    Things you need to do on a daily basis eg wipe the loo...

    All the animals are now sorted. gerbil cages cleaned (I figured no point cleaning the LR, where the cages are, with a scruffy pet corner) and I have cleaned the standby cage and the animal carrier too. Washed cat litter tray.

    Mum has been; she picked up DD from school and took her for her emergenceny dental appt for me, as my car is away.

    Now need to crack on with LR

    Oh I pegged out some washing, too..

    Thank you. So (excuse me for being dim) are these your own personal dailies or is there a list of dailies on top of the different daily lists that are posted on here?

    Hotspot corner cleared and under my chair... I am quite dead now so having a sit down on the small amount of my chair I can fit on while I get my breath back.

    OH fed the girlies lunch.

    The entire room is now completely trashed... :(

    My ankle is still a little sore but I refuse to allow it to be an excuse.

    Broken plug socket in the hallway replaced (I found the new one)

    The sky has fallen in- Chicken Lickin. A couple (friends of DS1) have split up, so DS1 has no one to go to his prom with. They have to sit on tables of 8 and the tables of his other friends are full. Not to mention transport issues. He is now saying he can't go and is very upset.

    WMx4 done
    Dailies up to date

    GreenRecycling bin & blue glass box are now empty. I saw a pink topped wheely bin the other day and had bin envy. :)

    dancemum.. surely the 1 of the 'couple' that is his friend is still going.. one of them will just have to find a partner or they can have 1 empty seat on their table.. hardly the end of the world. My son went to an all boys school so very few girls at their prom.

    Middle room almost bearable again.. the kitchen however :eek:

    I have collapsed in a hwap though :(
