nicki you'll have to let me know what you thought of the call girl thing. i loved it was v funny. oh watched with his tongue hanging out:eek:

I loved it too :rotfl: OH was doing a "no wonder her dad wasn't happy! " thing most of the way through :rotfl: Then he said "Oh, I thought it was on for an hour, not just 30 mins" :rolleyes::rotfl: Although I have to admit that it wasn't exactly comfortable viewing considering me and OH aren't together Might make the effort to watch it upstairs on the little portable on Thursday instead.

Right, necessary uniform ironed, DD's lunch made and since OH is leaning back in his chair to see the TV I'm guessing thats my hint that it's bedtime and to get off the computer - although he would probably deny that as it's not in his character to chase me to bed (at least not now ;) ):D

Just for reference sake at 10.30pm OH said "I'll do the washing up either before bed or in the morning before work." Closely followed by "I'll make my own lunch in the morning". Shall we see which I end up doing instead? :rotfl:

See you all tomorrow. :wave:

grrr i wanted to watch the callgirl thing. what channel was it on - it might be on my on demand service!

christmas cards - i love you all to bits but i'm afraid i'm not able to send cards as i already send lots and have wedding invites this year as well!

rach

before i go to bed. tomorrow i plan to:

Manic Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room
Level One
Clean floors
Level Two
Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces
Sort fridge bringing what needs using soon to the front, clean out any spills or grots in there!
Level Three
Dust any extra furniture in dining area, checking for cobwebs on way round
Wipe and replace all those small appliances.. kettle, toaster etc
Descale kettle and iron
Clean cupboard door fronts and fronts of appliances .. don't forget those kick boards..
Check those washing machine filters and drawers for ickiness!! Tumble dryer and dishwasher filters need to be done too!!
Extra Mission
Choose one or more of:

• Wipe down any tiles and shine those taps.. a toothbrush is great for cleaning away the gunk!

phone aunty
phone re dress fitting
look at wedding vows / service
phone debenhams re gift list
tidy invite boxes up
phone school to check on tueday's assemblies
give OH suit info (today he decided he's not sure he wants to wear one...think he was just having a blip!)
fix toiletry thing back on bathroom wall (fell off!!!)

think deep clean challenge is one thing too much for me, and i'll have to do it again when i move anyway...

is it ok to descale a stainless steel kettle with vinegar?

Hi to penguin83 liloandstitch BumpyBecky, turra21 and punky.

tinselfairy

I'm so sorry to read the news about your dad Poohbear, hugs in abundance to you and your family right now. Take care.

tinselfairy

For some reason the darn thanks button won't work. Just caught up and couldn't thank anyone! Will try later.pigpen- although I wasn't keen on the idea of a weekend list initially I liked having it and using it as a prompt, obviously I'll go with the majority vote but I'm happy for it to stay.Also the Christmas card thing sounds good. Haven't written my list for today out as yet.Will edit it in when I've decided what I need to do.

pigpen

Of course the christmas card thing would be an opt IN rather than an opt out.. basically it would run like.. if you want others to send you a card email me your postal and/or email address.. that way e-cards are possible or real cards.. Your 'real' name wouldn't even be vital.. we can stick with user names if that makes you more comfortable.

Liloandstitch.. my uncle became a daddy for the first time yesterday morning after 15 attempts at IVF they had a baby conceived naturally.. there is always a chance!! I also know someone who had her first baby last year after 8 years if trying and IVF and also conceived naturally.. and for what it's worth.. I was told I'd never have children!!! I just need to be more productive with the flying!! lol Good luck my sweet and welcome!!!
