  • Morning all. Just a quick post while DH at the diy store. Started the boys room Monday as it would be a quick job!!... It took 2 whole days!! It now doesn't look like it belongs in my house, lol. Just DS2 wardrobe to sort and some bits that got put onto the landing to rehome. So not much of the list managed.


    Up at half 5 after an unsettled night as dd2 had a temp. DD3 was wide awake at 5.30 followed by dd2 at 6 who had been sick everywhere so all 3 girls beds stripped and in washer and everyone showered. Airer emptied and reloaded and a mountain of underware sorted (we actually have socks!). Gammon in slow cooker for tea, smells lovely. Accounts sorted. All kid fed and watered.


    Need to do..
    bathroom list
    landing/stairs/hall
    empty and reload DW
    more washing
    Anything else from list I can get done


    Then might attempt the girls room (that could take a month to sort!).

    Afternoon all and great flying by some of you - well done.

    Busy day here. DS3 did not sleep well, probably anxiety at going back to school again (for no known reason) so I've had a poor night. Drove the boys to school and straight on to Mr L, home by 9:45 with all the shopping. That is all way, 2 hours paid stuff in my neighbours garden which was very hard work. I now have a bruise the size of a fist just above my knee from catching it and I whacked my already bad elbow on the gate which trying to start our 20 year old lawn mower - it maybe time to get another one as I just don't have the strength for it anymore.

    Need to be at a meeting at 2pm so cuppa now and a bit of paperwork prep.

    See you all later and keeeeeeeeeep flying.

    Afternoon flyladies :wave:

    Just back from the paid stuff, DS1&2 stayed with my SIL and her boys while I was out and DS2 has come home in a STINKING mood. Early bed for him tonight.

    I need to colour my hair so I will tackle today's list after that, hopefully there won't be too much sloppage which needs attacked with the bleach :o

    DH has sent me a very exciting surprise email, apparently I have sponsored Rob Austin in this year's British Touring Car Championship :D and I get to have a (small) picture of me on the roof of his car. I am not a sport fan at all but I LOVE the BTCC and Rob is my favourite driver :heart: Bit of a fan girl moment going on here but I'm dead chuffed :D Now to choose a pic!
