I'm in again this week in my own little way. :j
I had to pick DD up from school at 1 as she had tummy ache - seems happy as larry now though. I thought this would give me some extra flying time, but I forgot that DS needed his bike today for an after school club, so I drove DD the 11 miles home, got her settled in front of the TV, drove back to school to meet DS with the bike, yet another 11 miles home & its the usual time for getting in
DH is away again so everything should stay fairly tidy & I am going to try to eat a couple of frogs tonight

Hi all. Well managed to go awol from thread last week. As it is supposed to be the best day weatherwise today I have decided to get all the washing done. So 2 beds have been changed and towels and dressing gowns and bedding all washed incl mattress toppers. I have also showered the dog and myself cleaned the bathroom and hoovered through upstairs and managed to squeeze £150 of meat from Mr M's into the freezers(God knows how!) also done some cleaning in kitchen.
Dusty - many thanks for the lists

Mymmyyof5 - I use petmeds and have just switched to the fipro stuff - so far so good, it's much cheaper. Don't forget quidcoThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0

Please miss I haven't got a kitchen to clean!
I have instead been to work *yawns*, emptied and filled the DW, and washed our bedding. I have made butter and buttermilk with reduced cream. I have also carried some stupidly heavily worktops backwards and forwards and sighed in resignation as my snug gets covered in yet more sawdust.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
We used the fiprospot as welll... it is the same active ingredient as frontline.... the next time we bought advantage which was by far the better of the 3.. it actually worked for a start!
