kitchen pretty much done, but while I've been doing it the kids have been wreaking havoc upstairs - ho hum - two steps forward, one step backwards!
kids are still naked, but they've just polished off most of the cherries so probably a good job they're not dressed yet!
it'll be a race to get to playgroup now!

Morning
I've done the bedrooms today, the forecast seems to say today is the best day of the week so I wanted to get the bedding out on the line.
Also, cut the front grass. Either later today when the washing is dry, or tomorrow morning, I'll get the back done before the rain comes back.

Good Morning everyone.
Still in bed at the moment and OH has just brought in he last couple of weeks papers for me to read so just as I was thinking of getting my butt moving I have another reason to stay put!
Not feeling great again which is such a pain as I felt so much better on holiday.
Have already done the bathroom and did a quick S&S in the kitchen yesterday so hopefully won't be too bad. Plus not been shopping since we got home so fridge won't take two seconds!
Hugs and spoons to all, and to the DD and DS who have to put up with vile creatures whilst at school. When I was at school there was a girl who used to continuously pinch others. In the end the teacher sat her down and got everyone to pinch her. She never did it again and was a changed person but sadly I think the teacher would get shot for trying that these days!0
