Well done Goodintentions!

I finished my worktops
swept and mopped floor
Ironed work trousers and top for tomorrow
Wiped over hob
Emptied and refilled DW
TD

Kitchen looks soooooo much better. Have a pile of gibble to sort now though, maybe do that tonight, also think I'll get DH to join me in a sock matching session.

Was so tired yesterday I fell asleep on my bed at 8pm whilst waiting for DD to go to sleep. Spent the next hour trying to wake up, then thought f it and put my jammies on and went back to sleep. You think I'd feel a lot better today wouldn't you? No, could still do with a nap!

Think I might fold some laundry whilst baby DS is crawling around on the floor amusing himself, then off to a playgroup for 1:30pm.

Catch you later. x

Goodintentions

I have remade my bed, and swept & mopped the kitchen floor before picking up from play group My shoulder hurts a bit now I think it was the bed that did it (kingsize duvet & lots of shaking it). I will have to rest it for the rest of the day I have had lunch so i may take some ibuprofen.

Will catch up later

Welcome to the newbies, and the returnees, you’ll love it here. Oh and I also notice a couple of you are from my neck of the woods – finally I am not alone in being the only Kent lass..lol

I'm not far from you either Natty! :hello:


I've hung out the washing that was on the airer. Reloaded the WM (2nd time). Sorted out some paperwork and had some parcels delivered :j so sorted them out too.
I've had lunch and now just killing time 'til my appointment at the school. I made an appointment to see my girls head of college to tell him all about the situation with the XH and the court business and that I'm taking the girls out of school for a few days before half term as that's when XH is released and we don't want to be around as he'll be really p*ssed off this time

Thanks Piggers; no woofeties at the mo, but I have a 15 year old Collie booked to arrive on Friday 14th October for 8 days.

List-wise, I'm only doing what needs it (honest, guv:D) but of course, there's always catch-up stuff after a trip away. *rolleyes*

Got a not-very-welcome dog at present - came home to find the biggest, hairiest, snarlingest BD lurking in the shrubbery waiting to pounce on me - hence me being quiet for a few days.:(

I think I just need to catch my breath, get back to not running on pure adrenaline (which I was while we were away, tbh), and get used to being on my own for many, many hours again.:o
