Michelle, x

now 4:30, i've managed a bit of a go at upstairs but Charlie is giving me some grief with his teeth, and we have also missed having the longer nap, which i could really have done with. Well i may as well keep him awake now until bed time but the grumps are hard to get on with

Well I am shattered. Decided to sort out all the photos on the computer. Apart from the laundry nothing really needs doing today so I'm taking it easy, besides 6 loads of laundry (3 of which have to wait until other 2 are in) should keep me busy.

Lol wilf and lil_me! It must be one of those days.

Baby and DH are both asleep, so I'm just catching up while I can. I got six hours sleep last night :j !!! DH left Freya and I snoozing again while he took Owen to playschool, that's why I've sent him for a nap now. If anyone deserves it, it's him. He is now totally forgiven for the infamous bath foam incident!

Sadly, that means that I missed my picnic breakfast with Owen, but I think I'll jump in the bath with him tonight instead (he always has liked a bit of company in the tub!).

I've tidied Owen's room and will change the bedclothes in a bit, but for the second week running, I'll ignore the deep clean . Naughty Mara. Not that Owen minds, the dust means that he has somewhere to practice his writing without having to search for paper and pen :rotfl: .

Today I will:

[STRIKE]S and S bathroom[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]S and S kitchen[/STRIKE] DH did this one
[STRIKE]S and S sitting room[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Tidy my bedroom[/STRIKE]
Vacuum throughout
[STRIKE]Put washing on[/STRIKE]

I think that'll do it. We're still clutter-free, but the dust is building (DH doesn't like vacuuming as much as I do and my muscles are still too weak to do it). Good luck and lots of hugs to all. Wish you could meet my baby, she's lovely. Take care, Mara x

:hello: Afternoon

doing better today but just in a catch up sort of way.

About to swish and swipe and wipe family room/study.

Bedrooms are a bit out of bounds as DH is hooving the loft - I kid you not. 80 years of dirt up there, he has hired an industrial hoover! Hence I can't get to 2 of the doors. DS2 room I only did Monday so hope to get to Master later or if not tomorrow.

It started to rain here just as I took my first bite of a sarnie:mad: dashed out got it all in and now it is glorious again so will pop some back out.

Just popped in to say hi. I have been to a support group this morning and am off to a craft day tomorrow so boys are in charge of any 'heavy' flying. I've printed up lists for them. I need to get organised for tomorrow and do some light flying. What a great idea, me time and mine was already booked. First 'me time' in four years!!
