    Decided on a bit of pottering in my own garden. Moved some pots around, planted a few bit out, did a bit of watering. Starting to feel on top of the garden and quite happy with it. A bit more planting out, moving and sowing to do in the next week.

    Cricket in 90 minutes so I need to think about dinner and checking the route for tomorrow.

    Bossy labelling is a great job for Granny in my experience ;)

    have done washing up and s&sed the kitchen
    fed boys and am in second hour decamped in the garden with an ironing board and a huge basket of creased clothes for company.

    will be salad and new tatties for tea cant be bothered to cook

    HHC x2 anyone? im going to start another hour of ironing

    bossy laundry marker or sharpie pen on the label is as good as anything (and better than most of the cardis and sweatshirts have that i trawl round school with at the end of my lunchtime shift)

    It's hot and humid, so despite a rare quiet day of the paid stuff, I've done no flying. Sorry.

    DD is home, complaining she's so tired she wants to go to bed, is biting my head off at every opportunity and did catch the sun, a slight tan most places, but on her face its more a case of all her freckles trying to join up :rotfl:

    Flying wise, I've decluttered a bath to try and wake me up, put clean towels in the bathroom and now I'm trying to do accounts again but I can't focus properly so its taking a while. :(

    mouse buried, mousehouse clean out for last time, need to decide if it its going on freecycle or in attic. in all honest im voting for freecycle as im the carer of the pets but ill will give everyone the choice later.

    We took our small animal cages to the RSPCA; they get little furries dumped on them.

    next door's garden watered. (Pots) been to Mr Ms as we had (and I quote) NOTHING to eat.:cool:;) DD had a LOT to say to me when i waled in from work tired, and hot *sigh*. Once she had calmed down I suggested she might let me get in next time;)

    Am working Friday so might not be around tomorrow *kerching* (much) as I have a lot to do. Have fetched paint-pot-washing cloths home form work and a towel I found. I need longer days - and less sleep.:rotfl:

    Bossy -

    If you have embroidered, fabric labels then copydex is EXCELLENT for gluing them into shoes and plimsolls.

    And, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. And I won't be the only one. Being shouted at by a parent because an unlabelled top has gone missing (after PE) is not nice. Was it MY fault they CBA to label it then expect 7/8 yo not to lose them? I've known children dress in the first clothes they pick up.
