    I'm not in as DH is still off work so he's doing everything which is a good job as the only night I'm in this week is Wednesday.

    Hope everyone's ok

    Well I've just read last week's thread from page 14 until the end!

    Hope you've all had a calm and peaceful weekend and those with poorly pets manage to get some rest.

    Thinking of LL - candle lit

    So glad this week is starting off with my two most needy rooms - I shall definitely blitz these tomorrow. For the first time in ages, I'll have the house to myself - kids will be at School and OH has been away in Manchester catching up with old friends this weekend and was too hungover to drive safely today, so is having another night at our friends' house and has to call at his cousin's house in Lancaster tomorrow after 6pm, so reckon he'll be back here about 8pm. Quality time.

    Also need to deal with a frog to the Letting Agency regarding jobs we "need" the Landlord to attend to.

    Been really busy all weekend with just me and the kids and it's been lovely, and they've been so helpful dealing with chores.

    Kids just going to bed now, so another hour or so to myself before I call it a day.

    See you in the morning folks

    I'm in again this week, hopefully the bathroom should be quite easy (famous last words :rotfl: ) as it's the only room that doesn't look like a bomb site as I've managed to sort of keep on top of it :T

    No excuses! I had to do the main bathroom yesterday. It's the side effect of 3 boys! ;)

    I hope you have a great birthday mumof2 xx

    DS3 is still coughing. He was off school on Friday and I know if I send him in they will phone me to collect him.

    I've been washing and ironing all day. Had lunch at my MIL's, it was lovely not to have to cook.

    Candle lit for lovely Lady Liberty.
