Its been a few days since i last posted but i havent fallen by the way side.

House looks so good now - had parents round for tea last night and mum was impressed with how good the place was looking.

Well done you! If my boys turn out anything like you I will be a very happy woman indeed. DS1 is already in training with his main job being the vaccuuming up of all 'dry' spillages. We had a little setback last week when he proudly announced that he had sucked up the entire contents of the dog's water bowl :rotfl:

I am so pleased, I managed to complete all yesterdays tasks, and in the evening with DH we replaced 2 fence panels and put in a concrete post as well, I love the lighter evenings.
So well motivated to do todays tasks, despite a cold.

Morning!

I was up and at it by 6.15 today...OH has had to get the train to work today as the car is in for service/MOT :eek: I wondering how much it's going to cost this time to put everything right. We can't really afford this, but we have no choice especially as OH commutes to work daily along 3 motorways or at least parts of, and we've just spoken and worked out it would cost him £8.20 DAILY to get to work by public transport, that with the £75 for us all to get to his parents place, I think we just have to put up with the cost of running a car :rolleyes: (Just worked that out at £2009 for 49 weeks worth of commuting :eek: NOT including trips to IL's! :eek::eek::eek: )

So, apart from worrying about what the bill will be this time around, my list for today looks like this :

  • [STRIKE]Dishes[/STRIKE]
  • WM

  • Uniform
  • [STRIKE]Packed Lunch[/STRIKE]

  • Hotspot - ebay pile
    
• Ebay
  
  • Dispatch 2 parcels
    
  • Type up more listings
• Kitchen
  
  • Washing machine drawer
• Living room
  
  • Dust everything, get those ornaments down, dust them, photo frames clocks etc too!
  • TV area - clean TV, cabinet, make sure you give the digi boxes/video/dvd players etc a wipe before putting them back
  • Clean the living room window, it's summer time so let that light through!
    
  • Vacuum, oh you lot love this one, inc sofas, under furniture you can move safely etc and those skirting boards
  • If the sofa needs a wipe do so, check those cushions incase they need a wash
    
  • Move anything that shouldn't be where it is, like that book, or pile of paperwork/magazines

Not doing too badly seeing as DD is at home as well as DS. DS is fine now but DD is off school because she's not very well. She's seems better today but still has a temperature - hopefully she'll be back in school either tomorrow or Thursday!

Well Done pigpen - knew you'd get the governor's job even if you do always put yourself down.

Hope everyone's well.

Catch you later.
