    If you fancy an extra job, sort one kitchen cupboards/other storage area, what's lurking? Sort any out of date items if it's a food cupboard, make sure short dated items at the front. If it's a bakeware/tubs cupboard make sure all items have lids with them, check for broken items which should have been binned.

    Better that, then sitting in your bed hiding under the covers and being completely not available to your kids right?

    dunno.. bed is looking pretty appealing!!

    I just tried phoning him and he cut me off.. so I text him instead about DS's appointment. Wish I was a grown up!

    I'm not strong.. I am just stubborn and stroppy!! I'll be in bits in a few days you watch.
