    Morning!

    Seem to be having a good day today :) healing vibes, hugs and love to all that need it!

    I managed to have a good nights sleep :eek: and was up early for a change.
    DD2 cried sick this morning so she's still in bed. Told her if she didn't go to school she couldn't go out for the rest of the week, so I guessing she really might be under the weather.

    I went to the P.O this morning, posted Bookmooch parcels, paid a bill (late :o) and the rent (EARLY! :eek: )
    So far I've done 1 load in DW, 2 loads of washing, the line and one airer are full and there's another load in the machine.
    I also have a big pile of wet and sandy stuff to do :mad: from where the girls both went to the beach yesterday. There is sand all over the house so they must have brought half the beach back with them!
    DD1 got burn so went to school moaning, she has her school prom on Thursday and Grandma is paying for her to have a fake tan done tomorrow I think it is ,so I don't know why she let herself burn.

    I have to take DC2 to the vet today, because he has n't been seen for 2 years they won't let me have any Advocate for him :mad:
    He has to have a different dosage than the other 4 as he's sooo much bigger, I better not have to pay for the check up :mad: the receptionist said I wouldn't.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I think I'll need to work at this a bit longer.

    I have a large kitchen and the floor has lots of corners with piles of 'stuff' in. So the 'if you have fifteen minutes then sweep and mop floor' isn't quite right.

    I have found a tub of ovaltine that fell down behind some carrier bags, and I had to clean out the 'beverage' cupboard to find a space to put it. I am about to clean out my tins cupboard to make room for the tins that need to fit in there and can't be stacked near if I want to clean the floor. Pretty soon I am going to have to clear out my alleged baking cupboard as I haven't baked since Noah and I need somewhere to put the silicone baking tins (that were bought for me despite me saying no) which are currently stacked under the kitchen table with a lot of other assorted rubbish.

    I am three bin sacks in - just doing the floor and the stuff that has come from that.

    Thank you lots and lots and lots!

    Also, on third load of washing. This means further ironing. I think HHI is another understatement. :D
