Gosh you're all so ruuuuude!!!

B&Q purchased.. and I apparently shoplifted a packet of panel pins.. they kept falling through the gap in the trolley so I put them on the hood of the pushchair.. ringing them after dinner to pay for them otherwise OH will NEVER let it drop!

Dunelm purchased.. got a mirror for DD2s new room which is wonderful, I'm sure she will love it. and 2 huge duckies for the tiddlers and a few oven trays.. I did not get the pegs (they only had green ones and I don't like green and they were not a nice style either) nor did they have the lasagne pan I wanted .

I have a really sore throat today..

Gammon cooking in t'oven, should be scoffable in about half an hour so I'll fling veggies in shortly.

What is a girl to do with 7 stalks of brocolocolocolli?????

Wm emptied and bedding hung to dry, kiddies bedding put in now.

DW emptied and, filter cleaned, salt refilled, set on hot wash empty.

Tots fed currently eating ice lollies and squealing with laughter.

All beds done, dd socks sorted <fling> and boxes in top checked for what might fit her now (mostly sundresses up there now - she is all kitted out for holidays...)

Vacced under DS bed while had it out (vac not bed) after putting his little rail up. Also put his toy boxes under and arranged so it let light in from the window.

Later when tots are in bed I'm going to find a home for my towels. They are currently in the airing cupboard, as they were too heavy for the drawer under the bed. So I need to clear out the hamper at the side of my bed. In fact a whole bedroom sort wouldn't go amiss.

Also need to put some caulk down the stairs between wall and skirting, you could almost fit a finger down some of the cracks :eek: how did I not notice this before decorating???

But, I did promise the tots we'd draw some flowers so I'll go get the paper and pens together while they are still giggling over their stripey lollies...

Back from the pre interview with DD. There was 850 people for 50 jobs. We did a bit of shopping then got the bus back.

Off to put my tea in and want to do some shredding while that's cooking.
Must remember the bed needs making.

Thursday's activities - reporting so far

sinks, cleaned and bleached, remaining kitchen doors and kickboards cleaned
LR Hallway and Kitchen hoovered
LR v@xed to remove chocolate footprints on cream carpet (3hrs hard graft)
Kitchen floor mopped
Black sticky glue from Study floor removed off of DD4 baby bouncer yuk
DW loaded


Looking for my GUAG to take rubbish out for tomorrow before I try and v@x my bedroom and restore the carpet to some kind of normality.

DS is looking for ways to get stuff off a shelf over 6ft high in the air - shame DD1 is back soon, as I think soon I will have to have him in a room of his own and make it 100% DS proof. Having my room 100% KIDPROOF just doesn't appear to be enough :eek::eek::eek:
