    well, marriage is now registered. got to go back in 15 days to pick up certificate, will write that on my planner :)

    had cuppa at friends though not really time for it. just feel exhausted and on the edge of tears today! oh well, could be worse i guess. gonna go and strip the bed now and then pack quickly then eat lunch. hopefully time to rin the hoover round before i go out as well.

    pigpen - didn't know your DH was still going on about all that stuff!

    Congrats n getting marriage registered!!

    Well, typical.

    I started on the bathroom, managed to do the bath, tiles and bath toys...then little miss got a bee in her bonnet and has been whingeing ever since. She has finally gone to sleep, but I'm so tired and stressed from trying to calm her that now I just want to sit down and do nothing. Even worse, it's now only two hours until I pick up the big boy, so I'm getting short on time.

    Poo.

    my OH thinks its funny that i tell you lot all kinds of personal things too...

    well, WM is on with bedding & towels in. cleaned the filter - lots of hair (yuk). wm is making a funny noise when heating the water though - kind of squeak. hope the heater's not crusted up (lots of limescale around here). will put it on a 90 degree wash with vinegar and soda crystals later. can't pack as my washing is still not dry enough:mad:

    so, will remake bed, tidy and hoover round and do the other bits on my list.

    will also take my quiet life tablets...meant to keep the stress at bay!!

    quite fancy a neighbours fix in half an hour so could finish my writing bits while i do that!

    Darn good idea. The curtains are now closed, I've put "Scrubs" on and I've found my blankie. In fact, I think we should all go for a nap! :D
  • I'm going to sneak back in very quietly and start very gently doing teeny weeny baby steps.... if that is OK?
    Is it home time yet?

    Still no sign of that flybaby folks?

    Apart from blubbering all morning, feeling sorry for myself, I have managed to:

    fill slowcooker (at least we will eat tonight)
    fill washing machine
    visit GP
    tidied living room but not hoovered it yet

    I need to get out of this house, I am going to post a parcel to my sister, and look at dishwashers, I feel I need one as soon as possible.. pick up kids, get them to do homework, piano practise, feed them, get them to take their individual [STRIKE]cr*p[/STRIKE] personal belongings (that I have collected in a plastic bag fot them) up to their rooms, take said offspring to piano lesson and guides.

    pigpen: Why is he so suspicious of you doing the jiggy with someone else? has he got a guilty consious himself? Like you said: Not on your flylady list, not enough time, always having a child or mother attached. He should pay you more attention instead of accusing you, so you can have more jiggy time together :rotfl: :rotfl:
