    Hi missy :)

    Well i've been out all morning at my friends house, just read back what you've been upto its made me tired just reading it lol

    I started cleaning a kitchen cupboard out this morning managed the st 2 shelves but now cant reach the last one so will have to wait for OH :) I also loaded dishwasher and washed up a few bits before I set off for the school run.

    So now for today i'm gonna

    have a hoover round downstairs (want to keep on top of this)
    Maybe some ironing :) (again to keep on top of, its not that bad at the min)
    empty the dryer and put washing away

    Gonna have a rest before I do any of this though, cause i'm tired and just had maccaroni cheese for dinner need to let that settle first.

    I know what you mean about the wind its wild!!

    Hey bella, didn't really have much of a snooze just sort of laid there for a bit. Really need to go to tesco but I know I'll end up putting it off until tomorrow when I have to go to the dentist :(

    Just hung some more stuff on the line, it is now really sunny!! stupid weather.

    Just made myself a cuppa and contemplating my to do list for later.

    Need to hoover bedroom and landing
    Hoover stairs, hallway and living room
    finish tidying landing
    sort out bedside cabinet drawer
    sort out under bed

    Not too taxing, am pretty sure I can get it all done this evening :)

    well i've picked DS up, came home, made him a snack and emptied the dishwasher, and thats me done for the day.

    I feel completely wiped out, i'm aching and could sleep for england. Need to wait for OH to ring me, go pick him up and get petrol. I have taken steak out the freezer for tea but really cant be bothered with it :( I might wake up a bit once OH gets home.

    You've done really well with all your housework today you should be very proud of yourself :)
