    Me either Toots!! She's still in her room, emerging periodically to be given another task. I told her that I felt very hurt by her behaviour. And that I'm not interested in how her friends speak to their parents, but that I'm not having disrespect from her or anyone else.

    Anyway.... It'll do her no harm to have Mum be disappointed in her for a while, she normally basks in the warm waters of Mum's pride! :D

    Right...

    I'm cheesed off because I wanted to boil wash the children's school polo shirts with some bleach. I loaded up the WM with powder, and soda crystals for the pre-wash... looked up for the bleach... but... I've run out *irritated smilie* So, I can't get that wash on the go till I've been out to the shops.

    DD3's case is mostly packed. I'm going to get cracked on with DD2 and her stuff now.

    ooohlots of old faces - welcome back..you haven't missed much;) apparently I am famous I was in a film (see avvy:rotfl:)

    I am not best pleased. I have been into work this morning and the children have had breakfast while watching tv and left dishes in kithen

    I am being licked by Jynx who decided to explore the garden while I ran out and rescued the washing. I realised she was out in the rain and went to find her - she was crying...first time she has cried since we got her and is all affectionate right now.

    So the plan is

    Monday - Sitting Room and Hallway
    Level One

    Open the windows and turn on some music!
    Wipe and water the plants
    Declutter the chairs, floor and fireplace
    Level Two
    Vacuum the floor now it is visible
    Dust the fireplace.. does the fire need a service before winter? or the chimney sweeping?.. sort it then!

    Wash smelly soft furnishings.
    Clean any glass and mirrors and shiny things
    Level Three
    Vacuum under any furniture you can.. please don't injure yourselves!
    Wipe sofas and dusty places
    HHC in the porch
    Extras
    1. Dust shelves and ledges and furry bits
    2. Put dried, ironed aired washing away
    3. bank spreadsheet - do it NOW VALLI!
    4. HHI
    Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY

    Afternoon all,

    We went to the hospital and then i got in the wrong lane at a roundabout coming back and ended up doing a 20 mile detour.:eek: We've also been to McD's and i was going to get a few bits more of school stuff and take the trousers back but i couldn't face it after that.:cool:

    Toots good luck with making your escape.
