    Saturday: Son's swimming lesson in the morning. Going to see "Wreck it Ralph" in the afternoon followed by a meal at Strada (using our Tesco vouchers).

    Sunday: If the weather's good I want to jet-wash the patio and hoover up the remaining leaves in the front garden.

    love the weekends especially sunday as oh is off work he is self employed.

    It depends whether its winter or summer really. When its summer we cant wait to get out in the garden and chill or go for a picnic.

    I can confirm, this weekend will be winter.

    This weekend will be mostly DIY, we've got new wardrobes being delivered from Ikea first thing tomorrow, so we can hopefully finish our bedroom. Hubby can then mount our projector and 84" screen.

    Kids are on half term from today so don't have to rush around getting uniform sorted on Sunday. Sunday is Chinese new year so will make a hm Chinese banquet or dinner.

    Saturday - lie in, breakfast in bed, then chain myself in kitchen all day baking and making a big pot of bolognese sauce for the freezer. Then chill with a film and OH is doing tea.

    Sunday - ice some of the baking (I got new icing bits for Christmas and I want to play with them!) then feed it to OH and his parents and go over to theirs for dinner.
  • Tomorrow will be general pottering about and maybe watching a film. I also have plenty of college work, so I've put a couple of hours aside for that.
    On Sundays I do my grandparent's shopping (as well as my own), walk their dog and visit with them. It's also been my grandad's birthday recently, so we'll be taking his present round. Later we'll maybe visit a car boot sale,depending on the time.
  • Lunch with friend today ( with wine) so this evening will be as little as possible. Tomorrow taking eldest to a University open day, youngest is having friend's over. Sunday is church in the morning, and then I'm going to have to pop into town as youngest has broken her glasses and needs them ASAP for school. At some point I've also got to do the washing, ironing and mark a set of school books, plus do some planning for school.
