    Thanks for all the birthday wishes. I've spent most of it ironing then 4 car journeys depositing/collecting children between 4.30 and six. Dinner was rather late! I'm waiting for DS1 to come out of college. It's very, very cold.

    Evening all

    A really long day here and a very giving one of time but that's ok. Hoping to get 5 minutes me time tonight to read my book before going to sleep.

    I've go the hygienist tomorrow morning, I hate that so much. Also need to:

    DS3 to get wii controllers back and take sweets to school
    Take stuff to recycling centre
    wrap DS3 birthday presents
    Make jelly
    Take DS2 to a VI form interview
    DS3 to a friend
    Out to a party in the evening, only next door so not far at all

    Right time to put WM on and to bed.

  • Anyone got any ideas as to what I could store on very high shelves in top of wardrobe, please? I have been sorting my wardrobe storage out, used to store sheets and bedding up here but found that I never got them down as it was too high. Any suggestions would be gratefully received
  • I store the medicine box, my jewellery box, a box of spae toiletries and my handbags on mine. All stuff i need easy access to, but not needed daily etc.
  • Am shattered but no point in going back to sleep as might as well make the most of Ben sleeping and get myself ready as getting a manicure at 10.30

    Am off to do a hhi and get some breakfast whilst I can.

    Morning everyone. Have been in work since Wednesday and have been a really lazy cow in the evenings. Have kept the kitchen and living room tidy and w/m & d/w on the go but when I get in just want to snuggle in front of the fire. Anyway looks like weekend will be quiet, rugby is likely to be cancelled and football too I would think and scouts have already cancelled a planned hike - so plenty of catch up time.
