Ahem Miss Pigpen I am working right now if you must know I am sat here entering stuff onto DO$H obviously you are not picking up my webcam, probably coz it's all steamed up (not sure if the steam is my frenzied DO$Hing or your stripping!!!!)

OK so I am refreshing here as well, what a fun life I lead!!

Evening all,

I was going to post this morning and say "whoppee - the first seeds I've sown for my university research have germinated" but then I logged on and heard about Jill's imminent news - and that is much more exciting!

I'm exhausted, went running straight after work and made the fatal mistake of going out with intermediates rather than beginners. If my calves are aching now what are they going to be like in the morning?!

Lil_me: I'm sorry you are having so many ups and downs trying to find a new house. I really hope something comes along before too long.

So how's my list for today:
Wednesday, Master Bedroom & Landing
Level 1
[strike]Check fire alarms are working[/strike]
[strike]Remove bed linen and replace with fresh linen
[/strike]Level 2
[strike]Dust surfaces & make sure no cobwebs.. make sure to do the bed base.. mine was gross last week!
[/strike]
Vacuum mattress before replacing with fresh linen
15 minutes floordrobe clearance
Level 3
[strike]Vacuum floors in bedroom and on landing[/strike]
Sort one area of clothes or linen storage making sure only what should be in there is, anything that's had it's day or doesn't belong there is removed
Defluff and demuck woodwork... skirtings, window frames, door frames dados, picture rails etc


About a C+ I reckon, but at least I did both upstairs bed-rooms, so that's one less thing to do before parents arrive on Friday.


Right time for a hot bath to do something about these aching legs.


Take care all (especially Jill)

Hi All

Just got in from work and thought I'd pop in to see what's happening on the baby front and still no news!

I've done no flying today as I picked my friend up this morning with her twins to go and look for cardigans for school. She wanted 2 Royal blue ones and I wanted a couple of red ones. I picked her up at 09.15 and dropped her back off at 02.50 just in time to fetch DD from school. We went 3 different towns and found some (the last 2 in each colour and each size) at the last shop we went in.

I then came home, cooked tea, put washing on the line and dropped kids off at M & D's on my way to work as Dh wasn't back.

I am determined to get on top of things tomorrow morning but I shall still be waiting for news from Jill!

Hugs to everyone who wants them.

Catch you all tomorrow

That doesn't count.. it's not making your house SHINE! :cool:

Ok.. so mine doesn't shine.. but it has a kind of 'well worn sheen'.. or that could be inground jelly tots and blutac!!! :rotfl:

Kitchen is sorted for the morning.. hubby can put a loaf in when he gets out of the shower. I've just bought a field worth of flour and no juice or porridge oats.. so I need to do another SMALL tesco order.. never mind.. more points and more codes used!

My mother came earlier and brought me another bag of stuff of my sisters for me to ebay.. cos I don't have anything like enough to do you know!!! :rolleyes:

I need a cuppa.. and find uniforms.. and sort pack ups.. they loved staying packed lunch today.. but hated the weetabix cake.. not to worry DS1 and hubby will devour the lots.. pigs!! I'll do one with chocolate chunks (frozen value chocolate pounded with a hammer!!!).. they'll eat that! I have some mini pepperamis though.. bet they eat those!!

Front room needs finding too.. *YAAAWWWWWN* ..

THEN can I go to bed???

Thought I'd log on first thing to see if there was any news - mind you I suppose everyone's still in bed! DS got up at 5.30 as per usual - I'm hoping it will be a bit later when he starts school.

I have a question - how am I supposed to clean my keyboard when I've got to keep my computer turned on to wait for news? Do I get excused from that?

Morning Julie,

This is very unusual for me to be online at this time in the morning, but thought I'd log on before I leave for work too. I expect I won't get on here again til late tonight, as going straight to my parents for dinner, so will probably miss any news, unless I can sneak on at work.

Feeling really bad as I haven't done any flying for a while since I've worked full time, although I wiped down the kitchen last night and put the bed linen in the wm and td. It's still there, but I don't have time to fold and put it away.

Anyway, I'd best get a move on, or I'll be late to pick up my sister again (yesterday she told me I wasn't allowed to have breakfast as there wasn't time so I'm determined to get there early enough today).
