    Lots of our crap from out front has been 'removed'.. very little left.. I need to either whizz to tip or arrange for council to collect.. might be quicker to do tip actually.

    Tomorrow I need to pick weeds out of the patio and relay 3 pavers and repoint the gaps... OH is digging holes and building a play house. We also need to do Tesco and I have a nail appt at 9 in morning... yes, I will get my nails painted then dig up the weeds :D

    Friday I am spending taking stuff upstairs to clutter the girls room and clear downstairs as much as possible and OH IS!! unblocking the loo.. I have a feeling it will be needed come Saturday.

    Just logged on to skim-read today's posts and wasn't planning to post myself; but I simply cannot leave without offering Mrs MP a (((HUG))) and sending a virtual lantern to light the little lass's way to the Summerlands.

    OH making cheesecake for Squeaks birthday... I am finishing Dots cardy.. I would have finished it but when it came to doing the neckband I realised I had done 2 left fronts.. so I pulled it all out and have redone it :D I'll get it finished tomorrow.

    Not heard anything from solicitor so I will ring and nag on Friday if I have nothing through before then.

    Tomorrow I have nail appt at 9.. dash to tesco when I get back.. we will possibly have to take Tiddles so we can't be long as she can't walk about for that long.. she usually ends up sat in the trolley, though I may just make DD2 stay home and look after her. I have an appt at 1:30 to open bank accounts for DD2 and DS3..

    I have to bake 2 cakes.. 1 of them is enormous.. 36cm diameter. and I need to go buy icing for them.. the big one will be a flower and the little (20cm diameter) one a ladybird ... I love a challenge!

    Then I can look at hovel tidying.. it doesn't really need cleaning.. just decluttering and tidying.. and I am getting there very very slowly. I need to arrange collection of rubbish, though I may take a lump hammer to the desk ;)

    Oh.. and I need to make DS3 an opticians appt. and speak to them about Squeak being seen.. OH is blind as a bat as are his dad and sister so we just want to make sure she is ok. She insists on sitting on top of the tv, couldn't see OH walking towards us until he was about 15ft away and looks at books with her nose on the page.. better to be checked and be ok than not and need specs.

    Bedtime for me!
