    Well the 12pm HHC turned into a marathon one.
    Hung out two more loads of washing, one more load in the WM. Forced the cats to have garlic pills and fed them, shot out more rubbish, where does it all come from i ask you?!!

    Just had a cuppa, so going to sort some stuff out from upstairs. I'm going to mop the floor later as i want OH to take me to the tip, to drop off the broken WM.

    I'm done! :j:j:j. But it started to rain, so I couldn't go outside. Decided to make a blackberry and apple traybake for DH's lunchbox... and now the sun has come out (and I'm waiting for the cake to finish cooking!!!:mad:). Still, the kitchen is looking lovely:

    washing & ironing all put away. Shoes/ slippers sorted, downstairs loo/cloakroom floor swept

    Splendid HHC, if I do say so myself.

    Back in my extended HHC I

    Washed the kitchen floor
    washed out the bin
    peeled spuds
    tidied kids room up - not too bad really,
    wiped round all surfaces upstairs

    Gonna have a nice cuppa and then hope to get upstairs all hoovered, and washing brought in and folded ready for ironing later. Going to leave the oven for another day lol. Trying to get ahead of myself this week as quite a few busy mornings with playgroups and such!

  • My opinion - she needs to accept that if she complains about something she has to stand up for herself and tell the first mother that her son is unhappy. If she keeps up this pretence, then the poor parent will be completely baffled and won't be able to deal properly with the situation. Yes I agree, but she won't...so should I say something? I'm pretty sure it would stay between me & parent...

    Good to see you sounding so much better :D I have a sign for the thread this week:

    it might have been moved to the old thread. You have to leave the 1st three posts free for the lists, so if your post had taken up one of these slots it would have been moved! (Ive made the same mistake myself in the past!!)
    Hope that helps!

    Have just been told by OH that my green skirt & pink cardi do not "go"
    I have decided that actually I don't CARE! Quite a refreshing change to my attitude, actually!.
    I can be a badly co-ordinated hippie today if I want to!

    Seriously though, I DON'T LIKE PESTO!!! :rotfl::rotfl:
    :rotfl:If you have made someone laugh today... check your skirt isn't tucked into your knickers!!!:rotfl:
