Hiya - I'm in again this week
Thanks to everyone for the lists/support/helpfulness/laughs
Instead of making a cake/trying a new recipe I will try out HM yoghurt OR making marmalade, depending on how brave I'm feeling...Part time GCer, NSDer, Comper and (Bad)FlyladyA big shot is just a little shot that kept shooting ...0 -
I am in again - doing great up to the mid week and then Thursday and Friday don't get done. At least I couldn't see oven cleaning on the list this time so I might have a chance of completing my kitchen for the first time"Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Hi everyone,
Completely failed in keeping up with the thread recently so hope everyone is all ok.
Had a busy day again...DD2 at swimming lesson this morning, made celery soup when we got back, took DD1 to running club after lunch and did 7km on the treadmill myself, then came home, made toad in the hole for tea and some carrot cake fairy cakes most of which are to freeze for lunches.
So I'll do a quick list cos I've done a few bits already then will be collapsing in front of the telly with DH then heading for an early night. Lots of early nights this week for me as its the Manchester 10K run on Sunday!!!:eek: So will be running 8km tomorrow night then just a small run mid week before the big day.

painting finished... YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Going to watch Dr Who and Casualty while knitting and will be asleep early.. already in bed lol it is very bright and clean in here now... apart from the manky carpet which is being hauled off the floor in the morning.. once the children are at school OH is moving the chests of drawers, wardrobe and mattress out and I am putting the sheets etc in the WM and moving the smaller things out.. and cutting the carpet into bits to be binbagged for the wheelie on Tuesday.. I have a totally empty bin saved just for the purpose! it will all fit in there I guess.
I need to build myself a shopping list once all these huge tasks are done to make the bedroom more homely and less clinical..
I have the radiator to slop over again once the carpet is down.. fortunately I am not a messy painter and I have lots of dust sheetsOH can put up the curtain pole and we are building the cot straight away so everything is where it needs to be.. the baby stuff can be stacked accordingly in its proper places too which, in theory, will mean we are just about ready for juniors arrival.. apart from the washing not being done for another 5 weeks
.. we have about 10 weeks before baby is likely to put in an arrival.. 6 weeks if we are anything like DS3.. (that just made me panic lol... that is WAY too soon!!) I haven't even sorted out anyone to watch this lot! I need to sort hospital bags the same time as doing the washing too I think.. everything is incredibly dusty in here
I am waffling I know.. sorry.. I just need to get it out of my head..
I have 'tidied' my diary, along with my phone charger somewhere stupid so cannot catch up with anything.
I have to pop into school in the morning to see DS3's teacher about his homework.. they reckon heisn't dyslexic but I think he may well be dyscalculate!!! He has absoutely no idea when it comes to numbers/maths and has once again shredded his homework!!
The grubs are off to KH's after school.. picking up about 4 and bringing back about 7.. or else he isn't having them any more after school.. I thought that was fair enough.. I did suggest he picked them up from school but that was a step too far.. lol..
OH is making a cuppa.. he has done most of the decorating in here.. the ceilings are very high and I can't reach..
