Hi everyone,
Back here again,
no supply contracts as of yet so I'm trying to keep myself busy and not worry too much! I have been cleaning for britain. have sorted summer clothes and put away, got winter ones out. Sorted garden.
Next jobs are to paint the fences and decorate the hall stairs and landing so I am hoping the agencies find me some work pretty quickly or I'll have to start that!:eek::rotfl:

Afternoon all,
Am in desperate need to get control of the housework as we're moving from a one bed flat that always seems to be messier than I'd like to a three bed house. At the moment I despair about how it's going to look so hope you wonderful flying ladies can help!
Just so happens my kitchen is the messiest bit for now so that works out perfect!

Congratulations Roxy! so many flybabies ATM
Very best wishes for tomorrow LSD.
Valli I hope you get to grips with your new week quickly
I overslept this morning after last night's trip to hospital. It was a mad rush to get the lunches made. I had a lightening shower and got everyone to school on time.
Poorly MIL was visited and I flew in her bathroom and bedroom for HH.
I've been to paid work and my lovley lady let me go 2 hours early as I've so much on my plate ATM. DH is working from home so we had lunch together before I returned to MIL to deliver the freshly washed and dried bedsheets.
I've done HHI and and am about to commence another. WM is on it's 4th load.
DH has done most of the list without realising it. Lucky me! Will update list now

Why is it that it always looks as if it is about to persist it down when I have to go and pick the kids up from school?Cross Stitch Challenge Member ?Number 2013 challenge = to complete rest of millenium sampler.0

Oh, Mummyyof5. So sad. Hugs all round. I realise it must have been a shock especially for the children, but how lovely for Amber just to have gone to sleep. I always hope mine will, but they never do and I have to make the decision for them.Better is good enough.0
