    OK. So now have appointment at 4. Need to have a sit down with myself and write a list of what I want/need to say!

    Better go find some water and some clothes, then will do something, anything, to keep myself occupied until 4.

    Don't think I'll be ready for any VIPs, or even non-VIPs by 11 mind! :-o

    Well, at least I can cross off one thing, as I have lit a candle for LadyLiberty. Thinking of her, and her family.

    I cleaned the downstairs toilet & sink yesterday :) Just need to do upstairs now (may get hubby to do it ;)) He has just scrubbed the hall carpet (again). I don't think the cat has reoffended for a week or so, so we are just keeping it fresh :)

    Busy day today. Working (have 5 children after school), accompanying a friend to the dentist this morning, then taking DD2 for a hossy appointment this afternoon. Hopefully we will be finished by th school run time!

    My frog list needs attention :( Some of the items on there have been there ages :o I have posted my lists in the hope that it motivates me. The photobook is for DD1's 21st birthday (which was last Friday :eek:), but we are not seeing her until half term.

    Ok - i need to get ready to go out, and check Miss T has been to the loo before we head out. Catch up later x

    Did you see this news item, Mrsgibbs? (The sheep have now been reclaimed!)

    My day has started with a rush and looks to continue that way. One important job DONE. The kitchen, bathroom and LR are tidy, but that's about all the flying for now. Will report briefly to base later today....

  • Will join in for the VIP at 11 :) I need to have a quick once over all round the house then get on with my studies until school run...

    Lovely, sunny day here so bedding washed and on the line; I love the smell of 'dried outside bedding and clothes'... Such a simple thing but always makes me smile ;)
