    Mumof2 - he went stupidly early on Monday morning. Apparently he's been present shopping, but he had little spare space in his case when he went, so that could be interesting. :cool:

    Made a shopping list for DH - that was really difficult to do, because I'm so used to just going. I had a look at Mr M's offers on the web, but I really dislike the way they've organised their website. I may have to sneak to Mr T's/Jack Fulton's/Aldi tomorrow for a monthly type shop.

    Jacky Here's the link to diva's candle page http://www.gratefulness.org/candles/candles.cfm?l=eng&gi=MSD

    Been into town to M&S, done the bathroom and the kitchen :T also decluttered some healthy porridge for my brekkie then went and ruined it by snarfing 2 packs of Bacon crisps and 2 chocolate biscuits :o AF is here so I'm blaming her.

    Going to take some stuff upstairs and see if I can fine-tune the fine-tuned boxes a little bit more. Then drag the hoover out and have a darn good hoover.

    Kitchen is a bombsite, DD1 decided to cook brownies last night :cool:

    DD1 made me breakfast this morning :) while I washed my hair and stripped the bed.
    All little upstairs windows out, DD2 has taken the bus to drumming. She's meeting her dad after to go card shopping for her Grandads birthday.
    DD1 has bathed, I'm going to load the DW & WM then we're off to my mechanic friend's house so he can give my car the once over :( I need to know what else is wrong with it and if I was diddled by the other bloke :(

    Afternoon all,

    I've been busy ish all morning & have got loads done (with DH & the kids help). I'm off out to DD's riding lesson now so will continue later.

    S&S surfaces
    [/STRIKE]

    Bathrooms and loos
    Level One
    [STRIKE]Clean sink and toilet
    Wash mats and towels
    [/STRIKE]
    Water plants, gardeners sort through your seeds, bin out of date ones and write a list of what you need - flyladies you can all grow something to eat this year
    Master Bedroom
    Level 1
    [STRIKE] Gather up all the laundry from various places[/STRIKE]
    Change the bedding - all strippped but not actually remade yet
    Level 2
    [STRIKE] Tidy and dust at least one surface[/STRIKE][STRIKE]
    Sort belts/scarves/jewellery - can any be rehomed/sold[/STRIKE] nothing to sell, but all tidier now
    Level 3
    [STRIKE] Wipe the door handles upstairs[/STRIKE] Whole house done by DH including walls where needed & all doors & frames - he is a star!
    Kids Bedroom or neglected room
    Level 2
    15 minute tidy up of your messiest room
    Level 3
    [STRIKE] Wipe downstairs door handles[/STRIKE]
    Extras
    Finish something you've started
    [STRIKE] Sort out ebay parcels - well ones that have bids on
    [/STRIKE] Done & ready to post to winning bidders
    Look for more stuff to ebay
    [STRIKE] Take jeans back to next[/STRIKE] My lovely courier just knocked with my last sale parcel so I gave her the return rather than going into town. And I have a lovely new handbag at less than half price. Result! :j
    HHI x 3

    See if you can finish you're flying earlier this week so you get a break before the new thread, even if this means removing some things from your list - I am aiming to do all the cleaning on Sat so Sunday I can chill & just do the ironing.

    Good morning ladies.

    LWyou have to stay.

    Breastfeeding peer supporter course today. It's nice to meet ladies who are as passionate as me about the subject.
    I hope everyone has a nice day

    I am hoping to breastfeed again this time i fed Jake for 21 months but had to do bottle top up as did not produce enough.

    I have flittered this week but the house is really tidy. Freezer is full gammon out the freezer for tomorrows dinner.

    Baby is now 2 days late so been for a walk to Mr M this morning to do a little shopping with OH.

    I thought i would be mega stressed but i feel fine he/she will come when ready. Bet we wouldn't have had a lie in till 11am if the baby had been here lol.

    i am in a baking mood just not sure what i fancy lemon meringue or flapjack. Got pizza for tea tonight bought not homemade not in mood for bread dough making at the mo.

    Love and hugs for all and please everyone keep posting i love to sit and read all of your posts.
