    I am super grump today.. I feel like all I have done is yell, which I don't do normally.

    All in bed apart from shorty now, she is running about naked shrieking WOOHOO!! and rubbing her tummy.. DH can deal with her.. I've done my bit for the day I think!

    My mother is now nagging me to go to pub with her.. *sigh* if only there were 2 of me!

    Uniforms.. DW.. clear sofas floor in front room and I am done for the day.

    the house is a tip again.. remind me why I do this?

    Pigpen I have a nice cold damp cellar with lots of spiders in it (probably a couple of mice too) would you like to me take your kids and lock them in there for a day? They'll be so grateful to get back to mum they'll do whatever you ask :D

  • My husband is going away tomorrow until Sunday and i'm quite scared as it'll be the first time i've been left alone with the kids since we had them!! I hate sleeping on my own in the house too!

    Oh well, i'm hoping to get on with loads of housework while hes away so that he can come back to a sparkly clean house! Whether that'll happen though, is another matter!

    Didn't get chance to check Moggins challenge last night (due to falling asleep on the settee after doing a PILE of ironing!!) This FLY-ing is tiring!! However, I did the kids bedrooms on Monday (:j :j ) so it doesn't matter that I've done (virtually) nothing today!! Did have a nice day with my DS2 and DD, at a friend's house!!

    Have done a load of washing and finished off the drying from yesterday. There is another load in the drier as we speak!! Will get back on track tomorrow!!!

    I am in the same boat as you pink butterfly....my husband is also away at the weekend, so I am on my own with the children for the first time too! Have never really spent nights apart (except when I was in hospital after having them both!) Same plan of action....to get as much "Flying" done as possible!!!

    Today is the master bedroom.

    Change bedding, hoover the mattress, hoover the floor, dust, remove all dirty laundry from the bedroom, put away anything on the floordrobe! do a 5 fling boogie in your wardrobe. Wipe down light switches, doors and doorframes and go cobweb hunting.

    Remember dailies and nightime routines

    Tackle one hotspot.

    Jojo and Pink Butterfly - my DH works nights on a rota system, he's been doing that for over a year and I still can't sleep on the nights he's at work! It was gone 1am before I got off to sleep last night and I have to be up at 6.30!

    if i did that i'd have nothing left :rotfl: thanks moggins, room not too bad so hopefully be quick as dining room clutter has been building up - this is a main living room too if that makes sense as between kitchen and living room so lots of traffic etc and i need to nip it in the bud now :D

    night all - hope you have a good night pigpen ;)

    Scaredy cat that is exactly the layout for my dining room too. You should have seen it before XDH moved out, it then contained car tyres, batteries and lengths of old wire. The table was stuck inside the chimney breast!
