    Well done Jazee should have thought of bowls, my Dad plays.

    Just having a five minute tea break then might join you Frodders.

    Well done GI. Right going to move myself or this is going to turn into an hour of wasted time. Will get the washing and ironing sorted then I can sit down after tea.

    I thought you all might like to see a pic of OldDog on her walk today with DD - doing really well on her meds. (As I haven't got any flying to report).

    Sorry the pic is so big

    A busy day until 2pm.
    Ran a 3k with ds1 and then did a 10k with my my friend so lots of calories dcluttered! Lol. Then popped in to get some bits for the week from the supermarket. Got home and made lunch.

    Then the boys had a loooong bath which they loved while we got showered. Then we all got into our pjs! (At 2.30!)

    The boys have been playing beautifully,I made a casserole and tidied the kitchen. Did two loads of washing and had a bit of a tidy up while OH did.... Well let's not go there! Let's just say, same as normal!

    Just having tens minutes before putting kiddies to bed and then cracking on with my school work! I would like to be done by 9 tonight so I can have a quick whiz round before bed. But we will see!

    She looks quite happy trotting along Jazee.. and the pic isn't huge.. its about 10cm square on my taplop.


    I have..


    sorted my bedside unit.. it is the Ikea malm one with 2 drawers.. it is about half full now and I filled.. half a binbag with the remainder!!! I don't even know how it all fit in.
    Wash basket filled
    clothes rehomed to correct rooms if not away.
    I put away a few bits of mine and put 4 things in another CS bag.
    I cleared some of the gubbins off the top of my big chest of drawers and I have a basket to go to my sisters

    AND... I have 20 items listed on ebeast.. I'll do a few more shortly.. I'm doing listings on laptop as doing it on my phone keeps making some buy it now which resulted in an embarrassing situation earlier where I have to refund an amount and apologise to the buyer.. I do hope they bid again.. I did say it was Ebay at fault not me or them.


    OH minced the grass and half the bush .. battery on the hedge mincer died so it on charge.

    Bath and bed for mini-monsters.

    Aw Jazee what a beautiful photo. Everyone seems to have been very busy. I am really tired tonight, still recovering from this bug I think. Back to work tomorrow so I will get an early night.

    I am nearly finished with my second job, just an afternoon a month that I am keeping on so I will soon have more time for flying/decluttering. Just wish I could get OH on board, he has done absolutely b***ger all this weekend - even though we are cultivating a beautiful dandelion display in the front garden and we have a kitchen waiting to be tiled. Sigh.

    Off to persuade DS2 to get in the bath and put the DW on I think.

    Evening all

    Day at home today. Managed to get the kitchen floor mopped and s good clean up in there, so downstairs is in good shape. Although I might S&S the downstairs loo before I go to bed. Just waiting for shopping delivery.

    Ooh - it just arrived, back in a mo!

    Shopping all put away and packup made for tomorrow.

    So, I was saying we were in good shape downstairs, and the kiddies tidied their rooms before bath time :A

    So it's really just the bathrooms that could do with a wipe - but I fear it might not happen tonight. I want to get showered and clothes ready for morning.

    Oh, I did the ironing :)
