    Well done Mrs MP's DD!

    DS has been picked u[ from football and both kids have been deposited at my mum's . I've had a load of leaflets dropped off to me for my new Beavers group so I need to put them in bundles of 30 to drop off at the local schools after work on Monday. I need to finish cleaning the kitchen, hoover downstairs and walk the dog before I go out at about 6.45 so I suppose I'd better make a start.

    Well done to Mrs MP's DD.

    Back to work today, but before and after walked the dogs, put rubbish and recycling out, vacuumed and swept through house, cleaned bathroom, my bedroom including changing bedding and dusted living room. Just beginning to prepare dinner. Have a good evening everyone.

    Well the only thing I have done is write my frog list.

    Left the house at 7.40 and only got back at 5pm, put my bits of shopping away (grr had to go to mr s as mr a doesn't stock funny tummy milk anymore), gave the tots a snack, and bathed tot 2 to try unstick her hair from the big chickenpox scab on her neck YUK, and here we are, in my bed, watching the gruffalo's child for the umpteenth time.

    Was supposed to tackle the garage/dump room. Oh well. It's not completely dire...

    Will sha my frog list later...

    Back after a full week at Centerparcs, so I will be mostly doing laundry and putting everything away. Went with the MIL so have a load of extra carp to find new homes for that she bought the children. :(

    I have two exams coming up in the next three weeks so Thursday and Friday will be study days - I really need them! Will try to fit in a bit of flying as well but doubt I'll be following the lists.
