Morning all,

I hope everyone had a restful night and that the weather is better in the UK. More of the same in this part of the world. Not sure what the plan for today is, I might catch up with some friends for lunch. If not, the DC want to go ice-skating.

My list for today

HHI

[STRIKE]Hang washing out x 2[/STRIKE]
Check fridge and cupboards & make shopping list
[STRIKE]Buy milk[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Mop throughout[/STRIKE]

15 min tidy in our room
Put away wrapping paper
Buy tags (had a quick look yesterday but couldn't see any on sale)

Finish my book...

A busy day ahead then as I have plenty of paid stuff to do too. I need a new dressing gown as mine is looking quite tatty. Might see if I can squeeze a little shopping trip in a some point over the next few days

**Vanilla**

Morning all, been up hours here with a sore throat (that's what I get for going to the next sale and standing in the cold).


Tablets took and spent some time catching up on the soaps. Going to get the wm kick started, which will be on all day.


Right best get started.

Morning all!

Pigpen, you just nudged me into emptying my camera too

Better sleep here (phew) although DD was in with me. Had brekki now going to do an online shop. Kids have built a den. I have a bit of laundry, and although I'm not in the ironing challenge I only have 2 tshirts of DDs so far to do. Did uniforms last weekend (get me!) so that's all hung in wardrobes.

We're looking lots better here, floors swept and most stuff rehomed. Am turning a mental eye to decorating now :eek: DD needs to move into the spare room. Nursery is a bit small for the sort of bed she wants (midsleeper) so we'll swap. The good news is that the spare room carpet is in good condition, and no paper up so just a bit of painting and a new blind required. We just need to negotiate on colour. She wants pink

Anyway, few pics from me:

DS falling off the chair in excitement about his bike:


DD being Rapunzel:


DS and his Tiger hat, has a bit of a thing for white tigers:


The "Big" style piano pad sent by DHs aunt:


DD doing manicures, she charges £40 :rotfl:

Pigpen and Bossy Moo, I loved your pics of little people revelling in their new treasures. I can remember that bliss.

Also, Piggers, your Secret Santa sounds very much like mine. I think I may have guessed who has been very generous and thoughtful, and I am very grateful. Tea towel sitting on the dresser ready to be used (very nescessary, my mother's are looking old, tatty, holey and grey despite the Milton soak), chocs secretly stashed for when OH is away and luscious smellies lined up for pampering session - again, when OH is away.

Valli, if it's faceperson likes you're collecting for your niece, I'll do so if you want. Mrs Dog came from around that area.

OH is playing with his 'lectric toothbrush. It's got a computer disc, and the paper booklet of instructions are five pages long! Typical bloke, if you can get him to even open them, they have to be read out loud, step by step. There's a lot of muttering going on.
