I can't believe it's nearly 4 o'clock and I've done sweet fanny adams.
Just managed to do the basics really and been to MrT's for the weekly shop with the horrors in tow " can we have this Mum, can we have that Mum .....Oh that's so unfair...go on mum can we just have one of these":mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: I'm being slowly driven insane. That aside ,I still came only £3ish over budget ....which all things considered is a miracle."Every time you feel yourself getting pulled into someone else's nonsense, tell yourself: Not my circus, not my monkeys." - Mark Borkowski.

Hiya :hello:
It must be something in the water then cause I'm not motivated that much either, did force myself to run around with the hoover and a wet cloth today, and pre=prepared the veg for tea which is cooking now, but that's about it. I'm not too bothered though as the house is still tidy and still pretty clean so it's all good, I did however find that after not doing a thing yesterday it was starting to creep in, nipped that in the bud and gave kids a list, well it was their mess afterall
Just waiting for pressure cooker to finish then I'm gonna dish up tea/swish and swipe the kitchen afterwards and do a general potter and organise stuff for tomorrow

I can honestly say I am thankful today that I don't have dining room (eat in kitchen so that's done kitchen day) spare room (all are used) or study (desk in living room so done on that day) as I have struggled just to get dailies done, but they are done. Did 3 hours study this morning then went straight to comptuer course. Kids dinner on now, will have to get ours when get back from college. Got a major headache, stress I think. Night time stuff will have to also wait until we get back.One day I might be more organised...........

well I have unearthed the LARGEST mountain of odd socks you have ever seen, they were all in the ironing basket, which I had forgotten I had. The ironing pile is usually too big just to fit in the basket! (Been clearing my floordrobe :eek: been at it on and off for 3 days
)
So you can guess what my job is this evening! Ah well a bit of HM banana bread will go down a treat while I'm trying to match them all upOfficial Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0 -

) that's my socks/undies basket, it's very full and still waiting to be sorted.
