Hello!!

I think this is just such a brilliant idea and will join you next week! I need as much help and motivation as I can :-)

kittie dont wait just jump in now - every minute counts!!!:D will send you a pm shortly anyway to help you get started.
toochoosey i was beginning to think you had left the planet - hope you have had a good holiday - its nice to see you.
boddy hope your friend is ok and the investigation is making progress.
pigpen thats great about the earlier appointment - and yes if they go to after school club then it takes all the worry away. good thinking!!
serena - will be keeping fingers crossed for DS1 - that would be great - the same thing happened to one of the volunteers here and she ended up as assistant manager!
Quillion nice to see you honey - hope you are doing ok.:D

had a lovely evening at the BBQ - my job was to entertain the puppy and keep her out of everybody's food - she is a 14 week Lhaso apso - just a bundle of fluff!

off to make a cuppa then bed i think!

love and hugs to everyone especially ladyL and Diva.

Mums partner has had his op, we wont know anymore until tomorrow he is comfortable and sleeping he didn't come out of theatre until just after 7pm and as it takes mum an hour and half to get there visiting ends at 8 there was no point her going tonight so she is going to get there for tomorrow afternoon visiting at 2 and then we will know more.

Not a lot more done today other than bathing kids doing the dailies cooking tea and making sure all clothes are ready for tomorrow.

Serena : glad today wasn't too traumatic. Like you we have 3 Insets this week, bit depressing that we have got a whole year ahead of us from Monday with just 2 days to look forward to:mad:

I teach Science and ICT to KS3+4. As I'm the only one for these subjects I have to do all Sow myself .... at least its done the way I want them:T

I left todays task list for ds2 and dd to do part of, guess which bits they managed ....

Wednesday ~ Bathroom and Study/Pc Area
Level One
Clean floors in these rooms
Clean baths, toilets and sinks
Level Two
[STRIKE]Clear any clutter from desk
Dust PC and desk and wipe off those cup rings!! (baby wipes are fantastic for this!!)
Wipe keyboard and mouse (these usually have more germs on than your toilet so important).. And your house phone.. they must be just as vile..
[/STRIKE]Level Three
Wipe down tiles in bathroom
Clean shower screen/curtain if you have one/if required
Clean the brushes/dust box/filters on the vacuum cleaner!!!! .. make sure they are completely dry before using it though.. I don’t want anyone electrocuted!
Extras

• Sort through those half empty bottles or ones with only a dribble left and decant into one bottle and recycle the rest!!
• Wash your bathroom mats etc
• Sort a wardrobe or part of, a drawer or set of drawers making sure it has what needs to be in it and any 'extras' are put where they should be
• Spend 15 minutes shining mirrors and picture frames

well at least they did some. I'll print of tomorrows list in a minute and see if they do the easy ones again!

Have spent the evening baking as its a shared luch at work tomorrow. I have made courgette muffins, from recipe alluded to elsewhere in a flylady fred, fruit loaf, raspberry and white chocolate mufins and a huge bakewell to be sliced up. Should feed a few.
And I cleared the kitchen up after:T

Will catch up on bathroom jobs tomorrow.

Hello everyone, no I didn't get lost in the metro centre but been very busy

mummyslittleboy thank you for that, I will have to remember the letter we've been given by camhs for the funding

Well, 1.5 days to go for deadline and assignment far from finished, bother! Unfortunately ended up being very busy so kept putting it off but I have managed to get ALL the uniform stuff that comes from a 'normal' shop. DS1 has 6 shirts and 6 prs of trousers now so I'll be only ironing once a week. PHEW! Must find that iron

DP is most impressed his car has got in a magazine, TWICE. He's pretending he's not bothered but I can tell he's chuffed. Unfortunately while trying to sort the steps for my car today he snapped a bolt so work stopped, we went out for dinner with his Dad to look at villa photos for next year http://www.holidaylettings.co.uk/rentals/mazarron/101320 looks really nice. Think we're having 'upstairs' when we stay. Then went to sort a few other things out we've ordered for 2 of the clubs, by the time we got home it was 9.30pm & I realised I had no pack ups stuff so off to the shop I went. I'm shattered!

Kids are out for a couple of hours tomorrow again on another trip so after I get back from Newcastle for parts (I hate driving through there and will get lost ) it's help him with the car then assignment time as I'm at flamingoland all day on Friday. Arranged to take my niece and nephew too (spare free places) so will be lovely to see them both.

Flying might end up waiting until they go back to school next Wednesday at this rate :eek:barely managing the dailies.

Right, pop off time, night night all (((hugs))) for those who need one, so many of you at the minute which is not good at all. Sleep well x x x
