I've quickly come downstairs from de-furring my bedroom for a cold drink.
The kittens followed me around the bathroom as I cleaned looking bemused it was as if they'd never seen me clean before:rotfl:
They've then decided to follow me downstairs and chase each other manically round the FR, one has now died on the floor and the other on one of the sofas. Hopefully they'll have moved before I want to restart down here.
I've decided two things today - 1) I'm not washing any windows today, apart from the inside of the bathroom ones that I've just done. It's too big a job to start now so they can wait til next week, hopefully 'til when someone else is home to hold the ladder so I can do outside and put the big flowering weed out of the gutter which I've been meaning to do for ages
2) I've been into the DD's room to do the airing cupboard and have decided that's the last time! I told them I was going to hoover in there today but the floor is covered in junk!! I'm really p*ssed off so I think some grounding is in order :mad:
Right, onwards and upwards or I'll never be done and I still have to pack for my weekend away0 -
Good morning
Got up late (7.15) 'cos my phone had decided to turn itself off last night (it is my alarm) :mad: It does that sometimesit is fully charged. Luckily Ds was already up. Took him & friend to school. She had forgotten bus fare, so gave her some - her mum gave DS a lift home twice this week (in the rain on Tuesday!) so it's not a problem
Dog fed, Little Miss Sunshine here, DD2 picked up from friend's house (lost her phone at Prom last night :mad:). DW unloaded & started to reload. I am off now in search of washing before i have to take DD2 to school for an interview with Ofsted!
i want to catch up today, but not sure I am going to be able to0 -
Morning
Washing on the line, I've vacuumed through downstairs. Also found the paint for the back bedroom and went over a few little marks, you could only see them if you really looked hard but I knew they were there. Looks better to me now.
Got the washing in now and it's folded and put away. Then I cut the back grass and edged it and swept up. Lastly I picked up Meg (older cat) and cleaned her eyes, ears and put flea stuff on. She is NOT impressed! Will do Tigger when he gets up again.0
