Morning.

maralum no wonder you want to sit staring at her all day. Those 1st smiles are precious. I'm loving my little one now cos everything is hilarious, and he spends all day laughing, and it is delicious. I spend all day pretending to sneeze and other such silliness, and i know he is happy.


I'm betting Lil-me may have had a power cut. I've just seen on the news today that there are going to be rolling power cuts throughout our area today to help them get things back to normal, so they've asked other areas to use less leccy, so i think i may leave putting the WM on today. That's the main thing that we use.

Anyway, this was the plan, although i've already decided not to go to playgroup as the road is flooded still, so here goes:

Wednesday 27/6:
[STRIKE] Check weather report to see where floods are
If possible, pack baby bag and go to playgroup[/STRIKE]going to take baby to clinic instead as he hasn't been for a month. Then i might have a clear road by Friday and go to that playgroup
Deal with post
Make baby bottles
Relist stuff to sell on amazon
Make some baby meals
Wash at least 1 load of Charlie’s things
Unpack rest of clean clothes
Wash my hair
Do some ironing (10 items at least)
Check airers/take off dry clothes/fold and put away
Make a dentist appointment
Wrap friends baby pressie
Make stew for dinner
Pay bills and check current account
Make a shopping list for internet order
Make a meal plan for July

Enjoy your day everyone. I can see the sun,so that will hopefully motivate me
Michelle, x

Maralum, your little one is soooooo gorgeous.

It is brilliant having a little one. They are worth all the trouble in the world.

Hope all is well with the flooded ones, especially Pigpen

Dusty - I hope you are feeling better. This weather is not helping anyone.

I have just taken an iron tablet and a glucosamine tablet, I ate a load of raw broad beans last night (I love this time of year, and when it comes to raw peas and broad beans I am less moderate than I am with diet coke )

DS is dressed, happy, and gurgling at the TV.

Everything in place, ready to start flying.

Hev

Morning all, didn't post last night as when got back from the funeral yesterday my internet wouldn't work, yep we've had cuts too so could have been that, but sorted now fingers crossed. Normal service resumed. Have quickly popped a list on the first thread for today before I do the school run.

Maralum give that beautiful little lady a big hug from me, and her special brother too, isn't Freya coming on brilliant, that smile awww thanks for brightening up my day posting those.

Morning all :hello: :rotfl: Now I'll post my personal list

Yesterday I got DD to "earn" some pocket money (only 50p though) so she did all the dusting that she could reach in the livingroom & hall/stairs She's made a good job of it as well...mind you she is a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to some things :rotfl:

I did my weekly ironing session last night while watching the new Gillian McKeith programme (which I won't be watching again...I thought it was a load of rubbish!) and then CSI. Left OH his 3 tops, 2 tops belonging to DD and the tea-towels to do when his film came on straight after CSI. This morning I get woken up by him calling me (we have an intercom system on our phones which can prove very handy when DD is in bed asleep and when she was younger ) and informing me that the iron broke last night so he couldn't do the ironing. :eek: When I came down I plugged the iron in and it worked fine :rolleyes: Guess what I'm doing tonight while Anthea is on .

lil_me

Right school run done, just had a quick read through, sorry to hear about those suffering so much because of the flooding, it's not been quite as bad as we thought here, maybe the water being off for several days last year to work on the mains and drains actually did something.

Sun has finally got out here today, but for how long I don't know so washing machines on now with a load to hang out, I need to do 4 today just to catch up.

No appointments here today but tutorial tonight, assignment far from finished so will not be able to hand it in, closing date is 4th July so must get it done and posted to him, will have to post it by the 2nd really.

Ok so me for the day, aswell as the list, trying for at least level 2, dailies and night time stuff I must also do this lot

Do more work on assignment
Fix dog bed (one of them has pulled a hole in it)
Laundry catch up (aim for 2 loads and hope for more)
Quick and easy tea for before tutorial
Sort through consent forms and dates the kids have stuff on at school
Contact DSs school he'll be going to in September and try to arrange a visit
Shopping, just a few bits hopefully
