Yeah...go on then. Have just done a bit in the lounge and its looking better already. Might tackle the girls rooms. DD2's just woken up so I might not be that speedy with her in tow.
DD2's getting really used to her new glasses. She got them on Friday afternoon. It's really funny watching her staring at things as if its the first time she's seen them.....suppose it is the first time she's seen them clearly!
Think I'll make a start on DD2's clean washing pile that needs putting away then go on from there.0 -
My HHC didn't really go to plan. After hoovering Ds2's room i thought i'd vac pack the duvets. After wrestling the double and a single into a super large one and sucking all the air out, i heard a hissing sound.:eek: I had to parcel tape the hole up, the only problem was as soon as i taped one part up it started hissing somewhere else.:cool: Then i had to revac it. I'm hoping it won't be fully inflated by the next time i go upstairs. The other one was fine thankfully. Then Ds2 wanted me to do a puzzle with him so i did that.
Now i'm not moving except to put the kettle on until it's time to pick up Ds1.
