    Couldn't get in the pics although my mate got in as they'd sold out. So we've been Toys'r'us instead which cost me more!

    Just having lunch then I'll make a start

    Afternoon all (I was hoping it would still be morning when I posted this),

    I've finally finished the maths plan!!! :j

    Just had the post through with my car insurance renewal, so need to go and do some comparing prices now. Also need to track down my frog list to see what items 3 and 4 are. Will edit them into this post in a minute.

    Yay that the roofer is coming tomorrow pigpen! That'll be a massive frog of yours eaten!

    My big frogs this half term will be: finding a good insurance quote, getting the maths resources sorted, geting the literacy plans done and resources made. On a positive note, because the literacy is a 3-week unit, I'm going to try to get all three weeks done, so I'm ahead for a bit.

    Will go and strip the bed and put the linen in the wash before it decides to tip down here.

    Zoooom.........

    I can't find the link but it's all about tackling the jobs you have been putting off for ages which probably won't take you long to do. Don't procrastinate, eat that frog!

    Ok found the link about eating frogs and believe it or not - I have got that book!
    Ok here's my frog list:

    1. Sort out under stairs and pantry
    2. De-clutter cold room
    3. Sort out DS1's bedroom
    4. Sort out clothes in bedroom
    5. Clear out airing cupboard
    6. Sort out kitchen
    7. Sort out porch
    8. Put cd's in alphabetical order
    9. Continue with one of the above - whichever has more to do
    10. Continue with one of above - whichever has more to do

    Ok frog list done but think I probably would have been better to choose one room and broken it down into 5 - 10 frogs because there is soooo much to do in each!
    I shall try :)
    Going to have a look at first page now and see what I'm supposed to be doing and then hand pc over to hubby :)
    Happy blessing :)
