Pigpen you are being awfully quiet.

How are you doing girl?

Hope things have calmed down somewhat in your life.

Things are so quiet here!

So I'm just going to bore you some more.

It feels so good to write down what I've done! That is a motivator in itself!
Nobody here in my house cares, so I'll just tell you! hahahahahaha


I have cleaned the windows in the kitchen. Inside and out. Cleaned the door, and the catflap, so the cats can see their way into the house again for a change.
Cleaned the kickboards of the kitchen laying flat on my stomach to reach.. that must have been a sight.. cleaned the bin, around and behind the bin, and around the side of the dishwasher. Wiped kitchen cabinets down as well.

Gave the loo a good clean. It's smelling of pine needles now.

DH is busy witht he front door.

Still have to go out to do the grocery shopping. Something I HATE with a passion!!
I wish Lidl would do a delivery service! :eek: :eek:

I'm moving to Scotland I'll tell you!.. Get my shopping delivered by Tesco each week, eat myself silly on cream eggs, haggis and pie's and clean my house with Stardrops. Then I'll be also able to say things like "Wee bairns, and I cannea be arsed" without being looked at like my hair's on fire!

Well, coffee break finished again now.. time to go and annoy the people at Lidl!

Flying? Um, more like stuck on the runway in thick fog this week I'm afraid!

I've just about managed to do the dailies but not much else this week. Me and the littlies have all been struggling with the latest virus doing the rounds. I thought it was just a really rotten cold to start with but there's been ear and throats infections all round. Poor dh had to go to hospital on Tuesday for tests - no food for 24 hours before that and he felt !!!!!! afterwards.

So, I'm determined to keep up next week - new week, new start............

Afternoon xx

I'm just being quiet... and not here.

He has had this week off work so is 'supervising' lol.. we have done nothing all week.. we did pair up socks for an hour yesterday which was incredibly boring!! He has just gone out to get his hair cut. I need to cut the boys hair this weekend actually they are all looking like sheep.

I've paid a few bills, put some money in bank from my mortgage piggy, cleaned the kitchen and front room and actually kept them clean and tidy.. bar a few bits the chillies dragged out. I've had washing on the line even!!

I've had a lovely cold half of the week and my eczema is awful, probably the worst it has been since I was about 4.. no idea what is going on there!

I've written my school uniform list (7 children) which is about 2 miles long and I daren't even work out how much I'll need to spend! :eek: Thankfully I have coats for most of the children bought in the sales this year. It is mainly the shoes and trainers and football boots which cripple the bank account.

My towel radiator came on Wednesday and my new dishwasher is coming on Monday, along with the electrician to fit the light fitting on the landing and do the earthing apparently. Hubby is going shopping to rejuvenate his wardrobe next week so that should be fun and I might get some school bargains too!!

Anyway.. today I am helping move my sister into her new flat.. with my bottle of stardrops and my microfibre cloth!!

See you all soon
xxxxx

I think that's why most of us come on here as no-one else in our house is bothered!:D I don't think they even notice...............
:T Well done you - you've certainly done more than me today!

Pollybear

Nobody notices here either. And even when I tell DH what I've done he just grunts, doesn't even look up.

My daughter says it's not as dirty as I think it is, but that's probably so I don't ask her to help:D

You are very welcome, we do have a lot of good points.. getting shopping delivered would be such a good thing for you....just think, spend half an hour online (you're good on the computer anyway) and a nice driver drops it all off for you...

Eating all these cream eggs and pies are not so good for you!

Today:

WM
more ironing
[STRIKE]dishes[/STRIKE]
declutter kitchen
hoover
make dough in BM for rolls for HM burgers
[STRIKE]buy flowers for SIL and deliver[/STRIKE]
motivate kids to tidy their rooms.

Tidy up so I don't have to do anything tomorrow on Mothers day..

Hmmm sounds brill!!

If you see the amount of food that goes through our house a week! :eek: :eek:
I would love for somebody else to collect it from round the shop and deliver it to my door!!
I just got back from Lidl now. ugh... hate it!! busy shop.. full cart.. taking stuff from the shelf, into the cart, onto the checkout belt.. into bags.. into car... out of car into the house... :eek:
I do make the older kids put it all away though.. that is something I will NOT do!


Oh well, DH and his brother are busy with the front door.
Shopping is put away..

What is it with those men anyway? Mine will only grunt as well when I tell him of my cleaning efforts... but you should hear him if he sticks to the floor, or can't find a clean pair of socks!!

time for a wee sit down for me... But first I'll stick another load of washing on.


Happy Mother's day tomorrow you all.

I cannot believe that you can do 'nothing' all week with 8 children!
You might percieve it as nothing, but to the rest of us what you do is considered a LOT!!

Glad to hear from you anyway!

Becca

ps: don't you hate that sock pairing thing???
