1st day on and I've managed to complete levels one and two in my little ones room. Didn't have to work too hard though given that her room doesn't have room to swing a cat!

Hopefully the space will be improving in the next couple of weeks has I'm going to be selling lots of baby stuff at some nearly new sales. I'm sure I will just fill the space up again by Xmas though!

I have done ALL the lists! Well done me! Little bit of ironing tomorrow and a trip to tip and charity shop and all my work is done! 2x little uns are at their dads and teen at a party this weekend so this house may actually still be tidy on monday woop woop!! Feeling so much better!

[STRIKE]Bottle [/STRIKE]Glass of wine now decluttered!!

adamantine

ive got a basket full of ironing to put away but after falling out on the kids and having to put DS2 onto the naughty step for throwing toys the living room is spotless!! amazing what a bit of discipline does to their sudden enthusiasm to do what they are told!

painted my nails in prep for practising my nail stamping tomorrow night. toes are painted too meaning next week all i have to do is a quick coat again and im sorted to go out.

tan is booked.
waxing booked.
tuesday im dying my hair coz its faded badly and roots are not looking good. my hair is dark dark purple btw. sounds strange but its really really nice but looks like ive murdered someone in the shower a la psycho when i have a shower lol.
fridge restocked with veg and loads in the freezer to use up next week so only thing i need to buy is some drink to take to the hotel with me coz i refuse to pay the prices at the wedding dance on saturday before we hit the town. very little, if any change from a fiver for a vodka and coke! i can get 10 blue wkd for £12 (asda just finished their offer for 10 for £8 the b****rs lol)

think ill retire to bed with some TOWIE. not before i declutter the last blue wkd taking up space in my fridge. there is a perfect bottle shaped space in my recycling box crying out to be filled lol.
