OK, so I won't re-post the list from earlier, I didn't get to cross anything else off. I managed one wm load, a nap, feeding the kids, washing up, and half an hour of telly. Today wasn't the best for flying around here!
Tomorrow I will be more focussed!

Thanks for all the good wishes and prayers for my friend, I'm keeping everything crossed for her. With 3 parents at school already having tumours of the head and 2 sadly passing away within the past 6 months I am hoping that this proves to be nothing serious.
Ocado delivery has just arrived so I'll put away the bits I need to and then I'm heading to bed. DH is away so the whole bed to myself, I know it is mean but I love having the bed to myself.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

amazed to wake up to find the boy had slept in his own bed till 6.15:j:j:j (until he came creeping into mine smelling of poo that is!) so I\ve had an early start, emptied the DW, got a WM load on and fed and watered us both. Just going to start on the sarnies while the others snooze, S&S the kitchen and start the listy. Got a racing around morning again but should be home this afternoon to get on with things. I've got to finish putting lustre dust on all the million daisies and butterflies I've made for little sis wedding cake. ALso need to make the buttercreams and attempt to start to quilt the ginormous quilt which is now all layered up, basted and ready to go. I'm a bit nervous.0
