    Well I have some 'good' news.

    I'll still be around to fly with you in September:o

    Boo, hiss. The right thing will come up soon Valli. Just have to keep flinging mud for some to eventually stick. And sometimes dream jobs are not all you thought they would be :cool:.

    WM/DW done. Is it bedtime yet?

    Have to say, if I'm brutally honest, working F/T while being sole adult in charge of Villa Valli would have been a killer;) so, while being rejected hurts I think I can pootle along quite happily doing what I'm doing.

    a teenage BOY just walked past me, into the kitchen, carrying the pots he took upstairs...

    Valli that's good for us but is it good for you too?

    Small amount of flying done, concentrating mainly on emails, actioning and deleting - down to 172, want to be at 150 before I get up.

    Very little flying done apart from the dalies.

    DS3 has brought home someone elses swimming stuff AGAIN! Second time this week. DS3 has swum 4 times so far this week and it is playing havoc with his eczema. He has swimming again tomorrow.

    I'm still procrastinating with my bra decoration for Saturday night. I can't find the fabric glue and refuse to buy any more. The weather is changing by the hour but currently it's not going to rain and the overnight temperature is a very chilly 2 degrees.

    DD1's car is fixed and we can pick it up tomorrow. Bye bye 500 quid :cry:.

    Better luck next time Valli. I was disappointed that I didn't get the first interview I went for. I believe it's all down to fate. I've got a much more convenient job now.

    Tots decluttered to bed, EE on tv, yoghurt in hand.

    Kitchen s&s, and dr, but I haven't mopped the floors and am too tired now.

    Pile of ironing. Maybe I will do some...

    Freeglers have collected spare loft boards, headboard and mattress. Broken bed now in garage. Need to Hoover bedroom, as will be taking carpet up Sat.

    ETA ironing done, just put Harry potter DVD on and cracked on. Took an hour but all finished x

    Dailies done ..2 loads of washing done and sorted.

    All hallway decluttered 3 bags for CS 2 baskets of broken toys in bin and 2 baskets of outgrown toys put to one side for my friend to pick up next week..hopefully she will take pillows and huge bag of polystyrene beads at the same time..more flingage (love that word lol )
    Why do I find it so hard to clear out toys????
    Still need to do the 7 large baskets full in the LR...to be fair the 2 littlies dont have their own room LO shares with us and BabyD with DD1 so no room in bedrooms for toys.
