    at 4 o'clock I rang the hairdresser to book appointments. Could you come now? she asked - she had an hours gap...I said if she could do DS then I would whip him to the dentist for his 4:45 check up while I left DD there to be cut. When I got back to the hairdressers she had time to do me, too - so we're all shorn! DD has a feather cut (for want of a better description) looks really nice.

    I have just dusted my glass display cabinet inside - it has glass doors so doesn't need dusting regularly (phew). From it I have taken a wedding cake topper and a table dec from the reception - why didn't I chuck them before?

    Maxonian - couple of people from work flew out to Hamburg this morning and they were fine, just emailed one of them so nothing major going on I think

    Thanks Hex - the plane has landed at Manchester. Should be home soon - we're only 25 minutes away :D
    Oven chips are in, eggs are whipped or whatever it is you do to them? Cats are fed, TD on, and hasty bin bag dance done. Tidied all my carp from the coffee table so it doesn't look like all I've done is watch tv and read :whistle:

    Sounds about right to me. I want to order 'Housework Blues' from Amazon, but it will take me longer to read it than it will to tidy up :cool:.

    Hi all. Car dealt with, Mr T shop done, P60's organised, kitchen cleared, DW on. Dinner decluttered (fajitas - num,num), rest of weeks meals planned. All bins cleared and recycling out. Not too bad for a CBA day. Tomorrow DH is going to kick me out of bed first thing so I'm going to be flying.

    So sorry to read about mummyslittleboy. Too often we hear about parents or children passing away too soon. It just shouldn't happen.

    Plan for the rest of the week:
    Tue phone dentist
    Wed [STRIKE]pay NN's son for gameboy[/STRIKE]
    finish 'to do' list for work, 'cos I'm losing the plot! - WIP
    return other gameboy to shop in M'hall - glad DS1 tried it first! :mad:
    phone zoo
    Thu DS2's birthday :j
    [STRIKE]former boss' leaving do after work [/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]birthday tea at MIL's[/STRIKE]
    packing list for holiday
    get DS2's clothes ready for tomorrow, as he'll be spending the day with NN :A
    get ready for lesson observation, write a report and mark some work
    Fri swimming lesson with DS2
    pack
    explain to NN's son about feeding the cat
    finalise car insurance

    We had a very pleasant time at MIL's and DS2 enjoyed his birthday very much. He still has a football party to look forward to when we're back from holiday. All I want to do now is curl up and sleep , but have lots of work to do. I think I'll have an hour and then sort out my lesson. Will probably be up at 5am again to sort out the report I need to write.
