I get so much done when hubby is out for the night! Kids were in bed by 7 and then I made dinner for myself and tackled these jobs. Just doing the ironing now!

bossymoo

Oh so many things to remember!

pigpen I hate ceilings too glad he cam to the rescue!

mrs mp DS is fine, he can't remember what he said but doesn't seem phased by it, and said one boy knew where his dad was, only he pronounced it "heathen" anyway, special snowflake (as I've been corrected, it is not a star, mummy) pic is now back where it belongs and DS is not upset, and it only took him 10 months to tell his classmates...

lamewolf welcome back, don't apologise about the challenge, mine has gone rather t!ts up, lol. We are just glad you've had a nice trip! And come home to some doggies, hurrah!

elsipac if you are running out of cleaning supplies, is that maybe because you are *whispers* cleaning :eek:

Welcome student mum nice to "meet" you!

Well after work, I collected small people, took to swimming lessons, collected DD prescription and meds on way home, made dinner, had cuddles and pjs, put said small people to bed, tidied dinner things away, emptied bin, made a cuppa, did another HH paid stuff, had a quick tidy round, got uniforms out, had a shower and here I am.

I haven't made my packup for tomorrow and I'm bushed. I will allow myself a canteen salad bar treat I think - I'm usually very good so an occasional spend is allowed. I will grab a bit of muesli and a yoghurt to take for brekki though!

Somehow tomorrow I need to squeeze in a grocery shop. Almost out of milk, DD will need packup for Wednesday and the fridge is rather bare! So I'll write a list and do a bit of speed shopping on the way to collect from school club. I have 3 of those Mr M bonus tickets too, so £10 off a £40 spend and 10p off per litre of fuel :T

Does everyone else feel like they could use an extra day or two in the week, just to keep up?

elsiepac

Ha bossymoo :rotfl: yep been cleaning... it was more that I had a huge stock so haven't bought any for like a year, so bit of a shock to realise the things I have left are not too useful for everyday... i.e. about 3 different window cleaners!

Evening

New flyladies welcome :wave:

I've spent the afternoon doing accounts and juggling washing. It took me 2 hours to do the pre-christmas invoice alone after I found a £200 discrepancy! All because I'd not entered 2 incomes & got 2 outgoings tallied up wrong. I'm now up to February but I've stopped for the night thanks to a splitting headache

Personal:
Meal plan - need to sort out some new 'marinades' for chicken for this week to stop us getting bored of it.
Laundry : [STRIKE]Sofa cover,[/STRIKE] throws, [STRIKE]cleaning cloths[/STRIKE] dark, light
DIY list
Abs: MTWTFSS

Work
[STRIKE]Additional order[/STRIKE]
Email Av0n for another wrong recharge :mad: Now waiting for them to get back to me.
Make check list. - in progress
Accounts -in progress, double checking up to February
Tax return (as it follows on from work accounts)
Tax Credits (I know not strictly work, but it follows on from the tax return )
NI payment (Follows on from accounts etc so I remember!)

Musty Monday ~ Kitchen <<will have to wait until I've washed the cleaning cloths as I have none left :rotfl:
15 minutes...
Sweep and mop the floor
Got an hour...
Dust checking for cobwebs on way round… lightshades need doing!
Clean cupboard door fronts and fronts of appliances
Clean oven if you didn't do it last week
Clean the WM [STRIKE]filters and [/STRIKE] drawer Filter done after the machine started making a funny noise. No more funny noise but nothing in the filter?!?!
Extras

• Thoroughly clean a cupboard or the drawers!
• [STRIKE]Put WM on a 'clean' cycle.. make sure those doorseals and filters are clear[/STRIKE]
• 30 minutes ironing!!!
• Wipe the inside of the unit doors
• Empty the pan cupboard!! Sort those oven trays, tighten handles on pans.

My 'nest' (aka the area around where I am working) is tidied up, stuff is out for the morning, sofa cover is on the maiden, and DD has prepared her cookery stuff for tomorrow (I've cleaned up after she burst the bag of oats all over the kitchen & dining table:eek:) so I am off to bed. Night all :wave:

Froddy you should be resting if you have tonshellitis, not catchingup on flying

Dusty, Thank you! I realised that when I tried (and failed) to get up this morning! And again when I slept for 2 hours this afternoon! Need to set alarms to remind me to take the meds (4 times a day!). In fact, need to take some now ............

hi I have recently signed up to mse after months of lurking so I can finally post.

Warm welcome to the house of the flyperson :hello:


Home from work, bags sorted, LOs potted and fridged for Wednesday lunch I hope. DH had cleared up and washed his dinner things :kisses3: (leaving them to drip-dry of course) so I've just put away


I've sorted all my paperwork for tomorrow and everything left ready to take in the morning so I don't forget anything


Off to zzz shortly - hope you all have a terrific Tuesday
