    We can now tape from freeview onto video. Only took 2 hours! After he finally listened to something I was saying and tried it, it worked.....

    Raining a little here now so I won't be able to cut the front grass. Never mind, it's not too bad.

    Well done LJD1's DD :)

    I'm so jealous of all of you who've been in the garden, it's done nothing but rain all day today


    Don't be jealous, I've got blisters from secateurs, achey arms from blunt hedge trimmers, puncture wounds from some spikey shrub and was eaten alive by all sorts of flying things! And it wasn't sunny just not wet. Your garden looked fab anyhow from those pics or maybe you meant just lounging!

    I'm just busy planning my week and realising I'm away Tuesday and most of Wednesday so I'm going to make a start in the kitchen now ahead of the list.
    I'll check back at 8 when I really will have earned my keep for the day.

    Have a good evening, see you on the new thread.

    I've nearly hit Monday's Level One.

    But when I tried to empty the huge container I had been soaking my oven trays in, I missed...

    I don't really to draw a picture do I?

    DS is a little off colour and unenthusiastic about his baby rice. Ten days ago he was cuddled by someone who was sent home from school the next day with chickenpox. I am watching him closely.

    Sigh.

    On the other hand, due to the problem with the huge container for the oven trays, the kitchen floor is cleaner than it has been for weeks, I have also managed some ironing and had some really good cuddles with DS.

    The washing is a huge mound at the moment, and I really need to get cracking, but the rain here has been horrendous.

    Is there anywhere that hasn't been affected by the awful weather?

    DH has made chino chila for tea, so I am really looking forward to that, and must dash.

    Start again tomorrow :j

    LJD1 well done to both of you. Also with selling have you tried the free ads papers www.adtrader.co.uk and www.ad-mag.com you can do them online.

    Katherine well done enjoy your meal out, never been to a tapas bar myself. Shirley I totally understand what you mean, when we are decorating all other housework goes out of the window. Solwaykid, it's been raining here on and off all day but definately not jealous of the injuries, hope they heal soon.

    Mother been and gone, probably won't see her for a while again, actually she was dropping hints about her birthday so might see if I can get over to see her then but she lives about 40 mile away now.

    Off to sort the new thread, not doing bad myself, got the kitchen to clear up and washing up to do (as usual it's a tip as I am the messiest cook) then the laundry mountain to put away when I put the boys to bed. Oh must take dogs out before I put the boys to bed aswell.

    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
