Just checking in to see what going on. DD is currently watching TV programmes (she loves W.I.T.C.H. ) so I'm going to finish off a couple of bits in the kitchen and then we're going to go melt those easter eggs. Letting DD have a real treat of eating all the middles...I expect to have one sicky-feeling child later Right, time to move the stereo and other things that shouldn't be in the kitchen out of there... the heater will have to be moved tomorrow when I make room for it under the stairs. :rolleyes:

Nearly there. Just need to [STRIKE]rinse and replace the oven shelves[/STRIKE], [STRIKE]clean the kitchen floor and finish washing the bin[/STRIKE]. And, of course, do my extras. That tar on the carpet is calling my name again.

I got lots of flying done before 8, but seem to have lost my impetus. I keep forgetting just how heavily pregnant I am. 2 weeks and 6 days to go! Tempted to give myself the rest of the day off, but if I don't finish my list, I seem to get a bit "antsy". Anyone else feel the same way?

I think I'll give my boy half an hour of pure "mummy" time first though. He's been a little gem today, so I want to let him know that I appreciate his good behaviour.

Welcome to all newbies, you'll find looking after your house MUCH easier with the lists to follow. Thank goodness for this thread!
