    Not got much done today as DD is at home as she's not feeling well. Medicine worked though so now feels well enough to annoy DS!

    So far

    WM x 1
    TD x 1
    Washed dishes
    Filed 6 years of bank statements altogether!
    Fed dogs
    Put meat in for tea.
    Lounged on here a lot.

    Not a lot else

    So I think I need a swift kick up the backside.

    Hi everyone.

    Having a bad start to the day, have been throwing up all morning. _pale_ Hopefully I've stopped now as I am sure there's nothing left to come up!!
    Am gonna take it easy on the flying today - smell of cleaning fluids may start me off again.

    Hope everyone else having a good day.

    (((((MOGGINS))))) and to anyone else who needs one. ;)

    Well, since posting I have managed to have some soup for lunch - and keep it down. This encouraged me to tidy the kitchen a bit, and I've ended up doing a 'proper job'. It's amazing what you can achieve when you don't feel well. Anyway, gonna risk a cuppa (first of the day!).
    Hope everyone elses' day is going well. Will pop back later.

    Hi Ladies

    First Moggins - sending you lots of hugs and positive thoughts - please listen to all the good things that have been said about you and dont allow yourself to be brainwashed into believing you are anything other than fan-bl**dy-tanstic!

    Well not off to the best of starts for me. DD1 still complaining of ear ache after week of antibiotics so off we trot to drs. Apt time 10.06:confused: got in at 11.00am:mad: Ears worse than they was so now have drops too. My poor little love, out of the last 5 weeks she has had ear infections for 4 of them.

    jobs done today:-

    S & S bathroom
    Bedrooms aired and beds made
    Lounge hoovered and dusted (telly, dvd shelves etc)
    Windows cleaned inside and out :D
    Cleaned down front door (inside and out)
    Plants potted up and placed outside front door (a la house doctor - viewers lined up for saturday:j )
    Emptied sandpit of sluddy sand and moved it to cover patch of missing grass where little tikes house used to live;)
    Rearrange second patio area (looks great:D )
    Moved BBQ to above area and chimanea (sp :confused: )
    Swept patio area
    Hosed down patio area
    Parcelled up 6 ebay items to post (not made it to PO yet)

    Still waiting for conservatory bloke to turn up and find out why water is seaping in underneath. Looks like it is gonna rain any min after it being dry so bound to turn up as first drops land so he cannot fix it:mad:

    Will put WM on and leave stuff on airer to dry overnight
    Put BM on - before bed


    Actually now I have listed it I feel like I have achieved something today:D

    Happy flying all

    Been a real little OSer today

    Made cauliflower, potato, leek and mushroom soup, HM bread, rice pudding and jellies.

    Was out all weekend and glad to be home, and no viewings tonight - some peace:)

    Cleaned my living room this afternoon and did a few dailies like toilet and kitchen swipe..

    Am tired, but determined to get back into the flying after being so busy last week I didn't have time for anything!

    My DD1 came home from school today, looked around the living room and asked: "What happened?"
    Me: "I cleaned up."

    She: "Did you move some furniture our or something? It looks really spacious here!"

    :rotfl:

    I am happy that my new dresser is still looking good and hasn't collected any crap on it yet. :D

    My kids don't like me today because I have declared their computer "broken except for homework purposes." My DS (aged 16) shrugged at the news and ploinked his behind on the couch after which I declared that the tv was suffering from the same ailment. He then thanked me for ruining his day and stomped off upstairs.. hahahahaha.. what a mean old mom I am!

    oh well

    I feel very sunny and bright, as my Dearest sister has offered me a week's retreat in beautiful Scotland in April!! WHOOHOOOO.. it'll be just me and the baby going. What a joy!

    Soo Tea is cooking (beef, stir fry veggies and roast tatties)
    and I'm having me a cup of tea.

    Thanks to Lil-me for taking care of us..

    my thoughts are with Moggins, hoping she is doing okay.
