    Morning all

    Diving course decluttered
    Neighbours rabbits out and fed
    Other Neighbours kids in tow since 8:00am
    DS3 new school trousers purchased at ASDA - to label
    DS2's trousers labelled along with DS3 PE top
    DW finished - DS2 to empty now

    I'm going to get my dailies done and then:

    HHI
    HHG - deadheading in the front
    HHP

    Kids should have their bedrooms tidied by then as this afternoon I'll be cleaning all of those with them.

    Morning all. Posting first and catching up after.

    I did yesterday's list but I don't think I posted it. I did all the bedrooms together on Wednesday so that's today covered. But I've made a sponge and some little fruit cakes. Made cottage pie for dinner. Then vacuumed right through downstairs.

    One load of washing out on the line, drying gradually.

    Going to try to catch up now, hope everyone's OK.

    Thanks for the get wells for BB. She 'went' in the garden this morning and it was much more solid so she had her bowl of plain cooked rice which went in about 5 seconds. Let's hope it passes through normally.
    Aww, bless her. Sending "happy tum" vibes for BB.:o Can I be nosy and ask what sort of dog she is? Fwiw, sometimes just a hot spell would give Penny-Dog a loose tum. Anyways, hoping BB is recovered now.

    I need to sit Mr LW down and get a meal plan done later; we've reached the end of what we had listed. I like to get his input, then at least I know I'm making something he'll like.:o It's egg salad tonight; he's already scraped and cut some spuds, so I'd better go and hard-boil some eggs in a moment. Then I guess I'd better crack on with the remainder of the spare room tasks, or I'll be another one mule-dodging.:D
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
  • Well bright start to the day with 4xwm and TD, S&S of kitchen and bathroom. Car to garage and sorted (phew ..thought it was going to be another expense, but easy fix thank goodness). All beds changed, list of jobs left for ds1+2. Off to throw things in a bag as Oh and i are off to Falmouth for weekend to catch up with DD who is helping at a sailing camp there.
    I've really enjoyed my first week flying .....I'll be back Monday. DR desperate covered in paperwork, must sort, file, shred, reply, clear shred some more, breathe, next week.
    Have a great weekend all of you and best wishes to PigPen with imminent (hopefully) arrival.

    Bye for now

    Bad news on the MOT front - the passenger side seal has rusted so needs welding, and it's going to cost £140. That means after the service etc, I'm looking at £300.:eek:

    Also tried to get into a pair of my jeans today and found they are too tight to do up. Need to lose some weight now, and I'm feeling miserable, as it looks like I'm also going to have to start looking for a new car as apparently the other side is going to need doing next year too. With the wedding to save for, it's an expense I really don't need!:(
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Pollybear is spot on - but to be really precise, she's an English springer spaniel.

    Hugs on the MOT Sexym - good news is that mine's passed - just needed two new wiper blades. I can pick it up on my way home from work.

    Happy anniversary Triker

    Boys room now done just need to hoover. I thought DS2's glasses would be there but no sign. So his b*tt is being kicked outside to check the grass, i've ordered replacements but it's so :mad::mad::mad:.

    It's raining here today so no washing out on the line and the stuff i put out yesterday is soaking. Tiding the boys room has pulled out another basket of washing.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
