Hangover going really well - DS3 decided it was time to practice his trumpet for the first time in a week. Then we went to let the neighbours rabbits out into the run but DS3 accidently let it go free range so have spent 10 minutes chasing a rabbit around a garden.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0

Ehic cards renewed online (first try by phone to get all way through to say they are experiencing technical difficulties and cannot be renewed)
Doctors appt made for DD for Saturday which is better than the friday week they offered me earlier this morning and I hung up when the receptionist was sarcastic to me.
Next job - think I might skip dining room and move to the living rooms as they'll be relatively easy in comparison

I'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged0 -
I have zero motivation today, I seem to be using looking at cleaning tips/ideas as an excuse to sit and play on the laptop :undecided
So whilst Little Miss is sat painting I think I'm going to set the alarm for 30 minutes and race around and see how much I can accomplish. It's not helping that my hubby's away just now and Little Miss has been waking every hour or so as she's unsettled...why is it that no matter how late they're up, nor how many times in the night, toddlers still get up at Stupid O'clock in the morning?!0 -

Thanks. I might do thatNeed to check with DH when he comes home tomorrow so that we know what they are! He might need some of the cables for his music stuff (in which case he can put it there!)
Snap! Pigpen.
DD1's room has been without curtains for over a year. Curtain pole was put up on Tuesday - so one of my Frogs today is to iron and hang curtains ready for DD1 return from uni on weekend.
My DD is back from uni next week - and she hasn't got a bed!! :eek: We dismantled the old one, & were going to get a sofa bed, but they aren't in stock. She has already made it clear that she doesn't want to spend the next 3 months sleeping on the floor/sofa
Well i now have Little Miss Sunshine for a few hours, so we are off strawberry picking (educational, and very yummy). Just packing up now. And I KNOW that I have enough petrol
Hopefully I can do my paperwork frogs tonight whilst watching BGT.
See you later0 -

Please, let me help.
You can come round mine and clean my oven every week instead....
Or mine :rotfl: Didn't know they even existed... now why didn't I buy one of them :mad:
Does anyone have a cure for an OH who seems to be completely incapable of putting things back where he found them (because he'll need them again sooner or later) and then asks where they are because they're not in there place.... solutions greatly receivedOr I could duck and you could all throw mules at him at once
