    DS3 all settled in DS1 clean bed, house is getting tidier, landing now back to normal.

    Most of today's ironing done. Another duvet just through the wash so I'll put that on the line for a couple of days.

    I've also eaten a paperwork frog, more planned for tomorrow, much nicer doing it at the garden table than inside.

    I xan see stairs!

    We have been the victim of cat burglars. Well one, I think.

    I got chickne breast pieces 3 packs for £10 and cooked them all. I wrapped what we didn't have up in foil to cool, on th ehob. while we ate tea. DD walked into LR telling me old cat was 'eating something big on the floor'

    She's selected THE LARGEST one, unwrapped it (?) and taken it to eat. So I picked it up and chppped it for BOTH cats. They have eated it. Floor has been mopped twice now - and it was cleaned earlier.

    ps apols for typos it's dark and I don't have my specs...

    Did abybody sing 'My eyes are dim I cannot see
    I have not brought my specs with me' as a kid?

    Thanks everyone for your good wishes...DD2 is still quit, no crafties...just patches and willpower


    Had to retrieve DD3 from school after 20 minutes on Friday after being slapped with a day exclusion for being very very stupid :mad:

    Some flying done Friday as old friend came round with her rescue Lurcher/Greyhound/whippet cross.....took them down to the beach and had a lovely walk with DS and DD4 in pushchair with DD3 bringing up the rear...nice 3 mile round walk.

    Ended up with migraine from h£ll today, fed WM several loads of towels today to get dry nice and quick, and gave the main bathroom a severe scrubbing before the nausea of the migraine sent me back to bed.

    Feeling a bit dehydrated with the heat as DD4 is feeding almost constantly to keep her hydration topped up (when I could really do with giving her some cooled boiled water, she still refuses to use a bottle )

    I might stagger downstairs and have a little tidy up in the kitchen.....EX may or may not be coming to see the kids tomorrow as he has annual leave and "has things to do"

    Oh well, never mind......got a difficult week coming up, so will be dipping in and out
    The cold never bothered me anyway

    We had a nice bike ride today. 14 sodding miles! Dd is 11 and DS is 9. Pooped! DD was slobbing while I was chucking tea in so asked her to mow lawn. She did this without a riot so I felt it was only fair to knock £3.50 off what she owed me for her scooter upgrade. We normally pay less but she's little and all WE ADULTS wanted to do was collapse so I felt it earned a higher premium :o.

    Morning all I'm up at silly o'clock again. I've had the dogs out ( in my Jammies with a blanket wrapped round me, classy!) just stuck the kettle on for a cuppa.
    On the agenda today is to finish the couple of loads of washing I still have left to do, strip and wash my bedding and at some point get the ironing started but its a thought!
    Cuppa and my book for a wee while I think !

    Morning!

    Just toying with the idea of getting up... Then I will do upstairs flying (which is half done) and I want to get my hair washed too.

    We're out for Sunday lunch, although I have suggested a picnic instead, not that I have much in - maybe we'll stick with lunch, it has a wacky warehouse so kiddies can be out of the midday sun for a while.

    I will check over kiddies nursery bags to be sure they have spare shorts for this week if this lovely warmth is staying for a few more days :T
