Morning all :hello: Yes I'm up early again this morning to wave OH out to work, not quite 6am (it was 6.18 this time but another *sits bolt upright* "I'M AWAKE" moment :rotfl: ) Hopefully we shouldn't be having this next week as well, I'm hopeful that OH can get tomorrow afternoon off work and be able to take the car into the Ford Centre. *crosses everything* Fortunately he's not as indispensible as he used to be now there's another technician (Oh the difference at home is amazing
) so we're just awaiting the Headteacher to say "Yay" or "Nay" :rolleyes:
DD is up already - I know as the bathroom door has just nearly come off it's hinges the way she shut it otherwise I would have thought she was still in bed. If she was a teenager I could understand some of the slamming/sulking/moaning but she's 6! :eek:
There I am, digressing againRight, I'm looking over Lil_me's list for the week (if it wasn't there to remind me to do things I wouldn't do them at all
) so lets see :
RIGHT, my plan of attack for today (and only because I didn't do any cleaning last week, and I've got a busy week next week with all the ebay items finishing & a governors meeting, plus I've got a website to finish which includes trying to work out some Javascript:eek:, before I get rapped across the knuckles with a wet microfibre cloth) is going to look something like this :
- Dailies
- Washing machine - underwear
- Evening meal - sauage casserole in the slow cooker (packet mix)

Declutter Mission Task
This ones up to you, a drawer, a cupboard or even a room you have been avoiding, time to declutter it! Even if it's just for 10 minutes
Right, I think I can do this today!! Sorry I haven't posted but I look at the list each day and then at the other things I have to do: work, hosp appt, meetings, etc etc and most days I manage only level 1 or some level 2 tasks. But hey, I keep going....
Maralum I hope you are getting plenty of rest and help around the house, you look great! Wish I looked liked that when my DD2 was born. the hospital photographer wanted an official photograph of me and my newborn DD2, 2 days after giving birth, because she was the first baby born in the new maternity unit:eek: I look pale and exhausted but with a nice serene smile on my face (we got presented with the photo at the official opening of the unit) Owen looks so proud of his baby sister, long may it last!!
well, if I want to do all the tasks today I better get on with it, lots to do today apart from the cleaning and Thursday evening is netball match, piano and Guides for my girls so out all evening with mums taxi service
Have a great day everyone:wave:

Glad your back's feeling better pooh beah, i'm feeling less grumpy today as my back seems to be on the mend too!
Children at school and i'm not working today so going to tidy up and relax in equal measures....ok, maybe a bit more relaxing than tidying! Right, need to read a few posts and then go tidy. Think i'll aim for level 2 and if I acheive that i'll work on level 3.
Have a fun day xxJanuary budget

Hi everyone, this mornings review took over 2 hours, but think we got most points across, have told them I do plan to view other schools and see how things go. One stressful thing out of the way so time to tackle the next one. Never ends this parenting lark does it!
Anyway, haven't even touched the housework so I best do some, dailies first, then the list, oh and finish assignment, still not totally finished but have decided will hand it in tomorrow personally so will have to.One day I might be more organised...........
