    Afternoon, just a quick one before I go out for DS1s performance (I'm more nervous than he is I think!)

    jjef well done, that's some clicking! Dare I say I forget most of the time to do mine :o

    Been to collect photos, bought cards for 2 friends new babies, 2 pink ones, registered for my next courses with OU, picked up some of the live food & ordered next weeks, collected money from my sisters that she owes me, done some of the bathroom, think that is about all so far.

    Need to go and get DP up so we actually get to the performance on time, oh before I go, so you can all say awwww

    Little Matthew :D yes resorted to socks for scratch mitts as he likes to scratch himself and he pulls mitts off, they go up to his arm pits but it works!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Back from shops. Had some inspiration whilst out so have a few present ideas I need to investigate.

    Unpack shopping - lunch and then back for a list update.

    Afternoon!

    Lil_me - he's so gorgeous. I've just had a gooey moment when I took my friends little boy to nursery so she could go and visit her husband. All the littlies were just adorable. I do not want another, I do not want another. Actually it's almost too late as DH is booked in for a certain little procedure tomorrow (hehe).

    Jobs for today;
    1) Bathroom
    2) Sort dried clothes
    3) General tidy
    4) Empty basket at bottom of stairs.

    Catch up later xx
    January budget
    Nothing left!

    Afternoon all.

    Two loads of washing on the line but not drying, although the sun has come out now. It's still too damp and cold.

    Went to shops with DD this morning and got a few odds and ends I needed. She and her boyfriend are putting the Christmas tree up now. Well she's putting it up and he's watching television......

    I haven't actually done any cleaning today but it's pretty much up together anyway. Asda coming for the third time this afternoon with missing shopping. It's been like a marathon but hopefully that will be it for this week. Hope next Friday's isn't like that or I'll never get everything!

    Afternoon everyone! I'm feeling much more cheerful today, and don't know why I've had a couple of gloomy days, I don't do depression! I didn't even switch the computer on yesterday, although I did do a bit in the main bedroom, and DS1 spent hours listing stuff on ebay. I do hope it sells for him.

    Level 3 in the cloakroom and bathroom today, and just off to factory shop to get present for DD. Can't say what, as she drops in here from time to time, to check up on what I'm saying about her, and to see if there are any photos of eligible young men to consider!

    Still haven't bought main present for DS1 - because he wasn't feeling too great, he hasn't had the energy to think of anything he really wants. I may just give him a promise to get the jacket he wants in the sales.

    Apart from those, I have almost done, just a few little things.

    Just heard from my sister that my mother has been moved to another ward, although she can't find out why. My father's very stressed and upset about it - he doesn't cope well with change from routine anytime, but after the last four months, not at all well. I'll try ringing the hospital and see if I can get any information.

    (((to all those who need them)))

    Just tipping a cuppa down my neck before I have to collect from school.. I am freezing though feeling less wound up now 4 more packages have arrived.. I've also ordered a couple more hings for the boys today.. they have very little and they are 342 from littlewoods so not too horrific.

    Still needing to find a pram for Tiddles though.. she has plenty of presents but I can't leave it until November to buy her a pram.. I'll just throw something in my mothers direction to give her.. :D
