    Good luck Juliejim! I'm sure you'll do great! :D

    Booked a haircut for Saturday afternoon (in Dutch - ooo er!). Saturday is going to be quite busy. Groceries coming betwee 10 and 12, then haircut at 2, then off to knitting shop I found on t'interweb, then back home for batch cooking whilst drooling over the guys in Supernatural! Mmmmmm. I'll be doing some cleaning/flying in between all that too! :D

    I've been on FB far too long looking at wedding pics.

    Good Luck JulieJim

    Right enough procrastination. Anyone for a HHC/I/E/G starting 11.15?
  • Good Luck JJ xx

    I mopped all the downstairs this morning, popped to Mr T, got a kagool thingy plus the Hello Kitty jumpers and leggings that are on offer, plus the £5 voucher, so had some bargains.

    Been to Mums and cleaned all her LR + DR.

    Going to put the hoover round here and do a general s+s in each room. I'll try and get on with the lists after work.......

  • Good afternoon :D

    I have been to toddler group this morning, so no flying done. Came home, picked up the larger than usual pile of post, Miss T was collected about 5 mins after we got in, made some potato & leek soup (yum) & opened the post, binned most of it :mad:. I need to post my forms for my foundation degree, but I am tempted to have a little snooze :o
    I have to pick the boys up from school. I felt horrible yesterday cos one of the boy's mums left here in tears yesterday :( I hadn't said anything to her, but I think she is realising the seriousness of his behaviour (she has been in denial, I think). I need to give her notice tomorrow, and I am dreading it (but will also be so relieved, IYSWIM) I wonder what delights I will have to put up with today!?

    DH was home last night, but is away again tonight & Saturday. That means he is away for 5 nights out of 7 this week. At least he seems a lot better now - BD has retreated :j

    I will catch up later after I have [STRIKE]had a little sleep[/STRIKE] been to the PO :p
  • Elmo - can't help on the bin front, but how are you? I notice your due date has been & gone! Have you had your baby, or is the bin some serious nesting going on? ;)

    Bicarb of soda is supposed to be an odour neutraliser, so you could try sprinkling that all over the bin?

    ETA: It is recommended that you sprinkle, leave for an hour or so, and then remove (hoover probs). Sorry, meant to say that earlier.
