Ok, not read thread so hugs and all that (hope to later though ).
My list, in no specific order:

1. clothes off airers and put away/ironing pile (did a lot of ironing this week, will hold off a few days until I do any more)
2. make cheese sauce
3. make beds
4. knit more of cardigan sleeve!
5. be thankful, after the crash in Cork yesterday I think we all need to be thankful for our family and friends and remember who we love!
6. meal plan for next week
7. fumigate DS!
8. WM on and hang up

Ok, think that is it. Off to shower me and DS before starting anything else (though I have made pancakes and washed up afterward already!)

Morning lovelies
There is a rather strange yellow thing in the sky today and the sky is a lovely shade of blue!!! Could this be the start of Spring? If it is then uh ohhhh means Ive got sh1tloads of spring cleaning to do!!

KH has just text saying he is on his way to collect the children. He lives 2 hours away so will leave it an hour then text him back telling him he isnt having them till next weekend when they finish for half term!! His partners children break up today but mine dont and I did tell him the school holidays were different!!! Bl00dy waste of space!

Landlady will be round shortly for her rent cheque, she did call round for it on Wednesday but I couldnt find my cheque book!! Ive since found it and written them out already so she doesnt have to stay long haha.

Today is the start of my transformation, I have a tooth missing and it makes me paranoid so I never smile, but later today I will no longer have the gap!!:j (Dreading the dentist though but I know it will be worth it)

Valentines day on Monday so I have booked to have my hair and nails done, hopefully it will be more of the "I Love Me" transformation. Ive decided im going back to blonde :eek:

Anyway off to create a work in progress list.

Hugs spoons and sticks to all

pjjjx

I have three children, a boy aged 7 and twin girls aged 3 yrs. I am decorating his bedroom, so he is in with me at the moment. Nearly done but the rest is in need of help ! Never mind, at least he will have a nice bedroom.

1. Wash up
2. Hirer a hitman
3. Declutter OH clothes with a pair of sharp scissors
4. Slash tyres
5. Chuck OH Coffee machine out of the bedroom window.

Have a good day
