Denise, please can we have a picture of the kitties? They do mostly grow out of the pooing fairly quickly. One of mine likes being sick under our bed at strange times in the night though....

Surrounded by boxes, not a lot of cleaning going on, mostly packing and being tired. Expect mad flurry of cleaning activity Tuesday afternoon followed by manic cleaning of new place Wednesday.

Well I manaed most of the list, to my utter amazement, with a little help from my DS today I did loads. Also managed to do the usual Mam things like keep the boys fed and watered, did nearly forget to feed the dog, poor fella awww!! Anyway the rest will have to be added to the lists for the rest of the week, which I expected anyway, I didn't think I would do it all.

Tomorrow is Dash About Like a Headless Chicken day so here goes with the list, doubt I will have time tomorrow

[STRIKE]Kids up, dressed, fed, lunches made and to school ON TIME
Fill slow cooker whilst sorting kids so tea is cooking while we are out
Send eBay parcels
Dog out & fed
Nurse appointment
Fill car and take to charity shop
Got to Spa centre and book 4 spas for Xmas presents
Buy 5 more presents (no idea what to get them, argh!)
Model shop for parts for DPs car (didn't have the parts oh dear)
Kids collected
Son back to school, and collected, after getting changed for Xmas party[/STRIKE]
Wrap all the presents & label
Write family cards out
Deliver neighbours cards
Kids fed, bathed etc
Sort freezer & list
Sort fridge, clean it & list
Meal plans
Shopping list for next week

Supermarket first thing
Shift garden stuff and some plants in trailer
Get rid of dirty washing mountain
Do some ironing
Clean house - new people are coming tonight to drop some garden stuff off and look at water stop taps and other exciting stuff
Do some more packing - not a lot more to do really, boxing everything non daily use when I de cluttered prior to selling has paid off
wait in for ds1's much wanted golden coin maker to be delivered

Slightly depressed re-reading that, tired to start with and ds2 got up at 5.30am. I am sat here fully dressed, with the washing machine on and with plans to go and clean the kitchen next. What happened to my life ?

oh, and I really must buy my OH a present at some point, he has had his main one but he needs something to open on the day.
