    Pain easing vibes on the way to LW.

    My claw hands are stiff and sore today. Just had my appointment with my practice nurse and I think she regretted asking if I was ok.

    I have been to Mr Ts for fruit & veg and cookery ingredients for DS2.

    I'm going to do another question on my frog forms.
  • Kitchen looks like a bomb's hit it - but I only cleared it after breakfast!

    I have made some carrot and ginger soup - and it was absolutely fabulous! DD1 liked it too!

    Got to move some more washing out of the machine and rehome what I ironed yesterday!

    But first - gotta have a cuppa...
    :jFlylady and proud of it:j
  • I managed to squeeze in HHI before picking up DS from nursery, but I still have a small pile of his collared shirts to iron


    anyone fancy joining me for another HHI? or HH something equally awful and froggy?:rotfl:
    The cold never bothered me anyway

    1 x bag to charity = £5 M&S voucher
    1 x bag to clothing bank
    1 x food shop + £10 off plus petrol voucher
    1 x full tank petrol = £9.90 off, £5 gift voucher for food shopping, free air
    1 x tyres filled with air

    Not a bad trip out, also got a few bits at Lidl. Tesco next time to use up my vouchers for there. I love playing the supermarket game. Plus a trip to Mr W with DS2 to use his discount card.

    Off to sweep leaves next and put cat bedding on the line for an hour.

    Flying - cleaned out the cutlery drawer

    Afternoon
    Gentle hugs for LW

    So far today I have;
    Shopped for food
    Shopped for Xmas
    Hoovered 4 areas
    Sorted our room
    Sorted DS's room
    Cleaned landing
    Cleaned Bathroom
    Cleaned our bedroom window - its a slanty ceiling and the window gets minging very quickly and I haven't cleaned it in months and months, it was so dirty the dirt was joining up to make a nice green tinge on the glass, its now very sparkly clean :]]
    DS's bed stripped and quilt in the WM
    DS's rug removed from his room and about to go in the WM
    DS's window opened cos he has a stinky room :]]

    Helen
    Projects made for craft fair - 40 :)
    1st fair on 13/4/14 :j
  • back for a lurk and a cuppa.....HHI turned into 4 lots of HHI - but I have a pile of 5 DD3 school shirts and a pristine pile of 12 little cutey pie shirts for DS that say it was worth it!

    I found a video on utube the other week that showed how to fold gentlemans shirts properly like those in old fashioned gents outfitters, so I thought I would give it ago today - the little shirts looked so cute it was almost a shame to put them in the drawer now - couldn't resist it, I had to say "AWWW, Suits you Sir!":rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Going to try and get DS down for his nap now otherwise he will be up and down through the night like a yo-yo :eek:

    how to waste an hour and a half-- walk the way your DS says he ALWAYS walks home from school stand waiting in the allotted meeting place for 15 mins till no more children from the school come out, go to hairdressers to check DS hasnt been their looking for you ask hairdresser to keep him there and start work on him if he shows up. ring house and older DS moby (who has a key) neither are answering. wander round aimlessly looking for DS decide to do something useful and pick up mils prescription and tablets then go back to hairdresser. Still no sign (and still no one answering phones) walk back home all the while looking for DS, Get home to find eldest on computer and youngest playing minecraft. aparently he hasnt walked that way home since year 7.
    my feet ache so i cant be bothered to drag him out to the haircutters now so ill put up with justin beiber till friday :whistle:
    at least i got mils tabs so not a total waste of an afternoon
