Washing finally away but have run out of hangers, I swear the boys eat them.
Boys tiding their bedroom and DD away for a bath. OH can bath DS3 when she's finished while I sort her hair.“Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish it.”0 -
Flying limited, staggering around like a zombie today.
I managed to put away a couple of small tubs of stuff in my room into their new homes once the EX came for the young Skints. Took 3 big black bin liners to dump along with half a bathroom full of empty shampoo bottles etc and a big bin of cardboard.
Been invited to go to Cinema with very nice NDN's tonight for a film I really really want to see, so hoping I can keep the BD under control for long enough that I don't make a complete T*t of myself and get an end of aisle seat just in case.
Right time to spend some time with the young Skints before DD1 takes over for the evening.
Tomorrow I have builder here again and I have someone installing wood burning stove in living room......and I can hear chirping in my chimney, so currently blowing a fan up the chimney to discourage said birdies from building another nest in my chimney before morning! Then I have horsepiddle in the late afternoon
So I will be back on new Fred at some point tomorrow or the small hours of Tuesday :wave: hugs sticks and spoons to allThe cold never bothered me anyway0 -

Project all ready to get in the post.. and I am really struggling to find another project to do while at OH's mums all week.. I might take 2 or 3 things tbh.. a baby thing for DD1 and a big thing, probably the ripple blanket I have in mind! and maybe DD1's top to finish... I've done 2/3rds of the front! It is a complex pattern and requires full concentration which is the problem I have.. I knit with my brain turned off.
WM on
dry stuff all folded
last bits of clothing stuffed in bags, I need to sort Pixie a few more sleepsuits, she barely as any.
Tesco delivery in the morning.. a teeny tiny miniscule order so we don't have to go tomorrow on the way and mainly bits for taking with us, sandwiches for on the way and a huge bag of dog food for DD1's mutt..
I think a sleepsuit shop is in order.. and I need to order Moomin and Tiddles winter coats.
Right.. box of shoes to sort, pack up a laptop and get the foody bits ready to just throw it all in the car. Just nagging OH actually, we should get the table and bags and toys in the car tonight to save time tomorrow.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

I have made DH some lunch to take to work, and the dryer seems to be working, so the towels I washed over night will hopefully dry! I have a load of washing I did last night which I would like to hang outside, but the weather looks a bit iffy.
I need to go to the supermarket once I've had a shower, and woken up DS - I don't want to take DD with me cos it will take twice as long, but I would rather DS was awake when I leave her here. Being able to leave the kids and go out is great - we even had an evening out without them last week!
I hope those of you going on holiday have a great time!May spend - £291.40/£320.00

Natty hope you are ok. Flyers I'm sure natty will do a thread but if not I'll do one at lunchtime.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
