I have not done anything of the lists but I have done the basic dallies, my head is feeling far more normal today so I am going to bed very soon to try and get a good nights sleep.
Then crack on with the lists in the morning but I did buy myself a new mop handle after the dog ate my other one so no more risk of impaling my self while wringing out the mop.
I hope we are all well I haven't read back too much but I hope everyone is okay.0 -
List update shows an awful lot left to do this weekend. I'll be up early to take DS3 to squash and DS2 wants to go and buy himself a new tennis racket so once I'm back no excuse not to crack on! Going to collect the curtains I ordered to see if I like them and hopefully get a lightshade for DS3 (assistant said 15% off at homebase this weekend so need to check if this is the case.
3 or 4 loads of washing to do this weekend too.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Well DD is in bed sulking slightly as she has to be in school tomorrow for 9am, told her its her own fault for joining the choir :rotfl::rotfl: So while she is out I'll drag henry around the house and dust while the WM is on with non-uniform loads and I need to do a Mr A shop for delivery Sunday (they always turn up early when I book a sunday delivery
