    OK, paper bought, letter posted. Walking over there warmed me up a bit.

    Everything back in the airing cupboard, neatly folded ;) Little bedroom all tidied up and nothing there that shouldn't be. One or two bits still in the back bedroom, some to be put in the loft and a couple of things to be hung up, probably in the hallway. I've put stuff for the tip out in the shed until next week, I'm not trying to go there on a bank holiday weekend!

    Corrie's still not on catchup so I'm going to read the paper now.

    well OH is back round the house, he is going to finish painting the living room walls today then make a start on the skirting boards tomorrow :D the living room needs doing by tuesday as thats when some big items of furniture are coming. then the plan is to do our bedroom before his parents arrive this weekend to help so that should be a bit easier than the living room, although there is a kingsized bed to build :eek:

    right im going to go and do a bit of filing and then i going to wash the dishes. so slighly longer HHC starting now!

    good morning peeps :D

    Not much flying going on here today as I am working all day. I have Little Miss Sunshine today, but she is going early. I also have the boys after school (1.30 pick up on a Friday). I am then off until next Friday!! :j So I may attempt to get some jobs done then (LR/DR carpets need cleaning :o)
    I am hoping to get some more kiddies soon, as I need more work! (for the record, I look after children, I don't need more of my own!!) A parent approached me at school yesterday, so I need to give her a call & arrange a visit :T

    The good news is, I haven't seen any water yet dripping from my bedroom ceiling, despite the monsoon we had yesterday :j

    Pigpen I hope you don't mind me being nosey, but why does your sister need help out of bed? (although I need a good kick most mornings! :D) And when is the new baby due? :)

    I may post a list later, but I have play dough to play with now :p

    I have posted my tax credit form, picked up OH's tablets, got sugar, made tea and S+S'd the kitchen.

    Going to drink my tea now and then mop the kitchen floor and then upstairs to dust and hoover.....xx

    Morning all :)
    I haven't read through posts sorry but have noticed it's mummyof5's birthday so :bdaycake: HAPPY BIRTHDAY mummyof5 :j
    I have been down with yet another stomach bug this week :( but hoping that what I've got now is the last of it. I am starting to feel better apart from the odd run to the loo and a bit of cramping so going to do a bit as I go along :) I have company - my DS2 has had it with me too - in fact I caught it from him. Half term next week and I'm really looking forward to getting stuck in :)
    I have quit party planning - want to focus on my house, home baking and making :D
    I'm going to de-clutter a cuppa while I watch an episode 'How clean is your house' - sad maybe but I find it inspiring :) Also enjoy Anthea Turner's programme and love Kirsty's homemade Xmas :)
    I intend to become the Domestic Goddess I dream of being :)

    Happy birthday and love and hugs to anyone I've missed/wants or needs them xx
    Jen x
    Everything happens for a reason :)
