vanilla

Thanks again all.

I've got my pizza dough out, BM on again for a loaf, 12 banana muffins made as well as 8 vanilla ones. :drool:

Rhys still sleeping poor pet has the cold and cough and he hates taking anything for it.

Kids have been blackmailed into sorting their rooms which they've done, washing nearly all done and uniform all drying.

My sister is to be up for 7 and then i'll go and see hubby and see if i can sort out the mess with his meds before he goes up the walls. :mad:

Right shop for milk as soon as BM finishes, can't have tea without milk.:eek:

Thanks rach one of her presents is a new purse that I am going to put an emergency £20 in and I would like to add some taxi numbers. She is going to uni.

This baby is driving me nuts today she simply will not sleep anywhere other than on me.. I have a whole hovel to clean (children back to school Tuesday/Wednesday and I'm in big time.. and OH can help too!!) I am so fed up of the mess in here!!!

OH doing dinner

I managed to fold and get the children to put away some laundry while the baby screamed at daddy.. and I swept half the kitchen and unloaded/reloaded the dw.

I have got Jacob some duplo cars/trucks for xmas and some bits for Tabitha.. need to sort my bunch asap. DD1 and Freja sorted.

I have a few next bits to return too, DS2 had a selection of trainers to try and the rest are going back.

School bags are sorted.

KH complained about having to spend £100 on clothes for the children before the could go away.. I ignored the comment but maybe if he had paid me some money this year or helped cover DD1's prom dress and the uniforms, they would be kitted out!

AnW'sMum

Huge hugs for you vanilla hope everything is sorted for DH quickly.

We have been to see Toy Story 3, kids really enjoyed it even though it was a bit sad at the end. The dad in the row in front of us was seen wiping away the odd tear, thought he hadn't been noticed :rotfl:

Called at Matalan for PE shorts and came out almost £100 lighter :eek: But we did get some other uniform bits, underwear for them both, a trilby for W :rotfl: he looks tres chic in it oh and I got some shades to replace those W broke while we were on hols.

Usual Sat night chinese with Mum and Dad shortly, after checking up on Miss A and W's farms! (strawberries withered because we were out earlier!)

well hhc at 1pm migrated into a 5 hour declutter of a shopping basket i had dumped paperwork into. Now it is all sorted and either filed or shredded. Gave Dh 1 ...yes 1 small pile of paperwork to sort to do with the mortgage and he is stomping around like a 2 year old:shocked:. I have managed to sort all the rest ... and it took me 5 hours. MEN!!

Anyway all sorted now so I can cross of list.

whoops, OH has just been in to say the shredding (from his miniscule pile) is taking so long would it be better to light the chiminea and burn it ....response "well you can do but although it saves you work it creates more for me as your clothes will end up smelling all smoky and so that'll be another pile of washing for me to do" he skulked off quietly to continue the shredding:T:T
