Mumto5

Good morning ladies.

Today I plan to go shopping for last minute holiday items. DS2 has a dentist appt. for a filling this afternoon. DD2 has a rash on her arms and legs so I need to ring the dr. she threw a temperature Saturday and Sunday night so something is brewing.

DS3 is excited because the tooth fairy has visited in the night.

I feel more human now after volunteering at the London Moonwalk overnight on Saturday. It was really good and I hope to donut again next year.

Good day wishes to all.

WM is on
All washing gathered up, and waiting for its turn in the machine.
Loads to do in the house, so going to be attacking the lists hard to day and catching up on the areas I have been missing.

Morning all x
I've decluttered the weans to school well I actually got ds2 to take DD to school as of this morning it's his new job. He's 14 and does nothing around the house so if he wants pocket money he'll need to earn it plus it makes sure he's out to school on time

Need to square the scullery and the LR and do a tidy of the bedrooms and bathroom. Suppose I will stick a wash in that will be a starter for 10 at least

Ballet and BBs night tonight so will need to organise dinner early and I will do a shop while the weans are there. I need to phone a man about the roof and front door as they are leaking! Oh the joys of a Scottish summer!

I didn’t get much done last night, don’t know where the night went, DS put on a “Magic Show” for us, then DD decided she could do better :rotfl: (sibling rivalry, always got to get one over on each other) then DS announced that Monday night is now “games night” so snakes & ladders it was, before I knew it, it was 8.30. :eek: I didn’t get any ironing done tonight so will get some done tonight whilst catching up on 2 x Hollyoaks

Grey, wet,windy & blustery here , I have had to look my scarf back out

Welcome JellyBox. A tiny bit every day makes a big difference eventually. My first job is always putting things in the right rooms in the house, which can take up to 30 minutes.

Weather forecast for here today is:
- unseasonably low temperatures
- gales
- snow.

Oh joy.

Good morning all :wave:

Since I got up at 6.30 I have
- dusted and hoovered all through ground floor
- mopped the kitchen floor on my hands and knees
- cleaned downstairs WC and utility
- eaten breakfast (prepared by DH :A)
- put away clothes that were airing downstairs overnight
- with DH's help, stripped and remade our bed
- showered
- cleaned ensuite thoroughly
- S&S'd family bathroom
- dusted and hoovered all upstairs and the stairs themselves
- put away vases washed by DH
- sorted washing ready for WM

....Result!!! :j

The last of the removals estimators is coming at 9.00 so I had to be ready for him

I have been keeping up with the thread, but my memory is like a sieve at present and because I've not made any notes about what's going on, I simply can't remember all of it. So rather than inadvertently leaving any individuals out:
(((Hugs)))
GWS vibes
Painfree vibes
Spoons
Sticks for BD
Good luck
in equal measure for all who need them at this time.

Must dash - I hear a car door outside.
See you later.....
