Just a quick update, I have been out all morning and apart from dailies I haven't tackled todays list, living room has been decluttered and I will hoover and dust when I get back in this afternoon - DD2 has a party to go to and I am going to catch up on the gossip with friends - everything else will wait until this evening. I am feeling much better today after the early night yesterday I was obviously needing it.

Haven't read all the post yet but will catch up later, but

lil-me birthday wishes for today.

Pollybear, You make me feel a bit better because I keep typing posts then completely lose them too.

We are looking after a dog for a friend and he is usually an outdoor dog so we put him in our lean to at the back of the houise overnight and he has shredded everything he could find, car sponges, bubble wrap, 2 bags of compost, a sack of his own dog food, and then mixed them all up!!

The lean to is a bit of a glory hole where I keep 'useful' things. So todays list is scrapped and serious clearing and sorting is going on here.

Hi to everyone and happy birthday to lil-me!
Today am aiming to clean bathrooms, hoover stairs and sort out the shelf in the kitchen, (the magic shelf to which all sorts of rubbish is magnetically drawn to - but apparently only I can see - which explains why DH and kiddies can't tidy it up!!)
Yesterday managed to conquer the ironing mountain and am up to date with the washing!!!!!!! (Doesn't often happen!!!!!) Amazing how 2 hours of trash telly can while away the time with the iron going full steam! (That and the pimms that DH made me to keep me working!) He does have his uses!
Off to have hair cut (my mum in charge of the little people) - wonder how long it takes DH to notice!!!!!

Hi everyone today so far i have mowed the lawns all 3 of them, done 3 loads of washing and that's it. Still have the bathroom and 2 bedrooms to do and dishes.

My MIL and FIL were away on hoildays for 10 days and are back this evening (can't wait, they only live down the lane and it's been weird not seeing them everyday) and we've been looking after the cattle, dog and cats, will be glad to hand that back to them, thought we had lost 2 cattle this morning but they were hiding near the hedge (i really should wear my glasses) lol.

Not long back from a walk with DD - nearly 8000 steps :eek: We went train/digger spotting in the local technology park where they're expanding :rolleyes: She loves it and took some photos but the batteries went on the camera so we had to stop

Anyways, off to sort out some washing & tea. Laters :wave:
