    - Webinar "attended" and notes made.
    - washing hung out
    - study now looking pretty amazing. Well, good enough for a stranger to use for an afternoon anyway.
    - study and rest of upstairs vacuumed apart from main bedroom
    - lots of bird feeders refilled
    -paperwork ready for today and tomorrow's assessments

    Lunch next.

    Phew - paid stuff done till Monday. Kids collected. Bread and milk purchased on way home. Tea to make and football training later.

    Back of my neck is really hot from the sun - half an hour I was outside!

    So I suppose I'll make the kiddies tea. I'm having the rest of the soup I made earlier.

    Need to make DS bed. His duvet been out in the sun all day...

    Well i have been sitting in the car for an hour now. DS is doing after school sports which was supposed to finish at 5.15. When I do get home I am going to feed everyone then do as little as possible!

    Ah finally I can see kids starting to appear! Thank goodness.

    Aww, hope you're ok natty I was running behind anyway xxx

    Football season finished now, and they are having a few weeks break before starting up training again. DS said we will take our own ball and cones and he will teach me n DD instead :rotfl:

    I had a bit of sweeping time earlier - dunno why I bothered. Tree has shed alsorts of carp all over the patio. Doesn't look like I touched it at all. Ah well. It's exercise I suppose...

    DS bed made, I sponged him down in the bath after football - can't be getting a sweaty boy into a clean bed :o
    Also sorted kitchen as we just ditched all the dinner stuff in there. So DW is loaded and I put a quick wash on. Will hang those up then I think I'm off to bed.

    Yawn.
