Hi All :wave:
Am back in again this week, thanks for the lists Natty, cannot believe its Monday already, weather was pants all weekend & I had a mountain of washing that I didn't do because I couldnt get it dried because of the rain.....back to work this morning & sun comes out :rotfl:I am 8-5 this week & DH is nights so I will see what I can get done. I am half day Wednesday for end of term church service, I don't normally go but this is DD's last one before going to High School so I imagine there will be a lot of teary mums. I finally took the bull by the horns & sorted the ironing pile so I now have a pile for me, DD & DS, DH does his own as I also do the bedding. We also have the dance show tomorrow night in the high school, all children in the school are taking part. The one they done a few years ago was fab, so we are looking forward to it.
Schools finish on Thursday :eek:

Good morning
I am in this week, thanks Natty for the lists.
I am up late todaybut I am ready to go now. I have showered and dressed. Just need to have breakfast. I will do that now then have a blitz in the kitchen. WM is on, so I can't do a clean cycle yet, and DW is full (need to put that on after breakfast).
I will post lists later
DH has been up early & applied for a few more jobs this morning. I have been dipping in & out of panic mode re money over the weekend. We seriously need to cut our petrol :eek: We had been using about £20 a week (maybe a bit less), but for the last month it has been nearer £70!! :eek::eek:
Ok - breakfast...0 -

Hugs to Mumto5 - sorry I missed that out first time around this morning.
Big pile of gibble sorted and put away, WMx1 and all the ironing has been done - which makes me a bit of a saint, because I did OH's as well. In this house, we each do our own.Better is good enough.0 -
Kitchen surfaces wiped, fronts of cupboards & large appliances wiped, oven cleaned (:eek:), washing on line, 2nd load about to go out. I am now toying with the cleaning the fridge out (can you tell I have paperwork to do?
)
I also need to go into town to get my niece a card and the last bit of her present (some canvasses from the W0rks). I may send DH though (it's his niece). I am going to do myself some lunch in a mo (todays main meal, as we are going over to BIL's & SIL's for niece's birthday). We are buying DD & DS a MaccyD's on the way over.
We were waiting in for someone to collect the sofa bed that sold on ebay LAST weekend, but they can't collect now so we have cancelled the transaction. I wish she had let me know yesterday as I could have relisted it for free! It is a FB group now, so hopefully it will go soon.
Ok - lunch. I will have quick look to see if we need anything in town while we are out.0 -
