Have already bought the dog towels in off the line and they are finishing off in the dryer, and 'decontaminated' the back yard - she is very discerning where she 'goes', never in the garden, always on grass (and we have bags in all our coat pockets!) but he isn't proud and will go anywhere - preferably in nettles if we are out, but he uses the garden lots too! Sorry if that's TMI for this time in the morning!

I know what you mean, Sagaris. I was poo-picking at 07:15 this morning; both the lads decided to "go" on the back lawn, so I went and cleaned up in time for Mr LW to drop the bag off in the poo-bin he passes on his way to work.;)

Just had a text - their "taxi" home is running half an hour late, she'll be here about 10:00.:o Their bag is all packed though, so it'll just be a question of put their leads on, load their bag and beds into the car, and off they go.:( No more booked in til May 4th (yeah, Star Wars Day:D) so I'll hope for a short-notice booking later this month.;)

Then, Tuesday is Lounge Day; I also want to get ahead with tomorrow's room, the bathroom, as Mr LW is wfh tomorrow, and we've a lot of errands to run when he finishes (14:30, as he'll be doing the early shift).:o

[STRIKE]HH Paperwork[/STRIKE]-- - did an hour of learning Italian instead as no paperwork to do

Hello everyone, I have been a flyer before but life keeps getting in the way...I have been lurking on the thread though Anyway, decided to jump back in as I am nostalgic for the days when I used to sit in my house twiddling my thumbs because there was no housework to do Doubt I will get back to that as I am now studying full time, but I can hope I have put my books to one side for the day and am going to concentrate on getting Monday and Tuesdays lists today, then will spend some time clearing the garage.

Sorry for waffling, I am going to do a HHC at 10.10 if anyone wants to join me?

Lots of bumping and banging from upstairs - the cleaners arrived half an hour early, very polite, very nice, and got straight down to it (well okay had a look around and then brought all the stuff in then got down to it!)

Morning flyladies. Well my first day of flying has started. I had a rubbish night's sleep, think I did too much yesterday while out and about, I can't get used to not being able to do as much now I'm pregnant!

HH Paperwork

[/STRIKE] - all up to date except something I need to sort out with the bank, the lady I usually deal with is on holidays so I'll pop into the branch while I'm in town tomorrow.

I've also hoovered and dusted the bathroom and cleaned the sink as I have a visitor coming in a bit and it was rather dusty in there. Even if it comes up as bathroom day tomorrow it'll probably still be dusty again.....blinking toilet roll!!!

Have had the steam mop out too and done the bathroom and kitchen floors so I think that's me about done.

One thing I will tell you all that I intend to do in the hope it motivates me......I have a cross stitch picture I'm doing for the baby's room so I've challenged myself to do a minimum of 1 hour per day on it, although I doubt that'll be enough to get it done still!

mrs-moneypenny

Lisa pop into the cross stitch thread and say hello if you need any inspiration or advice on it. its a lovely thread and very friendly. they managed to rekindle my love or all things stitchy and have given me some lovely helpful advice, i lovel looking at the beautiful photos people post on there of their current stitchy items.

back from dentist nothing needed doing except a litltte bit of cleaning, got a hospitla appt for two weeks time to see orthodontist re crowding of teeth, but i bet it will be like last year told to come back in 12 months time and see how they are growing. hes hanging on to his baby teeth and very slow at growing 2nd ones but dentists guess is hell need a brace or some work to sort the positions out when they do come.

boys are playing on xbox for 1/2 hour with birthday games so im off to see if i can get some washing out, suns actually out here now t was damp and murky first thing.

pigpen

Mountains of washing folded and away
Lead run up to the shed for the freezer which is supposed to be being fixed today.. I bet they come while I am at physio with Moomin.. ggrrrr....
1 load of towels outside on the line... in the pouring rain.. it will stay out until it is dry lol.
I have 3 parcels to sort.. one to Moomins friend and 2 catalogue returns.. I am desperately trying to find some shoes that fit!

I was going to say I will now go find lunch while Dot is napping but she is awake already... Best feed Squeak though as she is trying to eat plastic apples at the moment!

Mrs MP.. they told me DD1 and DS3 would need a brace and neither of them have..

juliejim

mrs-moneypenny
