Well I've put a bedding set in the WM and went to get the stuff out of the TD that had been in there a few days (I thought it was dry), and it looks like the TD had been turned off before it had dried, so it all stinks! :mad: (Wonder if Moon turned if off to plug one of his bits of machinery in?) Not only that, but there was a tissue amongst it all (guessing from Moon's trouser pocket - he is meant to check them before he puts them in the laundry basket). Have got it in a basket waiting to go back in the WM when I've hung out the sheets. Really annoyed, cos wanted to get the laundry basket a bit emptier, and I won't have enough time now.
Courgette cake has been baked, and smells really nice. Fingers crossed it tastes nice too.
Off to see if sheets have finished yet.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170 -

I'm filthy now but need to hoover and get some more potatoes from the garden and clean out the bunnies. Then i'll have a shower and get changed.
This afternoon i need to

Clean out rabbits
Dig up some more potatoes

I've cleaned the bathroom, towels and cleaning cloths are just finishing in the wm.Bathroom really needs a good going over with cillit bang - dh's t-gel shampo makes such a mess of the tiles, but I'm not doing it at the moment so either he can or perhaps when my mum is here she can help. Few food bits for the week ahead bought. Now I may go and snooze for an hour. Bit fed up and weepy today
probably just tired. Dh is apparently going to dyson round later.
the weekends go far too quicky, at least only 3 weeks left at work, minus the bank holiday monday. So 14 days, probably I'll be at home at least 2 of those. Have physio on wed and will see if they think I should still actually be working or not!Mum to gorgeous baby boy born Sept 2010:j0 -

Afternoon all
Outlaws have gone so peace can return. I am a dreadfully hostess and hate house guests overnightI need my space.
Only flying planned for the rest of the day is emptying the DW (delegating that to DS2) and some ironing this evening. Back on track next week starting upstairs.
Serena hope you had a fab holiday
Hope I'm glad you got on well at the hospital
Rach - hugs for you - hormones!
Lady Liberty - spoons for you once I empty the dishwasher x
Off for an hour of tidying up the flower beds.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
