Morning, last lie in today DS1 back to school tomorrow, DS2 starts Friday, so the house should stay reasonably tidy during the day. Hoping to have a good day flying today and get most of the list done but me and the boys are at my mum and dads for most of the day so we'll see. Also need to fit in some ironing at some point today

Morning folks

Ds1 decluttered to school looking very grown up (Yr 10). Not sure what to do today with DS2 may take him into the City.

First though I better do some flying. Anyone fancy a HHC 9am?

Dont you just loooooooove September (ignores the atrocious weather) back to school today :j always reminds me of You've Got Mail, Autumn:- 'a bouquet of sharpened pencils' hmmmmm delicious. Littley has her first day in senior school today, she's been so excited it's not funny, well it is, it's lush. She looked gorgeous and so grown up, but she wasn't gone 5 mins before I was in her room FLINGIN' :cool::D:o All lovely in there now. :A

Work shortly then got a date with my OH this avo he's still semi bed-ridden with his back WM is on, ran out with the bins cos I forgot it was binday, filled it first with the flung stuff from drawers in my room FLINGAGE! :T Fed the cat who's in serious danger of bursting if she eats another thing :eek: watched the daft rabbit who wouldn't come in sitting in the rain *rolls eyes* cleared my bedroom of littleys stuff, bought a new king size duvet to go with my brand new king size bedding- it's lush and the most expensive I've ever bought. oops! :money: *coughs* actually, it will last years, the cheap ones I've been using have so these definitely will.

Good Luck to all the school starters, returners & teachers today xx

Really kernackerd and soaked through to the knickers after walking DD to school.

Got to get Baby DS down for nap in a mo then I'm torn between napping and flying. On one hand I'm really in need of sleep, on the other my kitchen is desperado. Won't get time this afters as I've got a Docs appointment and a few errands in town to do then I'll have to pick DD up again.

Might just put WM on now whilst I'm trying to decide my priorities!
