Morning all,
Tots decluttered to nursery, breakfast decluttered, cup of tea next. Wm just on spin but raining here so will go on airers. I'm usually at work but booked a day off while the tots are out to prep for our holiday. So I won't be flying next week. Well, just the aeroplane type, lol.
We are in pretty good shape still, apart from laundry. I stripped the beds yesterday so have all that to do, plus get our work and nursery things ready so I don't have to bust a gut when we return.
I had a little look into my other forum again today, it's specifically for us young widows. Am I allowed to say I felt even more depressed? I think it will do me good to have a week off from that, although the support is wonderful. But some of the tales of woe a just too much to bear. Feel horrible just thinking it, as I know there are no rules to grief, and I have my bad days too, but sometimes it's a little lift to hear something positive.
Which is of course, one of the many reasons why I come here!!!
Hugs to you all, just for being you!

Good morning

Mumto5 Good luck for your interview (can't remember when it is, but good luck anyway
)
Bossymoo ((((big hugs))))
Today I have put out the bins, recycling & food bin, washed 2 food bins, cleaned out the rabbit, emptied the hoover & the cat litter tray. Unfortunately, I didn't realise that I didn't have any cat litter
so I have left the cat outside, just in case (much to her disgust!!) I cleared up the kitchen a bit & put on the DW before I went to bed, so I need to empty that & wash up a few pots. I think I may pop to Aldi's on the way back from the playgroup, as we have no bread & I can't be bothered to walk to the co-op (I don't have a raincover for the LO's buggy).
Catch you laters

I am Out all morning but managed to vacuum everywhere bar the bedrooms before school today and all the rooms are generally tidy. (except the bedrooms. Lol) hoping that dinner will be an easy one tonight which will leave me more room for cleaning later. Sticking with level one and some level two for the time being so as not to disappoint myself if I don't manage it. It's so easy to get lost in the whole FLYing message!
I haves even moved a box of babys toys into the lounge to
(a) give the older girls a bit more room and (b) ensure she gets a chance to actually play with them all.
It's actually really easy to chuck them all back in when she's done AND it makes the lounge look more colourful while not making it messy. As much as I love a tidy home, I also love seeing it looked 'lived in' which is what keeps me motivated rather than the show home my in laws want to see.
