Morning all.
No time to type out my list today just yet. I've got a meeting with DD's headteacher about the school website at 9.30:eek: Was up until gone middnight drawing up some designs for it. Inspiration decided to hit at 8pm last night...only been trying to work on it since October :rolleyes: Funny what a deadline can do :rotfl::rotfl:
Anyways, after the school run (9am) I'll have time to put the washing out, change my top and head back to school :rolleyes: Hopefully I should be done by 10am BUT this man can talk for England so it could be later
Also need to go shopping today. We're down to 1 pear and citrus fruit 
Right, off for school run. Laters :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Find that box!!! You have too many precious little ones in the house not to have alarms up on the ceiling! ((hugs)) . . . just add that to your list for today LOLIf there is to be any peace, it will come through being, not having - Henry MillerM.A.C.A.W Member . . Wannabe Flybaby0
