    Had a lovely evening at the Carol Service - DD got given her 2 year badge for Beavers which is the highest award they can have and she stood there grinning away. Another very proud moment for this very proud Mummy!!!

    Here's my jobs for tomorrow, I find it incredibly helpful writing it all down (got the memory span of a goldfish):

    WM/DW/make beds
    Walk Pip
    Clean out chooks
    Ironing
    Get wrapping (can't put it off any longer :o)
    Make note of who we still have to get presents for so when me and DH go shopping Weds pm we'll know who we're looking for!
    Get Pip's meds from vet
    Do CBT work on website
    Bit more dot to dotting
    Sort out DS's old stuff for Robbie
    Charity shop?
    Collect DS from nursery
    DD to school for 5.30 ready for school play
    Fellowship group when DH back from Wales - 8.00ish?

    DH doing my hot chocolate - see he is well trained - and then I'm off to bed. Night night all x

    One of the little people has poured water all over my bed! It is soaked, duvet, sheet pillow and mattress.:eek:

    Firstly I thought the cat was being a naughty puss but it's definatley water and loads of it. the duvet is actually dripping.

    DH is out at the pub watching Man U v Arsenal. He will be home soon. Our bedroom is so cold as it is above the garage and has 3 outside walls. I think there will be alot of snuggling tonight to keep warm as the summer 4 tog duvet has come out of the understairs cupboard.

    Why me??????

    Oh dear.... Well 1 footy team won, and 1 footy team lost. So I'm not sure if that means your DH will be in a good mood or a bad mood?
