  • roxy I remember that joy, walking around with spew on your shoulder....

    Main part of LR completely de-gibbled in preparation for tomorrow's furniture shuffle & carpet roll-up. DD will be helping. I will need more bin bags for when I go through all the units...

    Off to stir fry something

    today I 'taught' reception.

    one child - just one - had
    two seperate headbumps AND was 'bitten' (his words) - by 'a bee'.
    He has clearly been stung by a wasp as his tiny hand was swollen...
    as all this was being passed to his daddy he ran away from him and almost got over the playground wall...a very fit teacher (;)) ran and 'caught' him...

    it hasn't been an easy day...

    this morning I left DS a note requesting that he empty the WM and peg out the washing.

    he didn't peg it out because 'there was already some out'

    well y-e-e-s

    but the line wasn't FULL - and one is allowed to peg out more than one washload at a time.

    Took a walk to the post box with the bundle to send some vital car insurance papers I've been sitting on. Didn't get to the end of the road before she threw up milk all down my cleavage. I'd forgotten all those hidden delights.
    All 15 min tasks done.

    milk is a fashion accessory in here... I think mine has reflux, I have been vomited on about a dozen times today I smell gorgeous.. not!!


    I aim to complete spams jumper today still

    pigpen I thought the same for a while, think I'm on sick number three, hiccups number two, going to pee while you change me and I really don't like passing wind constantly.

    Washing machine fixers turned up 2 hours late. Claim to have fixed the problem, currently testing it on some of the above soiled clothing.

    Going to do a HHC and try and get through what I can assuming tiny stays asleep.

    :A Not long until the birthday x

    I have spent the whole day clearing my bedroom of doom and can announce it is Spock & span now.

    Ds1 has gone to a party :eek: He wanted to stay over, boys & girls , I think not. Apparently I am ruining his life and the party. We have negotiated that I will collect him at 11pm.

    Ds2 & OH are playing Pokemon

    Conservatory cleared, tip run done by OH

    Hello!

    Been out most of the day - house is trashed - how???:cool:

    Left at 11 for swimming, back at 1.15, dried hair while DD watched Grufalo, out again at 2, she has new boots - struggled to squeeze on the 7 shoes :o she now owns size 9 boots. Oops. Collected DS on way home, got changed and straight out to meet friend for tea. Been back 30min just getting them sorted for bed, now time for a :coffee:

    I can see devastation all around me but it can wait for tomorrow... The good news is the conservatory is almost empty, and still a little room to play in garage :T

    Friend has given me more hand me downs for DD aww some v cute stuff. Might make her a jar of chilli jam to say thanks. Was going to do some this weekend anyway.

    Think I'll be in bed by 9 :o

    Away with the fairies :beer:

    So today I've been to work as usual, done all the usual cooking, washing up, 2 loads washing - also hoovered and mopped right through and been to the vet so feel OK about my progress. And the hoovering was much easier cos I'd done it not long ago, I can see this'll work if I can just keep up!
    Kitchen's tidy, time for a brew :D

    Ahh yes. Non basket sleeping only my chest is good enough here for the last few nights. I'll get what cuddles I can, eldest turns around when I try to get hugs these days.

    Upstairs hoovered, dusted, dd1 bedding changed.

    Right back from work and very tired, I think it must be the time of year, I just feel so worn out.

    OH cooked dinner, and washed up, and he has been to mrt's as well! all with out being asked.

    Cat thrown up! great! cleaned all that up, put cat outside for a bit.

    Hope you all had a good day.

    Made donation to mcmillian via OH's GNR, as that was who he was running for this year.

    Daily stuff done, loads more to do, but it can wait, as I am going to bed............

    Hugs if you need one x
