    Welcome j.e.j, jewels and melliec

    My filter is a little drawer at the front bottom right of the machine, open the door unscrew the filter (put a dish under water will come out) and give it a good clean before reassembling - search on line for your machine.

    Kitchen all tidy for the night, just need to reload wm.

    Tomorrow:
    DS2 to bank
    A bit of the paid stuff
    DS3 to cycling trial session

    I'll join in again this week if I may please? Just couldn't settle to anything last week - had a meeting on Thursday to see if I still have a job after our current 'restructure'. I was missing off the first chart then the second was hurriedly produced - there is a job on there but with a new title and 4 grades below mine! Of course this was produced just as I was going home on Friday - so have spent last week worrying whether I have a job and now IF that job is mine, looks like I have to take a hefty pay cut! Charming!

    So - housework will be a welcome distraction this week! Dogs and dog bedding has been washed and is pristine (and so are they!), bathroom was done today (it looked like a tornado had hit if after their baths ha ha!) so a bit of a head start for tomorrow!

    Off to watch the penalties now!
    :j Almost 2 stones gone! :j

    Evening everyone

    Please may I come back into the fold?! After a few weeks of loosely following the lists, I really need to come back and sort myself out.

    Leaving the house at 7.30 tomorrow and not back until 6ish so not sure how much I will achieve but, I need to have a good go at this for all our sakes. We need more routine and gain more control of our house.

    Meal plan for the week

    To prepare for tomorrow, I have already made lunches, got school bags ready, got their clothes out, put on a wash load (just finished) and emptied the DW. Starting well, hopefully it will continue.

    Thank you for the lists, and thanks for all the support on this thread!

    Mumto5.. ours is an 18th as well.. I was thinking something she could keep forever... but I have no idea what.. she had a locket she loves.. I guess I could get her a bracelet or a watch.. I don't want to get her anything baby related though. I wish I had got DS1 a passport.. he is forever being asked for Id (job applications, bank accounts, housing etc) it would be so helpful for him to have one.

    Monday jobs..

    Catch up on laundry.. it appears to have multiplied 100 fold since I went to the hospital on Friday!
    Clean hovelesque kitchen
    Drop baby stuff at DS1's and collect Henry
    Drop baby stuff at DD1's collect car seat
    phone calls.. solicitor, School (ds3)
    Buy tesco! I swear these lot are locusts!


    Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room
    Level One
    Sweep/mop the floor
    Level Two
    Clean the sink and shine the taps
    Level Three
    Wash the windows

    Ooh you will be very close, we are Stockport County season ticket holders so in Stockport regularly:)
    You could always call for a brew and a slice of cake (I have plenty of sugar)

    I didn't realise Bossy was up here too:)

    We are really really lucky for hospitals, you don't realise until you need them.
