I've been trying to put some more music onto my ipod. I could scream - I've manged to get 2 CDs on - and the other 10 in the pile just won't load!:mad::mad::mad:

DD1 thinks my CDs are too old!

boddy - hope your DD is okay - that would have freaked me...

if you own the originals you are permitted to illegally download them as you have already paid to own a copy.. or if you email the record companies they sometimes send you out a freebie

Earlier did some gardening work. Went outside and put crushed eggshells in the soil of the strawberries to fertilise them, took dead leaves out. Took dead leaves off Pepper plants and gave them plant food. Basil plant rescued from Supermarket dead headed/stemmed them and gave plant food. Hoping soon plant food will be home made as will be making seaweed stuff.

OH is coming over tomorrow so trying to decide what to make tonight for tomorrow thinking lamb tagine type thing.

Boddy - I hope that action of some sort is taken about what happened to your DD and good on her for not thumping him, I probably would have.

4 baskets of ironing done and put past I'm about a third of the way through it now. The washing is coming in I'm clearing the kitchen of dinner mess and then quitting for the day. Will do the rest of the ironing tomorrow *groan*
Off to clear up see you in the morning x

Washing of clothes and bedding finally done (except the load waiting to go in the drier) :j Just towels, and dirty cloths/rugs to go in now which I'm going to do tomorrow as I haven't the energy to do more tonight AND I want to put them on the washing line instead of using the drier. Currently on the line are 3 tops of DDs which are full of tomato or chocolate stains which are covered with lemon juice and I'm hoping they'll come up cleaner as I'm sick of the same things going through the wash multiple times as the stains haven't come out even when using stain remover :mad: Then there is the rug & non-slip matting, which I'll throw in the wash tomorrow when I do the rugs. Actually I best throw the quilt/throws from the sofa through the machine as well. They're not smelling very sweet after DD has been on them sweating for 2 days

My ironing pile is quite big, but I can't face doing it tonight. Might do it tomorrow while watching something on the TV while DD does some homework. I will get around to doing other flying this week, honest.

Tonights plan: read some more of a book & have an early night if I don't fall asleep infront of the TV first. Will be back later to grab tomorrows list.

Boddy How awful for your DD. I can't begin to imagine how you feel. So glad to hear that she gave him a mouthful. Girl Power!

Narco - Ouch! Vitamin E cream is very good for preventing scarring. My appendix scar is nearly invisible.

Lots of flying done today but not necessarily on the list. All the windows are clean and Floors are hoovered or washed. All surfaces are clear and DH was visibly taken aback when he came home. (intended time of arrival 3.30. actual time 6.30).

I had my BF over today, she brought her three youngest with her. They played very happily with DS3 and DD2. We haven't seen each other for far to long so had a great catch up session. We are so in tune with each other and so connected in the same trials and triblulations of raising children (she has 6 to my 5).

More bad feeling with DS3, he's unrepentant about collecting the thrown mug. It's not a neighbours garden Dusty . It's the land where the approved housing development is going to be built. I regularly go on Bramble detection partrols to try to stop the spread of this fearsome garden monster!

DH is still in a foul mood about his ear operation and every conversation I start seems to end up back there. We have an appointment tomorrow eveing so I hope that puts things right.

Every feel like you can't say a thing right? That's where I am now:(

Nicki have you tried bicarb of soda or household soap? With bicarb make a paste with it and rub it into the stain then bung it in the WM.

I've gone through a couple of bags of paperwork, made the Christmas Card List for this year and thrown all the cards that I've had for the past two years barring family ones from last year. I have a very small pile of shredding that can be done tomorrow.
