It has taken me since my last post to sort out the clean washing into the ironing baskets:eek: Yes I really do have that much ironing too do:o which TBH really isn't like me!

I am going too have an early ish night. Working in the morning, home to some paperwork. Then I need too go to town and sort out some stuff and take back a maxi dress which is about 3 inches too long for me. Might do town after school though.

Ok so signing off for tonight. Catch you all tomorrow xx

Ofsted report arrived today - we are officially a 'good school with some outstanding features'

Congratulations! :T You probably knew this already, but it's nice to have it confirmed.

I was home from work a bit earlier (DS2 still not quite well), spend time with the kids and made tea for DH, me and DS1. Oh, I also gave DH a lift, did a bit of work and had an unplanned HHK (thanks, pigpen - I loved that!).

Time to load WM and DW and put a few things away before making a cuppa and doing some marking. Years ago I wouldn't have thought twice about making a coffee at this time, but it doesn't seem to agree with me as well now. I'll think about it.

If DS2 is still off tomorrow I'll squeeze another early start in - if not, I'll take him to breakfast club and go at my usual time. Busy day tomorrow - we're counting down days until the end of term, but the work count seems to be going up! :eek:

Thanks to FCC for the thread - forgot about that yesterday!

I've only read this post, but if it's a glass door a hob scraper is quite effective. Then polish off with other cleaner.

I didn't get my HHK.. I found another 1000 things to do instead.. vacuumed and wiped the girls room and put them clean sheets on.. Played with laundry.. did dinner, fought with Squeak, made a cuppa,

Ended up decluttering DS3's hair and his headlice... 2 of the girls had none, 1 had 4 and he was walking!!! I need to do DD2 and Tiddles again.. don't think I'll get time tomorrow.. .. they are supposed to be at KH's..

I REALLY want some sweets...

Oh.. it is OH's 30th tomorrow too.. so I need to wrap his presents.. might sneak upstairs and do them in a minute actually.. I need to post an ebay parcel tomorrow before the buyer whines I have it ready to go just not had time!.. PO is at the end of the street but it takes me forever to get there! I arranged a redelivery for DD4's parcel too.. I won't get to collect it until Thursday so have rescheduled it for Wednesday.

I need the 3 girls to sleep in other rooms Wedneday night due to the heat and damp from the wet plaster... so I can put 1 in DD2's room and the other 2 will have to go in the middle room... that sounds horrific!!!

Decorator meant to be coming tomorrow to do quote.. ..

Plasterboard going on tomorrow It is so sad how excited I am about the bedroom being done.. Tiddles seems quite excited too...

Decorator hopefully coming to do me a quote tomorrow
