    Beans on toast with egg on top for lunch - my favourite :D
    WUDUPA pots and pans used at lunch :T
    Cleaned out Sweetie - his cage needs a good scrub really, but I've thrown out all the loose stuff and he's now doing his 'what have you done? You know I don't like a clean floor?' inspection :rotfl: He is funny :D

    And I’m done!!! Wash all dry and ready for DH to iron this evening, bedroom lounge dining room and kitchen cleaned. Bolognese made for meal in the week and 1 for the freezer. Bread just baking and chicken ready to roast for supper. Pack ups made for tomorrow and Ikea furniture put together!! I think I shall have a soak in the bath after supper, just need to do a little work prep and that is it!

    Didn’t quite achieve as much during the week as I wanted to but definitely felt like the weekend was easier with not quite as much to do so that is a good result. Will keep on going with flying I think....

    Have a good evening all

    Before I went out I scrubbed the kitchen sink and s&sd the downstairs toilet. Back now and don't plan to do much more than prep tea and packed lunches.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    I survived getting the bathroom sorted.. it took a little longer than anticipated but I also added the fitting of a raidator and he didn't overcharge me I don't think.. and I can now have a shower in my own home.. so it is in use daily.. I bloody love it.. don't ever take for granted the simple things like being able to have an actual wash!! I'm so SPARKLY!!!! I feel like a fairy!



    Blods again on Friday morning at 11.. I had a call at 3:30 saying they had the FBC back and it was horrendous and i had to go for transfusions right now and half the other stuff was low/borderline and they don't know how I'm still standing.. Waiting on the thyroid function ones and then another phone call no doubt... they are being hysterical about that but they won't tell me why there is allegedly an issue or a cause and refusing to do a referral to endocrinology to find out why they think there is a problem.. numbers on a piece of paper do little to convince me.

    Washing all done and folded.. not away though because I have no time to do anything.. I haven't even picked up the laptop since Tuesday maybe? ..

    My whole house is in utter disarray and I have had AF trying to do me in all week so nothing has been done since the beginning of the week.

    I've been spending money on little christmas presents for the girls.. some colour in canvasses for Squeak and bubble bath for Dot.

    I have also decided I am going to have a word with Dots teacher and see if we can get some help in an ADHD assessment.. she is driving me insane and while she is very very able at school and her behaviour has improved the overall lack of focus, lack of sleep, jumping up and down, echolalia (currently shrieking Pringles every 10 seconds!!) and the hand flapping is driving me doolally-tap.. Simple instructions such as take your pjs away/brush your teeth, get out of the door (to school not to stand randomly in the street) are all really painful experiences.. and the eating of everything from rocks and hair (not always just her own) to licking shopping trolleys and cars is just too much ... I am not imagining this is not standard behaviour!



    we have Twinkle an afternoon nursery place from September.. right this second I cannot wait.. she is being a pain! If she rocks her stupid horse on my feet once more they are both going in the bin!

    Round.. the singing made me cry.. it is those little things that are the light in the tunnel.The mess in my house is the only thing I can see.. it is driving me insane.. I just want to cry!



    *fling stupid horse to the other side of the room... child now howling!* 5 times I've told her to move it away from my feet and she rocked on them again!



    She has wailed and snivelled all day, I think she is coming down with a cold or something. The other three are soooooo very loud.. and I have a headache.

    Oh.. I dumped a huuuuge pile of stuff at my sisters..

    We got new car seats for the middle 2 so I have 2 empty boxes and 2 big car seats added to my house mess.. I have a radiator in the back room from the bathroom.. and the bathroom cabinets on the landing..

    I need some help, I am really stuck .. I can't find energy or time to make a start on the flinging and the entire task is so overwhelming.

    And love and hugs and sparkles to everyone..
