evening all
got to go to city nearer us(bwt 90 mins each way) to stock up on new school shoes etc.dd1 has really odd feet and local clarkes never have anything to fit so not going to bother with that one and head straight to norwich.got 2 if not 3 to get new shoes for.then off to m&s for bras for same dd(oh to be a 31/34" again) then off to asda for some essetionals.thats most of day sorted.
during this week my aim is to get all 4 small people to sort out their clothes.and get them to muck out their rooms.i did them last time but they have let them get so disgusting i'm refusing to do them again.
rats all going ok.few squabbles but far less than i expected.

did just about all the ironing while watching the gran prix.
our bedroom all shiny and clean.few more loads washing to do.but dryer can't keep up and run out of room round house to drape it.

Pigpen-I see your thinking, luckily my dd's school don't break up until the end of this week and then we will be going away for most of the half term week, so they can mess up my friend and nan's house instead lol!:rotfl:

Have been good and put my ironing away(have to sneak into dd1's room to do it) and hoovered the lounge quickly as it couldn't wait till whatever day it's on as it was minging already!:o

Nicki-I hadn't realised you live close, I'm in Wigan!

enjoy, pigpen!

right, i'm in this week. i'm around mon-thurs am, have nothing work-wise in my diary and need to get on top of this place and start packing. i also have some marking to do (i mark for a trainee preachers course of all things!!) i meant to tell them i couldn't do this batch but didn't remember to, so i might as well do it. i think its one days work at the most.

feel tired tonight, busy day with taking the service this morning (which went really well), meal with friends at lunchtime, big long chat with OH this aft and then youth club tonight! so have a headache now. friend asked if we could chat on the phone and i said msn me instead as i'm too tired to talk!!

Clean oven if you didn't do it last week

Deep Clean Challenge

Evening all

Well what a let down sporting wise well at least I watched the F1 before I heard the result which is usually the case!

Half term here this week and a few things planned already so not sure how much flying will get done. But can I have a gold star please cause I have defrosted the freezer this afternoon. OK I had to as the door was left open :eek: at some point and it iced up enough that it would not close properly again I chucked every thing that was in there which fortunately was not too much but highly annoying all the same.

I must get some stuff on ebay this week, pictures taken of quite a bit but still to finish sorting them (pc froze part way through and had to be rebooted) and then listings down and uploaded.

Nice to see you Jill you've done loads today well done. I haven't done a fraction of what you have and I don't even have the excuse of a young baby to sidetrack me! Seeing you and Michelle talking about sorting and storing baby clothes reminded me that we have got loads up in the loft. I shall have to get myself organised.

Did I do anything this week end? No I did not!!
I'm pleased to see it's kitchen tomorrow, as apart from the floor and the dreaded oven, it's clean. And it's next to the bathroom so I can *hopefully* finally get that done.

I also need to pop into town tomorrow, TMNT DVD is out and I want to get my copy!:o I also need to post a parcel and take my library books back.

So tomorrow...
