For a busy day I've not knocked much off the list (and spent too much). Out for a bit of music with OH in while - promised him earlier in the week and now I'd rather stay in. At least I can wear my nice new warm shoes instead of my old sandals.0 -

Morning All
Not had a lot of sleep due to having a very late night as the kids have both got friends sleeping over - needless to say, they're all still in bed. I need a kick up the backside today as I've done no washing up since I got back from my hols - can't actually get to the sink very well as all the stuff that hasn't been unpacked and the washing I haven't finished is in the kitchen - I had to give the kids small knives (like toddler ones) with their tea last night because there were no normal sized ones left- Piggers can I bring my washing up round in a laundry basket too!
Today I've got to take the dog to the vets for his jabs and then the kids have got their swimming lessons tonight but I should have all afternoon free although I may still have 4 kids.
Hugs to all esp LW, Jojo's minion, Oberon, LL, Toots and all the others who are struggling at the mo.
Have a good day all
