Toodle

Morning all x

I'm working my way through mon/tues/weds and the extras today as my upstairs was blitzed a few days ago, including emptying cupboards and cleaning just about everything (downstairs where everyone sees is a complete tip but upstairs sparkles lol)

I fell asleep at 8.30pm last night (the first night my toddler's been asleep before 11pm lol) so was wide awake at 4.30am....So far this morning I've swept the downstairs floors, picked numerous toys up, put a load in the WM and last nights load in the TD. Next on the list is straightening the living/room and washing up, though not until I've had my coffee-I can't see colours until my third cup!

I got my new hoover yesterday, a Vax V2000C and so far *touches wood* it seems brilliant...it's actually shocking how much my old one was missing-I had to empty it quite a bit yesterday *blushes*

Thankyou everyone for the lovely warm welcomes I recieved, I'm really looking forwards to getting organised...if anyone has any tips on how to get through copious amounts of washing I'd appreciate it, as I was without a WM for a while and it's mounted up, I keep putting loads through but never seem to clear it, if anything it's breeding!

:j:jDS1 passed his job trial!:j:j

I have 2 working teens!

DD1 has cold feet about her A level results and is refusing to go and collect them.:cool:

DH went early this morning and made enough noise and light to wake me up.

Sunny here but I don't think it will last for long.

Today I have to:-

Buy waterproof for self
Give blood
Alarm being serviced 9am
Take DS2 to football training
Get DS1 shoes for 6th form
Finish ironing and begin packing
Speak to NN about feeding cat/fish while we are away.
Book DD1 train home from Cornwall so she can start work on 27th.

I'm sure there is more but I've only had 1 cup of tea and my brain won't work!

Morning all

Sunnyish here today.

Cleaned the bathroom at 10:30 last night - sometimes being fedup has it's benefits.

Hoping to get a visit from AF today as I think that'd make me feel a whole load better.

Washing on, DW emptied. Plan is to finish all the dusting and check the online bank accounts. Seeing a friend this morning and this afternoon but might fit HHG in between.
