    rach.. not in my house.. lol

    Anyway I came back just to say.. flipping boys!!!!!!!

    I just went in the front room for something and behind the sofa I found the 2 piles of boys clothes they were given to put away yesterday!!!! they are so infernally lazy!! I run myself ragged and they hide clean washing behind the sofa !!! Like I wouldn't ever find it!! Are they stupid or what?

    AND.. I just checked my account and I've had £30 deposit from quidco.. so that's paid off a bill.. I like all this 'free' money!

    That's better, I don't feel so guilty now. The dishwasher is unloaded and loaded with the breakfast things. The toilet is cleaned inside and out, the bathroom sink has been swished and some stuff put away on the shelf. The cooker has been wiped down, the worktops wiped down and the bin wiped over. One load of washing got out of the tumble dryer (will fold it later) one lot off the airers and folded, one load gone into the tumble dryer and the airer filled again. Now I can sit down and keep an eye on DD as she seems to be stirring and drink the coffee I just made.
