    Just popping in quickly to say that I'm not sure what will get done this week (again :().
    Decluttered old garden bench and plastic storage thing to two freecyclers tonight :T. Someone is also interested in the herb wheel, so that should be gone soon.

    Plan for the week:
    Monday - a bit of work and an earlyish night
    Tuesday - collect DH's tablets, get paint for DS2's playhouse, sort and put away all clean washing, wrap DS2's presents and write card
    Wednesday - DS2's birthday, going out for tea with family
    Thursday - haircut, flying
    Friday - half-term :j:j:j
    Saturday - DS2's party 10-12 (followed by his friend's party 1-3)

    I was just having a little tidy of my kitchen and decided to nip on here to see whats up for tomorrow :D and I cleaned the fish tank earlier:D:D and I cleaned out the fridge and freezer and my food cupboards yesterday as farmfoods was shutting down for a refurb and everything was half price so I need to make plenty of room:D:D:D oooooooooooo I must be reading piggers mind through cyberspace:D:D:D:D

    Had a little look through DD's school bag (as I do every night) and found her report card so asked DS2 if he had his. Yes he forgot! Both of them are glowing and full of praise. So I'll get them a special treat at the weekend. I'm very proud, the comments from the Head were fantastic.

    I may have a lie in tomorrow as I'm sooooooooooooooooooooooo far in front (not that I'm one to boast):rotfl::rotfl:
