[STRIKE]Collect DSD from piano lesson and pick up dinner from uninspiring mini Tesco -- too tired to drive into town to Aldi
[/STRIKE]DSD now going to Redditch with a friend straight from piano, saves me a 15 mile round trip and means I can nip to Sainsbobs this afternoon for a better selection
[STRIKE]Collect DSS from sleepover[/STRIKE]

[STRIKE]Clean scene of devastation in kitchen, sweep and mop[/STRIKE]
Vacuum throughout and [STRIKE]dust living room after clearing crud from Coffee Table of Doom[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Tidy our bedroom -- DVDs and makeup detritus strewn everywhere[/STRIKE] Dusted too
[STRIKE]Clean the bathroom[/STRIKE], have another go at the carpet down the side of the loo after DSS's exploits as I can still see a shadow of a stain Unsure whether there is a stain or whether I am just imagining it?!
[STRIKE]Fill a black back as I'm flying -- easily done, think the kitchen will achieve that on its own[/STRIKE] :mad:

DSD back from Redditch and bossed into dusting her room. Not impressed. Just wait 'til she hears what else I have in store for them all this week :rotfl:

Just got to vac and pic up dinner, maybe a cheeky Chablis too. Yes please.

Accounts !!!!!!

This made me :rotfl: I'm sure we've all felt this way about doing our accounts

Shoes bought for DS3, Moomin, Tiddles and Squeak!! Dot has new ones (£15 in the sale ) £240 later we came home.. I still need to sort DD3 out with shoes.. DS3 was told to wear his old school shoes to the shop and I never checked what they were like before we left the house but they were all ripped on the top.. so he got an ear bending about wrecking shoes!

1 thing less to do.. I'll possibly take her on Monday when I have the boys at opticians.. if I feel I can walk that far.. I might have OH pick us up and force myself to walk there... it will be the furthest I have walked since about April!

Pigpen - she is beautiful, I feel a little broody now!!

Well a little achieved today, general tidy round, hoovered, BUT did not venture into the ROD, it will have to be next week now.

Well for the 1st time in a very long while I have the house to myself for a whole 3 hours!:j I have my music on ( Andrea Bocelli, I adore his voice ), a cuppa in hand and hoping to finish my book, Bliss.

See you soon x

Kids party attended, DS had a minor strop - too much excitement for one small person lately I think. He's getting a bit of an attitude.

Sorted more laundry, just about there although not a lot of ironing done

Gave tots supper, story then bed. DS just called me back up. He's sad because he misses daddy. So I just held him, and told him if daddy was here he'd scoop him up in his big strong arms, hold him close and tell him how much he loves him. DS said "can you pretend to be daddy?" So I put on my fake gruff voice, and picked him up - cue lots of giggles, and me telling him to go to bed. He called again when I was halfway down the stairs and said "will you be mummy again now?"

And it's all gone quiet. I think we dealt with that quite well, and no tears! :T

Although I might cry if I look at the ironing pile

Dustykitten

Bossy have a hug for dealing with DS so well

Deco well done on the CS drop

Not done as much as I would have liked. Shower room is clean, crumble made and one for friend's boys which I have taken round.

DH hopefully on the lasst leg with DS1 room (can't believe we will pick him up in 36 hours, where have those weeks gone?)
