Welldone everyone:j
I still haven't caught up on reading the thread but I have been productive for most of the day.
I walked to the shop with the toddler and got a few bits and pieces we needed rather than go tonight with OH and buy all sorts of rubbish:cool:
I've been out in the [STRIKE]garden[/STRIKE] jungle and done some more sorting and have now got loads of stuff ready to take to the tip.
My kitchen is tidy, my sink is shiney, but the living room looks like a bomb has hit it:mad: Toddlers Grrrr!
Oh well I could have been sat on my backside (which happens a lot:o) all afternoon so nevermind.
I have work tomorrow so won't be able to do much then:(
:eek: Just realised I needed to make something to reheat for tomorrow's dinner as I don't have much time after work:eek:Good Enough Club member number 20 -
Typical, the washing finished and it started raining, so I've had to hang it up indoors.
Well, I have to thank everyone here for the motivation to get the curtains up. They'd been sitting in the hall since I washed them about 3 weeks ago. They're now back up!
Just need to get the bread in the tin and do the hoovering now.0 -
I swear my kids are here to just to upset me this week....mind you im so emotional at the min it really doesnt take much! Ive been out running errands, voting and visiting family all day so ive only been home 20mins. I went inot the kitchen to make the kids a sandwich before i start dinner and my 1 year old has pulled the dining room chair over to the window, climbed up and pulled a copper jar i had on the windowsill over, so i now have about £30 worth of 2 and 1p coins all over
.....i went to go make a start picking them up and she went into the kitchen and emptied a full box (only opened this morning) of cornflakes all over my floor.
So i lost my temper, put her up in her room to play and sent the other two out while i calm down and stop crying! Then i came downstairs to find a trail of school clothes dumped over the floor from where the kids have got changed, the cupboards open in the kitchen the pop left open on the side, the freezer door wide open and my ironing pile knocked over so all over the floor! Is there any wonder my hoiuse is always a mess when i have kids like this.....i just wanna run away and hope someone will come take pity and do it all for me, then swap my kids for ones thast have a bit of respect for the house and me0 -
Right i've had a bath n cleaned bathroom n loo, washed up and swept the floor, and have made a mental shopping list;):D Oh and watered all the plants and veggies:D:D"You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf"

The trouble with this thread is that whilst I'm reading my book I'm also thinking of what I should be doing - you are so bad for me lolProjects made for craft fair - 40

the shove kind of worked...the dishwasher is done. ds arrived home so the hoovering will have to wait until he goes up to bed as he is terrifed of it"I have learnt that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one""You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”Maya Angelou0
