    Thursday - Children's Bedrooms or spare rooms/rooms of Doom

    well, I don't really have a spare room, and no kids living here, so I think I will tackle the store-cupboard of doom.. Anything and everything gets thrown in there, - it's looking so-oo cluttered.

    Got some tasks from earlier in the week to catch up on still.

    Have a good day everyone :)

    Morning everyone. The only additional task I managed yesterday was the HH Paperwork. I combined shredding work stuff with home stuff as was working from home.

    Today, I've dusted the main bedroom, vacuumed the living room and walked the dogs. Now sitting here drying off as we got caught in a shower.

    About to take DS to college and then don't know when he'll next be home as he's working away full time. Will then start on the paid stuff again.

    If there are any positive vibes floating around out there, please send them my way. I am married to an alcoholic and today he is stopping drinking.

    Have a good day everyone.

    Morning all

    Jazee sending strength for you and your DH

    Jej well done for subbing on the list, I try to cover all houses but it's inevitable that some stuff is not relevant to all

    DS3 away to school and DH away to work. Other two still sleeping but I'll wake them when I go up.

    Osteo mid morning so I'll get the emails that I need to do done, then shower and see how much time I have left after that for flying. Must buy food today too.

    Glad to see your DD home PP :) recovering vibes on there way to her here's hoping she can enjoy being home with Samuel :) and his big cuz Fabian shouldn't be far behind now:) Have we no more pictures! I love to see how they are getting on. I've been a Nana now for two and a half years and can honestly say they've been my happiest. Nobody prepared me for the joys of grandparenting and I probably wouldn't have believed them. But it's changed me completely:) And watching your DC being and Mummy/Daddy words can't describe the pride:).
    Oh my word that sounds so sickly but you'll understand one day I hope:)

    Her OH is home all of next week so she just wanted to be home to have as much time as possible the 3 of them.. she barely sees him otherwise as he works nights and sleeps during the day. I said we will go get them next week so the children can meet him.

    Fabian is doing really well.. just starting to get him feeding, he has 3 or 4 tries a day at the moment but is still under 4lb so doing really well.

    You need to get yourself on my facebook.. I have loads! lol I have one of Dot in her new car seat

    Errand day for me and after the transport nightmare of the Queen's visit DH has taken the car to work (Olympic Torch disruption) so I'm on the bus. I can't postpone as I am delivering and collecting parcels.

    Lots more stuff flung. Why is it so difficult for the males in this house to wee in the lavatory? Also why does the cat always be sick on my best rug?

    Need to get a wedding card.:D

    DS2 is leaving old school tomorrow. :j

    Tots are being horrible. Snatching, stropping, squealing, spitting. Thank goodness mil is coming over. They will be butter-wouldn't-melt-angels the second she walks through the door.

    She is taking them to playcentre I think, so I will go fill the car up, and maybe vac it out. Driving to Chester tomorrow with mum and stroppy tots, for an overnighter. Going to the zoo on Saturday!

    My lists are far to long to bother posting :o

    Did I say that DD1 and her boyfriend of 3 years have split? Well obviously she's really upset and has spent most of her time crying. She was alot better yesterday but she's down again today :(
    I have the Dr this morning (my friend's coming with me as usual) and DD1 is going to the beach with her friends so I hope the weather holds.
    After the Dr I'll be back to tackle the lists 'til DD2's parents evening, my first appointment is at 3.30pm.

    Nicki ouchie-ouch! I feel your DD's pain!:( Healing vibes on the way (from one who has personal experience of something similar).

    Jazee posi-vibes by the barrow-load for your DH.:o

    I had a mad fit yesterday afternoon (after my parody-writing fling);) and did the bedroom and the spare room; so I'm very tempted to try and start on the carpet tiles. Only thing is, my steam-cleaner is one that you sling across your shoulder on a strap, and I'm not entirely sure how advisable that is..... On the other hand, if I wait for my shoulder to be better, I could still be waiting this time next year.:cool:

    I'll get my emails done, and the dough for tonight's pizza organised, and see how I feel then.;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
