Morning all. Not a great start to the day here, DH can't find the right tools for a DIY job so words have been had and he's now gone to homeb@se to waste more money.

I just want to get the house straight today.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning all,

I'm on it this morning. OH is seeing three clients today, so he will be out most of the day, so I'm going to use today to be dynamic!

Here is my overly ambitious list, in order of doing:

Strip our bed

Kitchen worktops
Cancel car insurance
Clean bog, sink, bath

Clear bedroom floors
Hoover bedrooms
Tidy hall
Hoover kitchen and hall
Mop kitchen and hall

Morning all
Wet and miserable here, that wasn't forecast!
Hugs good wishes posi vibes sticks and spoons to all who need them.
Shopping done and put away, have mils to take round later and need to nip over to see dd1 with her Easter pres as I forgot to give it her when we did the dress day.
Ds2 has opened his cards and declared that he doesn't really feel any older. Lol he's 16 not 60! Dd3 will be round later with his cake so I'll do pizzas for tea as I'm not sure how many I'm feeding.
Got to nip in the attic later as dd2 wants to borrow the Christmas charger plates as serving dishes for DGS 1st birthday next weekend - can't believe how quick that's come round.
Got a bit of non ironing to put away then some in the wm to put on the drying rack as it won't get dry outside today.

Have a good weekend all.

Morning all.

Bossy - Enjoy your holiday
Narco - Enjoy your holiday as well

Today I'm concentrating on getting the laundry done and the ironing pile cleared while DD is out with ex. She's just left so while I wait for the 2nd wash load to finish I'm going to wrap her birthday gifts. Her dad has just told her she can't get her birthday gift from him until his card arrives as its in there. She's not impressed as she thought she was getting it today :rotfl::rotfl:

When DD gets back we're going out to deliver books to customers, go get my nephews birthday gift, then we'll have to run down to Mr A for some groceries as we're almost out of milk and bread plus I need to buy wholemeal bread flour before I can bake any more homemade stuff. Then we need to clean the house, or at least get anything I haven't managed to get done done. Its going to be a busy day!!!

Jazee

Me again. House now almost straight but DH still couldn't do the DIY job so I'll have to arrange a man who can on Monday. Wasting a bit of time on here, will then make something to eat and drop DH off at work.

Then I can get on with a few pottering about jobs. Still pouring with rain yet so no dog walk to clear the cobwebs either.

I'm back at the paid stuff on Monday and I don't feel refreshed at all. Maybe tomorrow will be ok, my last days of hols, DH's first day.

Hope all those on holiday are enjoying themselves.I've decluttered cash at Garden centre and done HH ironing.Bought a lovely gilet in chas shop and am now going to get back to reading a good book.

msgnomey

Well due to cf we have not gone to Oh's mothers.. I have the police on speed-dial after he threatened to break my back and legs and to smash my skull in with a hammer.. Just what I need!!!

Noone will actually DO anything.. so I am stuck having to put myself in danger ever time I see it.. I've have numberous panic attacks the last couple of days which I've not had for years and I also told OH to go to his mothers without me and not bother coming back!

I am NOT in a happy place!
