Well the list is looking a little shorter.
Well i've let the cat out out the front door, i mean crying at the front door !!!!!!!! :mad:then if i shut the front door with her out there she screams even more :eek:.
I mean theres a perfectly good back door with cat flap yet she wants to be out the front door. Worse than a child i tell you.

Just having a wee break. Watering done. Chewed the fat with Nice Neighbour opposite.

Going to do the bathroom floor and then the kids shoes - before lunch.

Mumto5 hope you and hubbie have a very Happy Anniversary and well done on sorting your dress. Have you cut out all wheat or just bread?

juliejim

I've sorted out the present cupboard upstairs so that I could put some more stuff away that I'd bought which was sitting in the DR. That means I can now do the DR which shouldn't take long. I have a load of cardboard now though. Don't know whether to tear it all up so I can put it in the brown bin or take a trip to the tip later.

mumto5 happy anniversary.

Has something bad happened with serena I will read back to see.

Thanks for all the good scan wishes. It went ok, but am only 6 weeks preg, so going back in a fortnight for another.

Will a blu-ray dvd play on a normal DVD player??

Hi
Just thought I would pass on a handy tip I have found,(you may have already heard of it anyway ) I burnt something a couple of days ago and had black marks left in my saucepan. I tried the cola thing - leave it in there but only left it for an hour so may not have been long enough. Tried cleaning it again and no luck Put washing powder in with hot water and left overnight - tipped it out this morning hoping it would be loose enough for easier cleaning and was pleasantly surprised to see washing powder,water and black stuff pour down the sink - no scrubbing needed!! Yee-ha result
Right off to cook food for kids and then get ready to go to town and fly round shops

DS up and showered and out to work. 2 more loads on the line - running out of pegs - OH bought some cheapo ones and they're falling to pieces!

washing up away - dd2 dispatched into town. DD1 breakfasted - i have also ironed her chosen top for today - there was yards of material!

DD1 is cracking the whip - the house must be spotless - but I wasn't doing the bathroom sink before ds had been through there! No point!

I must also have a good s&s in the kitchen before royalty (i mean DD1's visitors arrive!) - They're mostly ME sufferers and their other halves...but they were out celebrating 1 girls birthday last night - me I'm just hoping they arrive with shades on !
