Hi everyone
Hope you are all keeping well, sorry but not had time to read the thread
Thanks to the ladies for the thread

I have spent 2 days sorting out the kiddies rooms and have removed............11 yes thats right, 11 bags for charity, dump or the loft - they both have very small rooms so its made a huge difference. DD helped to do her room and she is very proud of herself as its quite hard for her to let go of stuff. DS has no idea what has gone from his room as I did it whilst he was otherwise occupied [thank god for the Wii!!] and then I re-arranged his room so everything has moved - sneaky or what hehe.

Next room on the hit list is the Dining Room but that involves alot of ironing and I do mean alot!!

Swimming tomorrow
Whisnade Zoo on Wednesday
Pictures on Thursday
!!!!!! all on Friday lol

Hugs to all

Toots - hope that your move went well

LW - read your post - have a hi 5 and well done on handling it so well - be proud of yourself

Sorry I didn't get back before.

After that I've been to HB as I needed some stuff for Beavers, dropped DD off at her friends, had tea, been to Beavers and now I'm home again.

My mate fetched me some blister plasters this morning so I can now just about walk on my feet.

I must get some jobs done tomorrow though as I've got a pile of dishes to do including Sunday's as well as other stuff as I haven't really been able to do much today.

Please remind me on to wear my uniform on Wednesday as I don't normally for Cubs but I need to this week as they're short staffed.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeek just downed my first glass of wine in 10 minutes, DS3 has been trying to say the least and now DS1 is in and moaning - low blood sugar I expect.

I hate kissing. Kids fine, DH if I'm in the mood anybody else - my mother, inlaws, friends etc absolutely n way do not even think about it an don't hug me either, I want my own space.

Oh think I might need food after being at cricket since 5pm - flying very limited today.
