    Monrning flyers

    Piggers KH sounds like a full weight t*$$er. Sounds like he has no idea about how to speak to children and how their little minds work. Hugs.
    Not sure how much flying i will get done. Will keep up with dailys. Still sorting stuff out for as regards phone calls inbetween looking after DGC.
    DD3 had a birthday tea yesterday and all went well. Tidied up after and made sure room and kitchen put back in order before i finally sat down at 9.30 last night. Tired today though. Feel better than yesterday so lurgy must have realised i am too busy to be ill. (hope i don't regret saying that)
    Hugs to all who need them x

    Morning all,

    I have done 2 x HHI and got some chicken out of the freezer for a curry tonight.
    Out at 9 to vol job, then should be back at lunchtime. Might declutter a nap then i will crack on with the list.

    Happy Friday flying everyone

    Back later :wave:

    Tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift

  • DD2 decluttered to school, DS in the shower and shortly to be decluttered to work:D.

    WM on, DS's uniform from yesterday soaking (in w/up liquid and soda crystals).

    Have invited mum over on Sunday - so must finish sorting out her Christmas present - I've got all the stuff just got to wrap it!

    About to do an ironing marathon - so I'll check back in later!

    Pigpen - words fail me - hope the littlies slept OK!

  • piggers - :eek: words fail me. That's stupidity even by his standards.

    OK I have now got my OU tutor details - which means it really is going to start :rotfl:
    Which means I am going to have to get my wotsit in gear and stop faffing around.

    Also need to find decent inexpensive hotel in Manchester. Somewhere near Picadilly Station and the University buildings in Oxford Road.

    (
    also decided that if I am going to be spending 6 hrs on train I will need to get a lightweight laptop)

    Morning all

    Need to go to town today to post an ebay item, go to the bank etc. I just know the other item will be paid for whilst I'm out as that always seems to happen.

    Flying plan for today is dusting in DH office and cleaning the shower screen.

  • Morning everyone!

    The kitchen, bathroom, and our bedroom still looking all lovely and tidy and clean..I love it! Today I am going to make a massive dent in my lounge. I wish I could post before and after pictures because it really is a disgrace, and seems to be the general dumping ground for anything and everything by my lovely hubby...I have saved getting on for £200 in the grocery challenge this month so as a treat we are off to Ikea tomorrow to buy a storage thing to store all the kids toys in the lounge, and the moment they just get chucked in the general direction of "away" and it drives me mad!! That will make a massive difference. So hopefully by the end of the weekend my lounge will be all nice and lovely too :-)

    Right, better get cracking...have a good day everyone!
