Afternoon everyone!
Well hormones seem to have settled down today (just as well as at work).
Left list of jobs for DH to do:-
Peg washing out when finished
Put next load in (didnt ask him to peg this out do you think he will if not written on his list:rotfl: )
Mow lawn
Put spare bed away in girls playroom
S & S bathroom
S & S lounge
Hopefully he will flick through with the hoover too.
Work is very quiet today so think I will do my meal plan up for next week.
SHIRLEY PARK - so sorry to hear about your loss.
Pigpen - enjoy the sun today so you will have full energy reserves for Monday!0 -
My husband would only peg the second load out if it was written on the list - he would say he didn't know if I wanted it out if I didn't write it down.
I've given up writing lists, I just do it myself now.
Making sausage and tomato pie for tea now, waiting for the potatoes to finish cooking so I can mash them. will be easy later when I just have to turn the oven on.0 -

have done 2 loads of washing today, one out on the line which i need to get inside in a minute, and the other can stay in the machine for now, and then i will see what the weather is like for putting it out tomorrow.
off to read the thread, then bring the washing in. Don't think i will be doing much else, not even cooking dinner, as we had a burger king meal. Not healthy, but it was a nice change.
Enjoy the rest of your evening everyone, think i may watch the DVD rental that has been sitting on the side for about 2 weeks

Lil_me please can we have the master bedroom earlier in the week next week when i actually have the energy to do it?Millions long for immortality who don't know what to do with themselves on a rainy Sunday afternoon.0
