( he stayed home to play splatoon)

An hour of the paid stuff
Hoover bathroom floors
Wonderful Wednesday!! ~ BEEEAAAUUUUTILICIOUS master bedroom

Dust radiators and skirtings and any other dusty bits you can see
Wipe down any units.. mug rings off bedside units, make up dust of the dresser top etc

Extras, if you are a glutton for slaving away over a hot microfibre cloth.!!

They are just real life and a lot of us have nothing else going on worth talking about.. my day has been a trip to Tesco a trip to solicitor 2 school runs and laundry.. and ranting at the MBNA person dealing with my complaint... I called the doctors and the council and that is my entire day..

RE: Bedroom Wednesday:- Being a well qualified slob..one thing I do find handy re bedding is to fold it all up (i.e. bottom sheet, quilt cover, 3 pillowcases, all packed into the 4th pillowcase. Ergo...every complete bed set is packed into one pillowcase....makes me feel really righteous when i go to change the beds and it's ll there in one neat place.0

Back from the ballet with DD. We were a little early so went a walk along the street. There is a really lovely florist so I treated myself to a standard fuchsia. Left DD at ballet and went to asda. Picked up most of this weeks shop. Dropped off on the way home to pick up a bingo machine and books for charity night on Friday.
Just fed the minions, rabbit and dog. Now I'm off to knit till I can't hold my eyes open!
Sleep well all xI'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged0 -
Hi all
What a day, yeah I am with you Pigpen on the UN Peacekeeper front. Managed to persuade my very anxious 16 yo that he was going to the dentist for a filling.
Shattered now. Early night. Oh and I relented and picked the clothes up of DSs bedroom floor ... I know, I know, its not teaching him anything is it? But I wanted to get the washing machine on.0 -
Hey,
Feeling a little better
Just managed 2.5hours of good revision. Fed babies, put them to bed, flung about 60 things, now outside awaiting pick up, sorted clean washinf into piles, put around 30 bits of washing away, so still on target for the week. So not a completely wasted day. Going to have a drink with OH now, as he's away from tomorrow? Then I'll be off to bed, need to take Bambinos to nursery then to city for exam! Sounds like you've all been flinging and cleaning, well done!0 -
Evening all,
Everyone seems mega busy. Not had a bad day, lots of washing out on line and dried, but only problem is not ironed for ages, and three more loads added to that, so mega ironing mountain created. Argh.
Also done the kitchen list from Tuesday, levels 1,2,3. Plus dog walk, children to swimming lesson, removed tick from dog (first time ever, yuck!)
missy don't worry, I find it helps to get all your frustrations in print! If it's any consolation, my two dd's are suffering from back to school tiredness and can't seems to be within six feet of each other without arguing.
Tomorrow must do at least some ironing, plus sweep all the leaves up that came off the trees on Monday, plus paid stuff.
Night all x0
