house be a bin... left ear really sore again and the side of my face is swollen.. I have poked all the side of the face and neck and inside my mouth and I cannot locate the source of the pain..
Ooh, i had something similar during my exams, was awful! I couldnt actually open my mouth properly, struggled to eat anything that wasnt really thin:rotfl:
Inside at the back of my mouth was very tender, just kept gargling with mouthwash, eventually went away.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -
I'm giving up on the idea of cleaning the fridge, it's just too much for one week
On the bright side, so far this morning I've done:
- three loads of washing
- hung two loads out on the line, the rest to dry inside
- realised that our kitchen tap is about to disintegrate (EEK!)
- S&S bathroom and kitchen
- finished list from bathroom yesterday
- done dishes
- emptied bins
That'll do for today I think!

So far I have sorted the laundry, shoved a load in the WM, cleaned the utility room sink so it is fit to use, and done some clearing in the shed so that I can put all my cousin's decorating stuff in there and out of the way. This meant sorting out quite a bit of wood which had just been shoved in there by helpful men :cool: and needs cutting smaller so it can be bagged up. Log and kindling baskets are now full - hopefully the fire is the only heating i'll need from now until next winter.
Need to go to the tip sometime and drop off my dry cleaning.
I guess I should start gathering up the decorating stuff to shove in the shed, as at least then it will be out of my way...0 -
Hello everyone, hope you are all well xx
Been busy here but not with housework, I'm afraid!!
After our 2 weeks holiday I started a new job in the school. Now, as well as working lunchtime and breakfast club every day, I'm doing 4 hours a day one to one in the class.
As a result housework has taken a back seat
DD is out with Brownies today, and I have done 2 loads of washing and some ironing. I have also popped to the shop for a few bits.
I'm going to try and get some of the list today before DD comes back and try and get into some sort of routine!!!
Thanks for the lists JJ and for the support from everyone here xx

Dot down for a nap...
Anyone fancy joining me for a big fling and tidy session? I have to make a difference to at least 1 room today!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
The biggest shock has been the change in DD. She has changed into a carbon copy of her father - aggressive, abusive, violent even - and most likely with his encouragement.
All I can say is that she's going to have a shock when she wants something and it doesn't fit in with what he wants or thinks people of what he believes is his social class should do, when he realises just what she is like, or, most likely, when he realises just how much she costs.
Whatever. I'm more sad for the person he appears to be moulding her into, as that person isn't likely to have a happy life, they're going to be continually resentful and angry at the world, always looking for the faults and negatives of anything and never just relaxing and going with the moment.
Anyhow, I baked some bread this morning. There isn't much left. Or butter
So I have to go out and get more flour, butter and teabags.
Oh, and assuming the Ninja Kitten doesn't keel over from the string he ate Thursday (the vet said keep an eye on him over the weekend), I need to get some catfood as well.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
Sounds as though a :grouphug: is needed today.
I hope the pain goes away Piggers, that is just so miserable.
I hope you had a fabulous evening Bossymoo.
Today I am just going with the flow, my legs and balance have gone on holiday, so its a charriot day today:mad: I made up a cloth baby book yesterday and I just have to embroider all the babes birth details on the cover page, then the final putting together can be done. The tongue and groove for the chillout/gardenroom came yesterday, so DH is up in his shed, banging and sawing. He has s&s the kitchen and shower room, showered me and washed my hair, what :A he is. We were supposed to be going out to supper tonight but as my friends house is not charriot acessible we will have to stay in:mad:
Have a good day Flyfriends

Jojo you do need cat food if the poor thing resorted to string! lol. One of mine eats foil! It sounds a sorry state of affairs.. stupid KH and silly DD not realising you just want the best for her!
Miasnanny.. could you ask your friend to come do supper at yours>? I am sure if she is a good friend it won't be a problem.
Washing out
ear still not fallen off..
children bored and driving me to distraction with their whining..
cat demanding to be punted over the fence by constantly yowling at the wall..
