  • Morning all, feeling very tired here. DS3 wouldn't go to his own bed so once he feel asleep i moved him. Have to get him back into his own bed tonight and to bed at a good time. It will be fun..:(

    Anyway, hoping to get a good bit done today again, plan is to have a tidy house by friday and then we're away for the weekend. Hoping to bring bicycles and all with me. :rotfl:

    Pigpen i think you have caught your DD out.

    Right cuppa and i'll get the boys up.

    Upstairs all tidied earlier today and rather than flying in the house, I cleaned the car out after the tip run and gave it a treat as I had offered to drive a friend to see Les Mis!rables tonight (wow, have you seen it? Two and a half hours of Hugh Jackman - will have some lovely dreams tonight!!!)

    My nephew's in it!! :j:D
    Ok he's only an extra but he's still in it, I'm such a proud Auntie :D Still haven't been to watch it yet though :o

    Morning all

    TMD you don't need paper cases with the mini muffins.

    DS2 away, DH about to go so time to wake up DS3.

    Can't decide what to do today, have a sore throat so may just pop to the shops but mainly be here fluttering.

    Morning all :D

    Pigpen Definitely sounds like you caught her out :rotfl:

    Well DD and I both overslept again this morning :o She climbed into my bed to listen to the news at 6.30 as her feet were chilly and the next thing I know its 7am :eek: Chased her to get her breakfast, I stretched to ease my backache and it was 7.30:eek::eek: However DD still managed to get sorted and out by 7.45!!!?!?! How I have no idea, but she has eaten, and she washed and stuff so I'm impressed again :)

    I was supposed to be going straight out this morning with DD to hit Mr A's before all the parents/students but my phone was on 2% battery so I'm waiting for that to charge before I go. Then the plan is to get the ironing done, and clean the livingroom since the bathroom won't take long :) Off to juggle money around accounts. :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!
  • Good morning ladies :beer: My first job this morning was "decluttering" a jar of HM damson jam from the top floor onto the kitchen tiles below :o I've swept up the sticky glass, but need to mop, and wash my slippers :o

    I've made pancake batter (off to see Life of Pi this afternoon, so no time later) and been for a run, so will have a shower, then start cleaning windows ........... skips off humming ukulele tunes :whistle:
