I've already:

• chased a fox away in the garden (brazenly sun/snowbathing on my lawn)
• played with baby

KICK!!

Though why I feel entitled to give you a kick when I need one myself I don't Know...............:D

Not done much this morning....surprise, surprise! I am trying and doing things gradually so I don't feel like I'm leaving a bomb site when I go to w**k at lunchtime.

Pollybear

Done my dailies. Washing was dry by 11am :O So windy here but sunny too.

Asda shopping delivered and put away.

That's about it for today. Not feeling very motivated but it's honestly not that bad here. Still got cooking and washing up to do, obviously

Ladygrim - the alarm clock you need is a 2 and 4 year old (or any toddler/baby age for that matter). If you are interested I have 2 you can borrow for a week so you have a week of early starts and I will have a week of solid nights sleep followed by lie-ins until 7am:D

Honestly, I wont even charge you for the hire - so what do you think??

I have done SFA to date

Got kiddies dressed, fed and dropped 1 at preschool
Came home did breakfast dishes
Hoovered downstairs
Picked up mountain of paper DD2 had cut to pieces (who needs snow outside when it looks like your kitchen has had a blizzard:rolleyes: )
Sat down with DD2 and watched 1/2 of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - must have watched this about 30 times since we got it a month ago but scarely i dont actually mind watching this over and over again:eek:
Chatted to friend for half an hour on phone
Legged it to pre-school to collect DD1 - had to run some of the way to make up time spent on phone-call:p
Got insurance quote for mum's property - saved her over £100 :j
Looked at flight details for Dad


Well looking at the list I did get some stuff done so not all bad news. Maybe a coffee will help get me going.

Hope everyone else is doing better than me but I just have cannot be bothered head on today

pigpen

I AM FREEZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will someone PLEASE turn the planet heating up??
