    Have managed to get the bedroom done plus some bits of the living room.

    The builder has just rang to say he will be coming to do the loft hatch tomorrow. So an early start to get stuff into my room once Im up.

    Ive rearranged the kitchen a bit today. I have a little offshoot with a big window.It gets the afternoon sun. So have moved stuff out of there and been sitting in there reading this afternoon when the wind started to get chilly outside.

    Toots Enjoy the concert.

    I'd suggest another Henry.. though I might be more inclined to get a George as he can suck up water as well as dirt!!

    Girls in bed.. boys clearing their pit of a room or I am binning it all
    1 binbag filled of Tiddles out grown stuff.. I'll go through her drawers properly tomorrow and list it all to be rehomed..
    I have a list of stuff I need for the baby.. amounts to 3 things though 1 of those is for Squeak so her can be moved down one.

    I think the ealy pregnancy tiredness has passed and I am in fling mode.. Let's hope I make a better job of it than I did with Squeak when I just decorated everything within and inch of its life!!

    Oh.. curtain pole.. that's what else I need to buy.. and I'll get DD2's curtains sewn tonight I think.. if I can find a decent height able to work on.. my old one collapsed last year when he girl left it out in the rain.. gggrrrrr

    Boys room now emptied of a full basket of washing and a stuffed binbag of rubbish.. DS3 now hates me becaue I made him throw away empy loo rolls ubes, sweets wrappers, last years easter bonnet and the back off his advent calendar!!!!!!!

    He is currently screaming the house down because I said they are vacuuming in there tomorrow!! AND.. he had to put his clothes away.

    I fixed DS2's drawer as he had popped the bottom out.. i didn't realise he had so many clothes.. I bet 90% of them don't fit so I need to go through those too! which may be Tuesdays job!

    and another item leaves me forever
    *waves bye bye to pink curtains*

    and it's cash on collection, too

    this week I shall mostly be e baying - when I've eaten me daily frog, that is :rotfl:

    oh and sorting out the car insurance although it looks like renewing with my current provider is the cheapest option...even with Quidco. That will be a first! I have NEVER stayed loyal before...even when i used a broker.
    Mind you I might well be changing my emergency cover...
