    The ice was from him defrosting the fridge! and the water would have been used for the lawn fertiliser anyway.. and he watered the baskets while filling the buckets.

    Need to get him to clean the shelves now we are defrosted! ;)

    DH has gone to a retirement party. We both can't go anywhere as no one is brave enough to have ds2.

    I'm going to tackle the ironing.


    10pm Ironing finished. Quite enjoyed myself :)

    Morning!

    Still in bed, in my mums spare room. Not for long though as roofer is here right outside bedroom window fitting new porch roof. Lots of clunks and crashes.

    My plan is to stay here till 1 or whenever I get my @sda direct ping to say I can collect my order. We might Skype my brother and talk some more about next years trip!
    And I need to book a bowling lane for tomorrow.

    When I get home the downstairs floors want finishing and kids beds stripping. Weather looks good so the sooner the better to get the bedding washed and out to dry. Due rain tomorrow.

    My night out was nicer than I expected. Even danced a little. Then we came back nearer home to meet my stepdad who was rather tipsy so I beat him at a game of pool, lol. Not sure he could really see straight...

    Have a nice Sunday everyone.
    Bossymoo

    Away with the fairies :beer:

    Morning all

    DW on
    maidens emptied
    mogs fed

    I'm off to Greenbee's along with Froddington and Soapie and very excited I am too.

    Just hope my dreadful sense of direction gets me there!

    Have a lovely time FlyMeet people!


    I'm going to try something different (for me), I'm going to post a listy of stuff that if I did it today, would make my life easier later in the week:


    1 Clean new shoes;
    2 Get the thicker duvet down and bag it up for Friday;
    3 Nails, all 20 of them;
    4 Freeze all the ice blocks;
    5 Flea the dog;
    6 Cook her food;
    7 Dig out an anniversary card for OH and write it so it's not a last minute Ooops job yet again.
    Better is good enough.
