Morning all.
Moggins I hope your daughter okay and feeling a little better today and got a good nights sleep.
I got nothing done yesterday as my dad fell over the washing machine door mum had left open (to air it LOL) and I spent most of the day in hospital waiting for xrays etc, and running an ambulance service (as he couldnt drive as arm so bad) Luckily they eventually decided it wasnt broken, but has torn muscles and so he cant drive etc etc for a few weeks, luckily they are only 12 miles away, so I will just add their trips to tescos etc onto my flying lists.
So hopefully I can do todays and yesterdays.Always on the hunt for a bargain0 -
Goodmorning Ladies!!
Moggins hope your DD is feeling better this morning. I had a quick look at the daily thread and I could not work out if it was an allergic reaction to medication or washing powder?? Was very late and eyes were kind of blurring at this point.
House a mess (not hugely but to my now "normal" standard!) Got busy morning DD1 to Preschool, DD2 to swimming lesson (I have to get in the pool too - best go shave my legs!!), get meat from market, pick up DD1, get home, do their lunch and then think about all the other jobs lined up for today.
SIL coming to stay for weekend so need to make bed up in kids playroom.
Cook Gammon Joint for tea
Make sponge for MIL birthday cake - joint effort with girls
Make some more cookies - again with girls
Spend 1/2 clearing kitchen after girls cooking frenzy - lol
Tidy bedrooms
Clean light-fitting in kitchen (spotted friends the other day and it was manky - made me remember to check mine)
Hoover stairs and landing.
Clean bedroom carpets - still not managed this
Ironing - do in kitchen, settle girls at table sticking and glueing so I can keep eye on them.
Oh!! can I just go back to bed and pull to duvet over me and come back out tomorrow please, oh wait its work at the weekend.
Right, more coffee, get kids and me dressed and get on with it!0 -
Nice to see all the photos.
Busy few days at work, now back flying. Some months ago when we decided to move house and double our living space. I am pleased to say that six weeks in to the new house, three days mess now makes a thin veneer accross everything rather than hiding the entire carpet in one room. Result I think. Today I need to play catch up - so freestyling as usual. Never been very good at taking instructions.....'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
