well i got me a helper! my next door neighbour who is 13 is coming over to help clean as she is bored

She must be REALLY bored! Teenagers don't do anything helpful unless its for cash or out of boredom! Or maybe thats just my teenager!:rotfl:

Never quite managed the ironing earlier but will try and do it when kids in bed (very early!). I ended up sorting some photos out for Christmas presents. Took forever for them to upload as high res professional ones but they are AMAZING! Spent over 50 quid on pix but so worth it. After Christmas going to order myself a big canvas of the 3 of them. Whatever money i have in my jar when opened will determine the size!:rotfl:

I'm really not as organised this year as usual so need to pull my finger out as want it done by end of week! :eek:

natty68 yes i'm up for that challenge!! I go to my parents in the morning so would be good to come back to a tidy house. xx

Fife council have been a bit more organised and have already closed the schools for tomorrow. Shame I have to go to Aberdeen, we could have had a nice day at home. OH is going to try and finish the Christmas shopping for me while I am away

Aye, the Perthshire ones are a bit more organised today too. Children are very very happy about it!

I've made my calender up - Its two doors long (portrait style) but has EVERYTHING on it except flying lists Will organise the Christmas stuff on to it when I know what I need to do. The decorating is the worst, realised I might not have the time to do everything I wanted before we break up from school:eek: Fortunately some of the livingroom jobs can be done of an evening but not when DD has Brownies. Hmmmm it is a great way to keep warm & exercise though I might even loose some weight....well I can hope :rotfl::rotfl:

Off to get a chippy tea, then I'm going to fly in the kitchen (going to race DD, see if I can have my fly list done before she's done her HHC of violin practice ) then I'll iron while watching a DVD

Laters :wave:
