to declutter winter clothes out of DD2 and DS3's wardrobes. I've refilled the space with stored summer clothes. You can tell DD2 is a very longed for daughter she has as many clothes as Suri Cruise. I love NCT nearly new sales and can't resist a pretty dress for £1.50. I flinged the tatty rug in their bedroom and Flinged 3 bags of gibble out. I have sorted 2 bags for freecycle of boys clothes, 3/4 and 4/5. PM me if anyone wants them.

Bunk beds being delivered some time soon so I need to decorate their room (Pigpen's an inspiration). And arrange to get the carpet cleaned as it's good quality but flithy.

G & B - Poor LO. I hope she's better soon.

Triker - Ouch. Hope the swelling subsides soon.

Didn't you know... dogs have owners, cats have STAFF (or in the case of Dusty's QV... subjects )

I haven't tried that model of deterrent, but I have two 8 or 9 year old ones that are pretty effective. I'm getting one of those and going to try it, as it claims to be silent. Unfortunately I can hear mine. Then again, I can hear the phone charging and the wireless signal from the router...

(((hugs))) GnB and LO

cyclingyorkie

GnB - mega hugs to you and your little one - let us know how she's getting on!

pigpen

Painty painty painty paint...

It is looking very nice.. just hoping to get through glossing today.. Wallpaper tomorrow!

DD1 deposited at school with a flea in her ear.. lazy sow thought not getting up meant she wouldn't be hauled from her bed and kicked out the door.. She is lucky she is healthy and can go to school.. one of her friends has been off 18 months with leukaemia! Ungrateful snot!

OH sent off to Cooplands for food so I'll make a cuppa and hang out washing while he is gone... I am definitely wearing him out lol.. he was in bed before 2am yesteday lol.

In my HHC I s/s the kitchen. I hung out one load of washing and reloaded the wm. I picked everything up off the living room floor and put it back in it's rightful place. I also got all the gibble out from under the sofas. Hoovered LR and cleaned tv screens in LR and Kitchen. Polished light switches. Swept hall floor. To finish off I had a look at Greenbee's garden - nice work:T

Ok I'm calling a Tea break - my mouth is parched & I'm late with my 11 o'c tablets!
