I left OH in bed too.. he is trotting off to tesco when he gets up for foody things for DS3's birthday tomorrow.. I will have another teenager!! :eek: It seems like 5 minutes since he arrived a teeny tiny poorly bundle.. now he is a not so teeny tiny poorly bundle lol..
Wet laundry hung up
bagged up recycling
glugged a cuppa!
Off to play with the breastpump and load the DW, WM and TD.. and fold Dots washing!
*sigh*
It really is never ending!
Oh.. I need to update my Toots list too.. I am thinking of prioritising it too.. so I can start at the top and work my way down in an orderly manner.. number 1 job.. back up old PC, reset to factory setting and donate to DS1..

Morning all only light rain here at the moment, washing on the maiden.
Need to spend HH on here doing banking etc and then I'm going to get all of downstairs dusted.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Plan is to go out for lunch with the DD's today - we are heading to gourmet Burger Kitchen.
DD1 has just discovered we get 25% off because we are Picturehouse members! Result! She's a very careful moneysaver these days!:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
First batch of pillows is dry, second lot have overflowed the WM
obviously too much powder in with them. Have been through boxes in spare room and been ruthless with the books - two boxes now packed up for posting (if the flylady home for unwanted books has run out of room, let me know and I'll take them to the charity shop instead).
Still trying to work out quite where everything will go while the floors and decorating are being done. And once I have the decorating booked I can decided whether to a. Sleep on the sofa bed in the sitting room b. Sleep on the airbed in the spare room, or c. Put my bed back together in the spare room...
Several friend's are trying to persuade me to go out for lunch and to a children's market this afternoon. I think I might try to go - and I could drop of my duvet at the cleaners (where it can stay while all the work is being done in the house) and maybe even drop some stuff off at the charity shop and/or tip.

Yes thanksdidn't wake up in a puddle last night for a start. I'm at the stage where I'm well enough to get bored, but not well enough to do much!
