I have no idea what has happened to my house, but it is a junk heap!

And, both the kids stepped in dog poo that was right at the steps to my house (and I know damn well what dog it was too) so their shoes are sitting outside and the house stinks.

Did my room earlier, but it is a pig sty again, I need to start sorting out the christmas stuff, will start tonight.

Having a :coffee: as it's day 5 of DS2 having a bad night phase. My head has started to ache constantly and when I do get sleep (when DS2 is not awake that is) I have weird dreams... last night was the worst so far, he was up coughing, then screaming for no reason and then at one point I ran through and he was singing! Oh, AND the painting with !!!!!! is still going on, and the vomiting at night too, I think I'm going mental!

Anyway, rant over, better get my coffee and get the bathroom done, the dinner on, the washing sorted (sh1tty and pukey sheets), the sofas washed and the floor cleaned and the shoes cleaned.

Right this is war!

Pigpen what about this pram, its what we have - we also used to have the elc pink one but it was out of stock when it broke so bought this instead and its been played with just as much.

Fire alight as it is so cold - DS1 is in the living room with his coat on.

Going to tidy kitchen and make an apple pie as the kids are only having soup for tea, with heaps of bread - I need to use up the stuff in the freezer this week to save cash and make space for Christmas.

Going to make 2 new soups for the weekend as we have guests - puy lentil soup and roasted pepper and tom soup.

Think I'lll wash up first.
