Morning all :hello:
Just running out the door with DS2, have washed up, dried up, made lunches and WMx1 already.

Good morning
I have been lurking, but not postingLots of hugs, posi-vibes, codolences, sticks, spoons, get well soon vibes, etc as needed.
I have been working hard (honest!) This week though, I have the mornings off :j I need to use this time to catch up on studies & any other jobs around the house that need doing.
DH is out all day today at a volunteering job. Good news on the job front - he starts as a post man at the beginning of November :j He has been out of work since January, so even though this is part time and a 6 month contract, it is a step in the right direction. I just need to get DD2 out of bed and into work now! :mad: She WILL be helping me today with the children
I need to make a list.....
So far today I have put some stuff down the downstairs toilet & had some breakfast.
Off to find a list..... back soon!0 -
Good morning all. I'm in again this week. The house was so much nicer to be in last week and I find myself doing little things when I spot them now rather than saving them up for when I have a moment - no more procrastination for me - I was standing on the loo this morning swishing at cobwebs on the bathroom ceiling while the shower warmed up!0

[STRIKE]clean downstairs toilet & basin[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]walk dog[/STRIKE]

I'm in again this week, hopefully with more motivation than last week. I have a lot of things on my mind at the moment which probably isn't helping
DD1 has college today so I've dropped her at the station. DD2 is still in bed, she wasn't feeling well yesterday and has a poor appetite. She had a bit of a shock on Saturday when she was out in town with her friend. Some girl, who was a friend of a friend started threatening her and wanted to beat her up. It seems some boy had told the girl that DD2 wanted to fight her! This is far from what my daughter is like!!
It ended up with the staff from KFC and the betting shop stepping in. DD2 was able to phone her dad who came down to get her but she was understandably upset. Didn't help when her dad started moaning at her when he got to her that his toothbrush was missing :eek: :mad: DD2 and her friend had stayed at his the night before and her friend had picked his toothbrush up by mistake, similar colour apparently.
Well I'm going to finish my coffee and get on -

Couldn't sleep this morning as I have a dental appointment later, and if there is one thing that scares me, it's the dentist. Big blubbering heap scared. Instead of just lying there I got up and did things, so I'm rather chuffed with myself. DW run, washing up finished off, special dogfood being cooked, bins done, dog walked, sandwiches made for later. Just about to jump in the shower and then I'm out and about for several hours, mostly being drilled and then over to the chalet to drop off cushion bags and switch the fridge back on.Better is good enough.0
