Good morning

My ancient cat woke me up early by getting into bed for a cuddle, so I got up when my alarm went off. The dog has been walked, hoovered up the LR and had breakfast before picking up my LO as his mummy is not well. She was going to bring him round, but I said I would pick him up to save her coming out. I've told her to go back to bed, and under no circumstances is she to do housework! It's all part of the personal service of a childminder (I'll always help when I can
)
Baby is now snoozing, so I am having a quick cup of tea before heading out to toddler group. I have about 1 1/2 hours after he goes before the school run, so I may see if I can get something else crossed off my list then. I have an appetite for frogs now, and I have a few!
Have a good day everyone0 -
Morning all
Late in but I’ve been busy so far
WM swishing
Dailies done
Car taken in for MOT
Dropped DH at station so that I can have his car
Top up shop done and put away
I’m working now but just waiting for kettle to boil for a cuppa
Any more flying will have to be done after work, supper is defrosting so it’s quite an easy one, back later on!0 -
Morning all :wave:
Well, I survived the exercise class - 10 min warm-up, 15 min each cardio, strength and balance, and 5 min stretching. It was good, with two instructors who took it in turns to lead each section while the other went round the class to help people like me with dodgy shoulders, knees etc. I shall try to go every week, but I can go on a different day to another venue if Tuesday afternoon is booked for something else
Today's list (mostly carry-forward) looks something like this:
[STRIKE]- dailies
- phone to book front door repair[/STRIKE]
- shower and dress
- check finances
- send Toddler Group email reminders
- strip my bed and do WMx1
- remake bed with recently laundered spare set
- add three more events to FB page
- finish sorting and filing papers and books in the study - almost there
- make a couple of phonecalls
- order 48 battery operated tea lights for the Toddlers - the set of 24 that I bought last year are well used and much loved but are beginning to run down, and I don't want a dark Christmas :eek: :xmastree:
- QHI
- DH to a railwayman's funeral at 12 (not yesterday - he got the date wrong :rotfl:) so early lunch
- remind DH about his GP review appointment at 2.30
- Rosie's walk
- Pick up DGD1+2 from school
- buy sausages and potatoes for tea at 5.00
- out to a lecture this evening, in the nearby market town so only a 15 min drive.
Another 'bitty' day, but it's the only way to get things done
Fingers crossed that your DH remembers the SC, Fayolle
Hope your poorly knee gets better soon, dancemum (((hugs)))
Excellent frog munching, Goodintentions :T
Hope your DS makes it through to the end of the week without having to take more time off, YorkshireLass.
Hope the sun is shining for everyone as it is here. More (((hugs))) spoons and sticks where necessary. Have a good day all xx0 -
