Morning All
Really lovely to see so many people posting.
So far today I have fed the kiddies and sent two frogg-ish emails. Need to get dressed quickly, and DS and I are visiting a relative relating to the whole sorry mess I posted about last week.
Then going to the big blue-and-yellow store for lunchThe laundry has dried on the heated airer overnight (persisting down here). DH out for a work meal tonight so will defrost myself some chilli from the freezer.
Best get on, will report back later xxMFW

Good morning, and hi back to hex2!
I just have one bathroom, and I've done everything on the list. It only took half an hour!
I'm out to play Scrabble this morning as my reward. :j:j

Morning!
Supposed to be out for a walk and lunch with MIL today (still wondering why, if I'm due a telling off) and it's persisting it down...
Was up early for grocery delivery so kitchen is full of food. Need to sort my veg drawer.
Will finish lunches and feed dd then sort the rest of the shopping. Freezer stuff and dairy is away.
Think my MAD time needs to be recycling and packaging - I've got lots of cardboard around and I'm not sure it will fit in the green bin...
Catch you laterBossymoo

Morning all!
Just scoffing crumpets for brekkie then off to preschool with Tiny. Looking forward to another morning of painting, although it took two hours yesterday to do the cutting in on one side of the kitchen ceiling :eek:. Clay paint + lime plaster = slow progress. I thoroughly enjoyed it though...how sad am I?
I blitzed the kitchen yesdterrday, but guess what?!? Yup, looks like I didn't bother :mad:
Honestly, DH is sooo messy.
Loving all the news - keep it coming0 -

Morning all, planning to do the bedrooms today but waiting for DH to get up, he had a bad night.
So I've just done the normal tidying round, washing up etc. Not enough washing for a load today but it's been raining anyway. I'll make up for it tomorrow I'm sure.
DD coming round some time this morning with DGD4 so I can get a cuddle in there. I've already had a spaniel cuddle this morning when I walked past the vets as they were opening and the nurse had her two with her0 -
Early lunch out enjoyed, difficult conversation had with relative, now time to attack the lists. Also need to decide on DH MAD for when he gets home from workMFW

Well done ATB. Hopefully things will resolve themselves for you now. X
Pollybear, a spaniel cuddle must be the BEST start to any day!
I went for a very short run this morning but managed to time it exactly from when it started to rain until it stopped! Got soaked but not really complaining as unlike a lot of people we have had no rain here since the end of May. Sun just coming out again now. But I am going to leave the WM x2 hanging indoors just to be sure.
Shower and loos cleaned, bathroom and kitchen floors swept and mopped. And even the kitchen windows have been cleaned - inside only, don't get excited! Just having something to eat then I'm going to tackle my MAD - paperwork again. I'm trying not to take my eye off the ball as I can see lots of candidates queuing up to be future MADs.0
