Right here goes I am sure I can manage all levels and extras except ironing - as I don't do ironing:D
Although I need to do Wheelie bins as all 3 are grotty but that will have to wait till bin day on wednesday - bit difficult to wash out a half full wheelie bin!!
I will enlist childrens help when I said I have trouble getting them to keep their rooms tidy it isn't because they don't help but because they don't spend much time at home. The two girls are both gymnasts who compete regionally, so what with their training regime and after school clubs etc they only just about have time to get homework done, so what time they do have off I like them to play/ do something together and be normal - if that makes sense. But now holidays are here and with the week before Easter no training - they will help a bit more:)

Evenin' all,
Thank you for the thread.
Busy day in the garden, cutting down my huge honeysuckle which had suffered over the winter. I'm hoping it'll sprout up from the bottom again. Blackbirds, blue tits & sparrows have lost their perch for the time being, I feel very guilty!

Evening all
Thanks to pigpen and the Toots gang. I have to say I was expecting a Piggers is in a bad mood list for tomorrow but its ok, theres no tidying the loft or garage to get everyone in a tizzy :rotfl:. Am sending virtual pork and tomato sausages to cheer you up.
Glad the move went smoothly Toots and I hope you are very happy in your new home.
Well I managed to get everything done that I wanted to today and managed to get to work on time and with a packed lunch rather than the sushi I usually stop for at the garage on the way. Caame home and DS had cooked a perfect Roast dinner bless him. French student all collected and she is lovely and the same age as DD so hopefully she will enjoy the company rather than giving out attitude for a change.
Need to find my way to bed now as need to be up again at 6 for another day at the grind.
See you all tomorrow with hopefully some of the listy done
Love and hugs to allMortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!0 -

Thank you to FCC for the thread - I'm in again this week. Have explained to DS1 that he's going to have to help more, and he seems fine with that (until he actually has to do stuff).
Still waiting for a good moment to talk to DH.
I'm going to have a cuppa, bag up the hot corss buns from costco's, put the cat out, start the DW and then we're off to bed.
Good night. x0 -
