Well done Jenny on the new job

I didn't get as much done as I had planned. In my defence, i was working all day! I got DS to empty the DW, and DS & DD2 walked the dog.
I am glad I hadn't got round to wiping the kitchen units or mopping the floor - as it would have needed doing again after Little Miss Sunshine 'helped' with washing up the painting stuffWe had green/blue painty water all down the units & on the floor! I am glad I had the foresight to put a plastic apron on her first!!
Maccy D's for tea tonight (kids reward for walking the dog) - so no washing up :j
I have vac'd downstairs, and will put some washing on before I go to bed.
I have that lovely feeling of not needing to set the alarm for tomorrowI have to pick up from school (paid work) at 1.30 (I should be up by then!!) DS has already broken up from school as they are moving buildings (new school!) over the summer so got an extra week off! Joy!!
I need to take the dog for a good walk/swim in the morning and get lots of washing done before school pick up - so i will try not to lay in too long.0 -
