    Have e-mailed teacher - fingers crossed for a speedy response.

    2 washloads done - there is no wet stuff falling from the sky so I will go and hang it out......

    am washing loads of towels today - can I ask how often other people change towels in their houses? I have 3 kids who seem to think that dumping used towels on the floor is ok - and that a clean towel is needed virtually every time they wash their hands....

    Morning all,

    Got up late but DD2 managed to leave for school on time :eek: I'm wondering how long I should leave DD1 in bed before I wake her up and tell her to help with the housework :D
    I forgot to get the washing in yesterday :o it rained last night :(
    Looking round the living room doesn't look to bad just a bit junky so it shouldn't take long.
    I am going to make the girls sort their room today though cos it's a pit :mad:
    First jobs to do, drink coffee then load DW, airer & Td

    I thought I'd pop back in and try and start a more organised week, I have been trying to keep up as much as possible in the last few weeks since joining, but even if I do well the whole house is like a bombs hit it after the weekend, has anyone got any tips on how to train Dh and the kids to tidy up after themselves or is it too late now! :D

    Morning All :wave:

    Thanks for the lists this week Juliejim. Well my wee cheety cat went to heaven on Friday, I will miss her terribly. :(:( We were away all weekend which I am glad of as it would have been harder being in the house. It was hard coming home though as I was looking for her in her wee places and the same again getting up this morning :(, I need to console myself with the fact she is now up in heaven chasing mice like she used to and pain free. House was all done before we left on Friday & we went out for dinner for Fathers day then kids went to bed so should be easy to keep on top of this week. Plan on emptying the ironing basket with HHI’s every night.

    Bossymoo - did we miss your birthday over the weekend?

    no, it isn't for two weeks yet, but out of my five close friends, four of us have birthdays within 6 weeks of each other, and Saturday was the only date we were all free for a joined up get together. I drank far too much pear cider, which I've not had before, and dd woke me up at 4am :eek:

    Lol

    ETA sorry about your kitty cat macpep x

    Thanks Juliejim for the list, and thanks Pigpen for your kind words last week :)

    DH had a week off to look after me after my op, and used it to swop the kids bedrooms over and decorate the hall. That was 2 weeks ago, and its still chaos now. DS2 wont get rid of anything and his furniture collapsed when DH took it apart. So today I am going to fill a sneaky bin bag of rubbish from his room.

    Other than that I am going to aim for level Ones this week, plus cooking dinner from the meal plan every night. And a short walk for the dog, whos been very deprived lately :(

    morning all
    hope all are well and had a reasonably good weekend
    sorry tohear about your poor puddycat macpep, we lost our cat roger almost a year ago so i know how you are feeling, wed had him about 14 years
    bossy hope you arent feeling to fragile today and you manage to get some rest during the day.
    got a lvoely text/photo from my brother yesterday one of his twins is still in hospital but they had a lovely family day together.
    its heartbreaking that shes 8mths old and has never been allowed home so they are pulled all ways and spend a lot of time split between the little one at home and the one in hospital so it was nice to think they could spend a day all together. must ring mum later for an update as she was also with them. already told DH i want my birthday outing to be visiting my niece he always takes me somewhere and i cant think of anywhere id sooner be this year.
