thank you for the company,
rang DD3, dusted and polished everything in the room. all clutter off dressing table and only proper stuff put back on.
went into DS1 room strippeed nand changed his bed (i missed that yesterday) cleared litter and dirty clothing from there.

going back up in our room for another HHC hoping to change our bed clear the floordrobe (there isnt much) and load the wm - theres a load in it to hang out then ill scrape the tatties and do some salad ready for when DH gets back. might even crack open a wine as it will be the first childless meal weve had together in yonks (apart from going out)

It just really gets on my baps

:rotfl:

Kiddies in bed, after a garden bath (paddling pool with bubbles ) they have both perked up this aft, DD is shattered but I can't get her to nap. And if I did she would be up half the night. What she really needs is to stop getting up so early.

Kitchen s&s after dinner, just some stuff on drainer to put away. Laundry brought in, will need to iron some :cool: and rest needs putting away. Toys are nearly all away, just a couple of bits in conservatory. Not too worried about that as they will trash it again in the morning...

Want to have a shower and hair wash later - lots of sunscreen today, feels a bit icky now.

Just looking at the conservatory end window, I did them all last week but the smears are horrendous. Used windolene with microfibre cloth. Might need a different cloth. Have some vinegar too...

But, :coffee: first

Aww Minnie, glad your littly is ok too x

So I washed the end windows again, the others will want doing too. Watered bedding plants and veg bed, swept bark back into its place, put laundry away. And that's me done. Just having a cuppa then will have a nice hot shower. Nails after, I think. They feel a bit scratchy. And some body lotion.

Might make tomorrow morning a bit more structured for the kiddies. They were bored and grumpy this morning, and bothering each other. So tomorrow I'll have them make a Father's Day card for gramps, and a thankyou card for their neighbour who gave them the tractor. Then they can have the playdoh and my chopping boards and cookie cutters.

That will give me time to strip the beds and get the washing sorted. The rest can wait till they are with the inlaws.

Oh I tried on my holiday dresses :T it's all good. I can see they fit loads better but just wish I could tone my tum up a bit...
