    My list for this week.
    Sew lining on front hall curtains. (will have to wait until i get lining)
    Sort stuff for tip and bring to tip.
    Bring christmas box in and put in attic.
    Make a list of christmas pressies and birthdays (7 between November and December) Started
    Find a nice rug for kitchen.
    Price floor for hall.

    Cut hedges.
    Put DD's pictures up on wall.

    Haven't got near the bathroom yet, looked at the boys room and thought i might as well get it done. Toy box emptied out and all broken toys in the bin. :D

    Right cuppa and then i'll get on again.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j
  • Have made good headway since my last post, LR looking much better, although still some way to go. Hopefully I have broken the back of it and it'll be done by 4 when baby will want feeding again. Little monster screamed for his feed at 5 to 1, and now has taken 2 ounces and fallen asleep on my lap when he usually has 5, so I'm hoping he wont wake up demanding food while I'm in the middle of pulling the sofas out or something :/
    Better get back to it before he does wake up, need to declutter more paracetamol first, and will see if I can cross anything off list.
    So, there are these boys,
    They kinda stole my heart,
    They call me Mummy
