2 more loads in the WM
2 empty laundry baskets upstairs
2 binbags for charity shop.. and.. I've had aa binbag of odd socks rolling around for almost 2 years and I just made OH take it off me and put it in the bin!

Need to water plants and vacuum hallway and stairs.. but school run time now..

KH picking these up tomorrow supposedly.. he hasn't let them down so far this week..

Girls have some mess to clean up in their room and DD2 needs to sort her floor again.. and the boys have another wash basket to fill.. and if DS1 thinnks I am collecting his full laundry basket from the middle room he is very much mistaken!

Hi Toots, I've missed you my love!

Going to really quickly vacuum upstairs after I get DD from school. I tend to vacuum right through on a Monday and again on a Friday rather than doing it each day. Went mad with DH on Saturday; he was in the garden, got muddy and proceeded to walk through the house dropping mud everywhere. And THEN (sorry to shout) he stomped all over the clean cream bathroom rug I'd just put down the night before :mad: What is it with men? When I spoke he said it was too much bother to take his shoes off. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Done my typing job and have been brave as bid for a freelance job typing for another inventory company; I need more work than I'm getting. We'll have to see what happens.

Oh this will make you laugh. I went to Mr S after lunch and DS announced in a very loud voice 'when I touch my w***y it tickles; it really really does Mummy'. Cheeky little chap!

Well I got sent home at lunchtime - only stayed that long because we'd got an observation second lesson. Went to the chemist who's given me a supposedly fast-acting throat spray - had 2 doses so far and it's done nothing. I'm freezing cold, got a banging head and a temperature of 101. Of course DH isn't home tonight.

Anyway, spent the afternoon lying on the bed, kids are now home and I have no idea what I'm going to do for tea - don't think the kids would be too happy if I said I wasn't doing anything.

Flyingwise, I brought the washing in off the line when I came in and I've made a couple of phone calls.
