Been searching on amazon / ebay to see if any of the CD's I'm thinking of getting rid of are worth anything, and one of them is currently on ebay on buy it now for 45 quid, or 109 quid from US on amazon. Think I might be selling that one then

shell sorry to hear things aren't going too well, all allowed some self indulgent moments.

Was a mad dash out this morning, packed lunches were made and got boys fed & dressed then set off, pleased I checked DS2s bed when I got back as he'd wet through again, have just stripped his bed and cleaned mattress by hand (sister has my vax as she's moving) bottom sheets are now in the wash, 2 more loads inc duvet to do, hopefully dry by bed time.

Been half term here so all uniforms been washed last week, have sorted them out so all ready for Monday, gym kits etc all sorted, homework and reading bags found, kids still have some homework to do, will get it done tonight.

Rest of the day - (yes I know late start)

[STRIKE]Finish washing DS2 bedding (takes 3 loads with all the sheets etc) dry, remake[/STRIKE]
Clear kitchen benches and wipe down
Tidy desk again
[STRIKE]Sort through other email addy (hit it's 999 limit again, oops )
Check through DDT site and make sure all ok, check eBay
Take DS1 prescription to pharmacy (see if they will deliver it when they get it in)

Email person again to get the return address for this parcel
Rest of dailies (have made a start with floors, regular laundry etc) [/STRIKE]
30 mintes study
Night time routine (need boys asleep earlier if possible, midnight is driving me insane)

I have managed to do most of downstairs today. Took DS to swimming lessons, then for haircut after his trial run that he did himself. Went to ASDA and spent £ 85.00!!!!!!!!!! Only went for a couple of things. Got a leg of lamb for £7 tho...........woohoo I never buy lamb as it is so expensive normally. Have enough meat for at least 12 meals though. Will prob keep me going for about 2 weeks other than fresh food. Going to iron now xx

LOL, I've loved hearing all the stories about the littlies. If anyone has a good idea for getting green paint off a white four poster bed I'd be grateful. Having a weekend tidy round because of the surveyor coming on Monday and discovered DD had taken it into her head to paint her sheets and the top rail of her four poster! Plus I've discovered that my Henry does not take well to sucking up glitter.

DH has put together the new cupboard so I now have a new cane bedside table complete with 3 huge drawers. He's also pulled everything out from behind the sofa (huge space as our house is round at the front so the sofa sits in front of a circular alcove) and stuck the dehumidifier behind the sofa as that wall was getting very damp. It's a good job he is being helpful otherwise I would have killed him today. I leave one thing down to him, the car, he is supposed to keep it clean, top up oil and water etc and basically keep it legal. I've just found out I have been driving around in a car with no MOT for the last two weeks! He'd better get on that phone and book it in tomorrow or I am going to wring his neck!

Evening.

Just got back from visiting DH's friends and their 7week old baby. She is gorgeous. They had us round for dinner, and Charlie behaved beautifully. It was lovely for them to see that babies do get easier and it happens fairly quickly. Also nice to be able to let them have a bit of a rest. :rolleyes:

Changed my plan for the day a bit. Me and DH went to ASDA and did the food shop. (£96 - including flowers to take to the new mum, and some mags and books for dads birthday pressie - which is better than normal.) Also spent about half an hour just sat in the bath. Would have had longer, but we ran out of hot water and i felt chilly.

some need to rollover to tomorrow, but then it will be scratched until another time.

how do you guys get all this work done and still go online? If I switch on during the day I would do nothing.

BTW what do DD and DS mean? I think I've worked out the other ones!

DD- Dear Daughter DS Dear Son

Oh fabby!!! I sold 23 items today on ebay.. £136.47!!!!! So, I paid my fees and transferred the rest to my bank account.. or at least I will once I have received payment for them all. (42 items and £573.82 this month so far!! not inc P&P) 112 items still listed, 4 with bids so far.

I now have a bathroom door, that doesn't close because the 'reclaimed' door is warped somewhat..

I collected my specs.. and no I'm not wearing them at the moment, though everyone has said they look ok.
