Morning
No flying done yesterday as I was in school all day then at work in the evening.
Today DD is off school as she's been up half the night coughing and with a temperature so I don't know how much I'll get done. I'm going to continue with the downstairs though as there's no way DD will let me get rid of anything while she's here!
She now wants me to go and make wind chimes with her so that won't help my cleaning - it'll just make mess!
I have already done 2 loads of washing though and about an hour's ironing so I have got something done.
Hugs to everyone
Nicki - when do we get to know what you're up to?

Nicki,yes please to a coffee and.. I'm intrigued too!
AnW'smum and SexymouseNot sure I'm ready to embrace his untidyness yet, I had a few 'moments' on Monday and it was only the thought of today that kept me sane. Slowly, slowly. Thanks though, I'm pleased for me too!
I'm halfway through the kitchen list, cleaning the insides of the cupboards as I work my way round and getting rid of stuff I don't use. One washload hung out but it's so damp out. The weather is just hanging there.
Pigpen, almond cake..yum yum. I've copied that down and tripping into almond fantasyland wonder if it would work with a long roll of marzipan through the middle Stollen style?
Kitchening 'til 11,the pantry and the glory hole need serious attention too then I'll tackle the livingroom while I'm still in my scruffs.One debt v 100 days Part 14 £400/£400

Thanks AnW'sMum. Also forgot to thank you pigpen for putting up the new lists again, and for keeping us on our toes by changing the lists around. It has actually worked in my favour as I'll be able to catch up tonight without too much pressure.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170

morning folks.
had a nice lie in until about 9ish. Still feel shattered though. Roll on another few weeks as i can not keep getting 11 hours sleep a night.
Again, won't be doing too much today. I think i may wrap DS's birthday pressies, and wash his bedding. Oh, and sort through the mountain of post there is bound to be at some stage today.
I think i may need to get signed off work for a bit too. I was so annoyed still at bedtime it did take me a while to fall asleep. Hopefully i get some sort of reply today as i am a bit more chilled but still quite cheesed off by it
Plan is to now go and snooze on the sofa for a bit, and then perhaps have a bath, and then do the other stuff this afternoon.
Anyway, lovely to see some returners like solway. Fly like the wind today, and you will feel so much better.
Michelle, x0 -
Well I've emptied the drawers and some bits of wardrobe, its all on my bed at the moment!!
I just came down for a cloth to wipe out the drawers, but got tempted by the pc...ok, going to get the cloth and find homes for all the stuff that I no longer want to go in the drawers. Will get kinders to help me get stuff in the loft when the get home. Its looking like there will be quite a bit more than first anticipated.....0 -
Morning all! Thanks for the replies about OHs and flying. I don't suppose it would come as too much of a shock to him as he already thinks I spend all my time on this site. I'm sure he thinks I am having a "cyber-affair" with Martin!
