Morning all
Not caught up with the thread properly as I have loads to do todayDD was sick last night twice. I now have a rug to attack (its been out on the washing line all night to try and get rid of the smell), loads of bedding to wash, cuddly toys needing to be washed again and I have a Mr A delivery coming between 10-12
I'm just letting the ironing pile up until the washing is cleared as there's just no room to do any ATM. Also means I can't really fly (other than wash dishes, which is my next job) as there is no room! :eek:
I'm off to try and juggle the fridge in the hopes of making room for jelly (post shopping) so I can try and get something other than boiled water down DD since she seems much better. She's laying on the sofa ATM watching Sister Act and trying to sing along :rotfl:

Morning all,
Slow start again this morning; I really get into holiday mode sooooo easily when it's the school holidaysit'll be such a shock next week when they go back and we need to be up, dressed and ready to go by 7.50am:eek:
Anyway, just going to get the dailies done (and get showered and dressed as still in my pjs) then DD2 has a friend coming over and we're going to go to a nice big local park and take swimming stuff too as the weather looks like it may rain this afternoon
I think I'll get the girls to make a picnic whilst I get the dailies done and the house a little straighter....
So, coffee finished so I'm off forHHCstarting at 10; anyone want to join me?....

I'm livid. DS2 has thrown a perfectly good mug into the bramble maze next door because it had mould in. The said mug has been in his room for a week. I want to scream I am so angry.0

I have also pulled all the furniture out hovered behind, took all the seat and back cushions off and hovered underneath and turned and returned them. Popped to the shop for milk and butter, made and eaten morning snack.
Just letting food settle and then get some ironing done before work................0 -

I'm not surprised you're cross with him! Can you 'bill' him for a new one? My eldest DD used to leave her lunch box festering in her room for weeks and then they would have to go in the bin because the mould took hold and would scrub out; I got fed up of buying new boxes every few weeks so I started putting her lunch in plastic bags and when she got fed up with warm, squashed sandwiches she stopped taking lunch and used her Saturday job money to buy rubbish from the school canteen for a while. Now, she's bought herself a nice lunch box and packs it herself! Result!0 -
Showered, dressed, bathroom S&S'd, bed stripped and bedding in WM. need another HHC to get downstairs straight; anyone want to join me 11.00-11.30?0
