    Hi all

    Well, just been to the sports day at DD's new school (from September) and OMG. How dull! (sorry). Maybe it'll be better when she's in it. She did do one race when all the new reception kids ran, but huge fallout as she didn't win. :rolleyes:

    Am trying to sort lots out today, so won't stay on for long - had a huge row with OH this morning, which involved a 3 page text!! Anyway, he apologised, as did I but he then appeared with flowers - lovely thought but I bit my tongue about the money spent! :)

    Right, need to get sorted and it seems the only way is to write a list on here!

    *2 loads of washing - with have to use tumble drier :( as going away and it's raining now. ONE in washer, one drying now.
    *Tidy living room
    [strike] *Make list of things needed for weekend.[/strike]DONE
    [strike] *Pack all I can tonight[/strike]Nearly done but OH needs to pack :)
    *File papers
    [strike] *Cook tea & buy food for journey - from tesco so I can get the H&B vouchers if any left.[/strike]DONE- just going to get some cheap drinks from the shop and fruit as I've made pasta bake so I can have that as my tea again tomorrow night. Will buy some on offer/chepa crisps so that OH doesn't insist on stopping for junk.
    *Drink 2l of water - drank about 250ml so far - better get supping!
    *Forgot to add - IRONING!!!

    Think that'll do for now - will add anymore if I think of it.

    Sorry I've not been on many threads today - my head is all over the place!

    *Forgot to add - IRONING!!!Am about to go do that!


    Also put petrol and screenwash in car in preparation for the drive tomorrow, cleared out the car (full bin nearly of rubbish!!) and hoovered it quickly. Got DD's drawing tray loaded up and in the boot for the journey and snacks in bags. Now need to just add the toiletries I need tomorrow and the ironed clothes and I think I'm nearly done.

    Need to do some carrot sticks as well.

    oooh must remember to dig out a bday card as well.

    Right off to do ironing - aren't I a lucky girl?:rolleyes:

    Don't know about lucky! But ur definately organised! I've been trying to get motivated to do housework all day, but DS is at the stage where he's playing/interacting ALL the time during the day, and I just can't leave him alone!
