Rhys and DS2 both have a cough this morning so i'll get them dosed up before the school run.
DD seemed to have an alright day yesterday, the madam was too busy trying to annoy DS1 who went and told on her so playground staff told him if she went near him he was to tell.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 :j0 -
Best of luck Valli - thats a lot to ask of parents IMHO.
DH is away, and so the mice will play....Need to find out what the boys want to do, and then work out what to fill the last of the skip with as I will have had it a week tomorrow and it needs to be collected.
Quick cup of tea and get dressed. WM is already on, but I want to wash our bedding too so I can have nice clean sheets all to myself.

Good morning :beer:
Thank you all for your birthday wishes :A and especially hex2- it must have taken all day to make that beautiful penguin cake :T
DH took us all out for dinner last night, and we stopped to admire the time at 20:10 on 20/10 2010FLYLADY MEET
I've checked with a couple of you, so who wants to meet at Cas-Vegas, West Yorks on Monday 1 November. PM me if you're interested, and we'll sort a time and place :j:rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0 -
Tomorrow though.. ugh! Childrens rooms. I've a play room and my girls' room to gut. I have a feeling I will only be doing one room this week though. They really are disaster rooms
This sounds so much like my house. I have four little darlings and each one of their rooms is a complete nightmare! I had done my bedroom at the weekend so didn't have to do that yesterday. However as it was Wednesday, all kids off school and various activities to take them to, so didn't get much done. DD2 however said she wanted to tidy her room, but I had to help. We did manage to clear the floor and tidy her bed up which is a start, just clothes to put away today.
Going to concentrate on DS room today as it also doubles up as the toy room. Perhaps you join with me in a few HHC's today Delicious and see how much we get done today!
Anyone for a HHC at 9am?DD1 born May 2002, DD2 born Dec 2005, DS born Dec 2008. Baby due May 2010! TEAM PINK!!

Good morning everyone,
It's really cold here this morning but the sun is shining and it looks as though it will be a really nice day.
Thursday ~ Childrens pits, spare or neglected rooms! - DONE
DD all grown up and flown the nest. This room only needed an S&S and the floor hoovering which I did yesterday with the master bedroom!:j:j
I'll try and do the study today and the bathroom tomorrow as they need a day each I think.
Also have the supermarket run to do this afternoon - deep joy;)
