    Been to Tescos before it got busy, collected ds winter coat (gorgeous :D) and spent £13 on bread, milk, veg, blueberries, ham, burgers and fabric conditioner. They hadn't yet reduced any xmas stuff down so that was good as I wasn't tempted to look at any of it ;)

    Todays plan is to gut ds bedroom and get all his new presents away in there. We're also going to practice outside on his roller skates and I may clean the car too. At some point this afternoon I will text cutie :)

    Ds bedroom is all tidy and clean again, new presents are all away too :) I haven't gone through all his cupboards and drawers again, it wasn't that long ago that I did them last, so as long as it looks okay then thats fine by me ;)

    His bedding is in the machine, another load is drying nicely too. The flat is 80% clean and tidy, will get more done as I potter around. I also need to write a list of other bits and pieces I need to get done before we go back to school.

    I have texted cutie, waiting now for a reply, although that can take several hours can't it :rotfl:

    I think you need to leave cutie to text you, he could get scared off again by your eagerness, lovely as it is.....

    Thanks Kittikins, I would agree but I actually said to him that he should text me as I didn't want to keep badgering him and he was insistent that I text him, he didn't want to intrude on xmas for me as I have a ds, and he had nothing on so he said three times that I should text him tuesday or wednesday to arrange something. We'll see, maybe he'll text me later, but I'll leave it otherwise :o

    First part of my Next order has arrived, and also the doorstop I got mum for mothers day has come too.

    Ds wants a duvet day today which is fine by me as its raining outside, so another day of pottering, not spending money, getting organised and hopefully hearing from cutie at some point :)
