    I did my lessons in a (new) mini, a cooper too they still use them but company is a bit far from you. My instructor had a lease car the day I passed, a diesel Clio and however much I hated it my manoeuvres were easier.
    Seafarers IMO still get checked

    Not a great week, I'm behind in what I wanted to achieve & got puppy brother here all weekend. DS2 started with an upset tummy late last night & it hit me at about 5am. I just want to curl up on the sofa & sleep but not possible until DP gets up... I need him to fix my TD again too. Boys bedroom is almost finished, their toy room is now livable after about 6 hours work.

    Ok today I will achieve

    Laundry that's dry upstairs & away
    2 washer loads (more if drier is fixed)
    Clear kitchen benches (pups getting taller!)
    Clear dining table
    Do meal plan
    Sort at least 10 pairs of socks ...

    Squishes and hugs to you all xxx
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Hope you're OK seafarers

    I'm doing a roast dinner today because we're busy tomorrow so that's started. Some washing sulking on the line. That's about it apart from the usual washing up and tidying round.

    Back from chores out of the house. It's still grey here but may put a bit of the washing on the line, it gets it out of the house for a few hours.

    Polly - I did a roast yesterday to save time this weekend!

    Seafareres I broke a bone in the side of my foot when 7 months pregnant with DS3 and DH was in Australia. They did not xray as they would not plaster in case my ankles swelled and nobody would see. Toes maybe different but the most they will do is splint I expect. Glad bump is ok.

    Time to do lunch and mop the kitchen floor.

    I broke my foot when I was 38 weeks pregnant. What are we like?! :rotfl: I don't think they do anything with toes, and I am not sure they would x-ray it either. You will need to put your feet up & take it easy.

    WM on, kitchen S&S, 1 bag of recycling out. Not much else done. I haven't got time to go shopping before my x-ray, so maybe I should do some studying. I feel a headache coming on just thinking about it! :p

    Valli great news on the bay sales. I hate clothes shoppping, hate posh dos and can understand your thinking.

    ta Dusty!

    I appreciate your comments but I cannot face the hassle. Add in taxis; and drinkies...:eek:
    Been listing on fleabay

    Also folks, DD will have a prom next year - I would rather spend the money on her and if ExH loses his job he will stop paying me smartish, and that's February

    Oh I have washing on the line and AF's popped back - she was here 3 weeks back!

    I have eaten two frogs - yum.

    DW emptied and filled, sink shined and worktops scrubbed. Hens cleaned out.

    I've just cut the grass back and front. It was far too wet really but it was getting so long that I just went for it. At this time of year you end up not being able to get it done and by Spring it's a nightmare.


    Washing almost dried, spread round to finish off indoors now.

    Going to catch up with some stuff on V+ now.

    Managed to get a bit done in the garden, must start earlier tomorrow. Cleared an area of logs to be chopped and stacked and that area will now be for leaf mould. Just need to get the chicken wire tomorrow and get it filled.

    Ironing on the cards for tonight with strictly xfactor. Fire lit. Think I'll fix my blinds first in the hope that DH can find a way to put them back up tomorrow.
