    Been very good and have eaten some frogs for a late night snack.

    Off to bed now. See you all tomorrow.

    Disgusted to say I still have a molar that DS3 lost at least 2 weeks ago sitting on my desk (with some chocolate kisses wrapper, a hair clip, an empty lipgloss, a box tops bit of card, a bookmark, and a picture of a flower I want to grow this year).

    Morning :wave:

    Oh what a difference an alcohol-free night makes! Normally I'm dead to the world until I have to drag my sorry butt out of bed and do the school run, but I've been up about 2 hours and made a list of 26 things to achieve today in addition to "The List". Place your bets on what time I will flag big-time!!! :rotfl:

    Will do another hour on here until I can start to make some noise :D

    Have a great day everyone and to Natty and Dusty, I forgot to say "Thank You" earlier for the lists.

    I wonder if this alcohol-free energy could catch on?

    Dorajar - great news on the car - shame we all can't have that luck every month, eh?

    :oHi

    Can I sneak back in please??

    I've not been around for a long while do to work and then lingering illness. However, a dear friend of mine came around yesterday and helped me clear the house top to bottom. I was VERY :o by the state of the house but accepted the help and I am so pleased :D I just have not had the strength to keep on top of it with being ill and DH and the kids haven't helped. But now, all I have to do is clear out the playroom and clear the ironing pile (which is just about every item of clothing we own) :eek:

    Monday Madness- Bathroom and Study/Pc Area
    Level One
    Clean floors in these rooms
    Level Two
    Clean baths, toilets, don't forget under the rim! and sinks

    Wash your bathroom mats, nets, clean blind/curtains etc
    Wipe down tiles in bathroom.. defragment your pc while doing this.

    Clean shower screen/curtain if you have one/if required
    Clear a mega hotspot!.. shred it.. and fling it.. or just burn it!


    Extra mission: Pick whichever you want to attempt:

    • Wipe the skirtings, door and window frames in these rooms
    • Wipe down the doors and frames in these rooms.
    • clean the radiators in these rooms
    • Fling all those empty bottles and tubes
    • Replace sponges/flannels/toothbrushes that are in need
    Please can we keep a candle alight for LL so that she doesn't suffer too much and can keep on fighting.

    Paid stuff

    Happy birthday Mumof2. I hope you have a wonderful day xx

    I've not slept well. To much going on in my head. Plan for today is to tackle the list and to organise DD2's birthday party.

    Keeping Lady Liberty in my thoughts.
