    Hi again,

    I've been to Parent's evening, Ds2's behaviour is fantastic but his writing needs some work, he can barely write his name properly yet. The complete opposite to Ds1, his was always awful behaviour but brilliant work.:cool:

    HHC at 4.00 anyone? I've just had a message from someone wanting to come over and look at some jewellery. Her house is immaculate and mine is not so i've got a feeling a mad cleaning spree will be coming on soon.

    Nicki nail varnish remover gets stickers off, it's fab x

    Not done much, DD1 and future son-in-law visited, had a phone call from potential customer and I'm going to see him/the house on Thursday :cool: and that's pretty much it.

    Going to sort tea out in a min and bring the washing in.

    Have had a really good productive day today and even walked the dog and cleaned out the chooks! Just a bit left from today's list -

    Monday ~ Kitchen and Dining room
    Mop floor
    HHI


    I'll do these this evening once kids are in bed. DH is out so I'll have the house to myself to potter :T! Then I'm planning to do some more knitting; only got the right front, both sleeves, collar and edging to do and I'm done - should be finished in 2 months I hope, fingers crossed.

    Had a breakthrough earlier as realised I'm trying to do too much; was booked in for a MS job tomorrow but cancelled it; at the end of the day money isn't everything is it.

    Everyone has done really well today so here's to another good day tomorrow.
