I'm finely finished the bedroom
Now i can't wait to go to bed tonight think i might go shortly as i'm knackered now but i really need to do the kitchen first, i can't actualy get through the room.

Right better get on.

AnW'sMum liking that idea think i might hide something of OH tomorrow and send him round the house to look for it .

Evening all! Not done too much today, been into town this morning then walked dogs and thats been about it. Managed to hoover through and wiped kitchen floor, did a bit of ironing too.

Supposed to be going over to some neighbours for 'drinks' later but really can't be bothered and would rather just go out with DH since we have babysitters but feel we should go. But don't want to. But should. Trying to make DH decide what to do.

The christmas decs are really getting on my nevres now, can't wait to take them down and have a good clean. Cards have already come down. Just want this year to finish and start a new year, love it as you feel like a new beginning.

Out tomorrow having a second Christmas day at MIL's - am dreading it! Why we have to do it all again is beyond me.

Hugs to those in need, well done Vanilla on what you've done today, Lil me hope your feeling better!

evening all. not a happy bunny, didn't get the jobs done that i wanted to. when i got back from tesco, i was worn out hope im not coming down with this bug that everyone seems to have or had. i'm not making a list for tomorrow, just gona see how i feel in the morning. spent the last hour trying to download pics on to ebay with out much luck, where is DS when i need him. i might make him some flapjacks for WHEN he comes home from his dads, not seen him for 3 days and i want him back now, even if he is pain at times and never tidies his room (well he does, but only by a teenagers standard), but i love him.

Well ladies, I'm feeling REALLY rough now. Have managed to do some things - can you tell I'm food orientated? I seem to have done all the food management/cooking stuff but not the heavy duty cleaning! I shall have to do that in the morning I fear.

Evening all.

Been to JL and returned all unwanted items. Got a sheet in the right size this time and another jumper to try.

Managed to get a pair of troussers half price in debenhams for DS3 - he has grown out of nearly all of his. Also got a bargin £2 logic puzzle (from £10) for DS1 to replace a present he had a duplicate of which I will now use as a party gift.

Did food shop for tomorrow and got lots of great bargins as I was in there so late they were doing the final down to 20p knock downs - never got those before. Things like organic sliced cooked turkey from £3.19 to 20p

Made a delicious cottage pie for tea with reduced mince and everybody ate it all.

No flying except laundry today.

Hope to empty compost heap tomorrow and just S&S but back to flying on Monday when OH goes back to work.

A&Wsmum hope you have/had a fab time at the party

Evening

Not much done here today.

Managed to walk doogie down to Mr T to get a refund on some Xmas paper - lovely paper but totally covered in glitter so sellotape wont stick which I discovered at 6pm on xmas eve !!!

Have also sorted the washing - I think I have 11 loads to do and thats without the bed linen so will be busy over the next couple of days. Go back to work on Wed and OH at work Mon/Tues on days so should be able to get lots done especially if kids behave themselves.

Am going to try and get OH on the grocery challenge with me this month as we have been spendin between 275 and £300 per month for 4 of us which is way too much. He's the worst culprit as always goes in when he collects DD from school and they have the reduced shelf filled up - excellent in the long run but the freezers full.

Hope you all have a relaxing evening and will see you all tomorrow.

PS CONGRATULATIONS TO MARTIN

In fact now I come to think of it I am sure it is in my kitchen or was it with all the paperwork in here :rolleyes: lol

He's on his way round!!! You should see our study it's fab! I've still not told him but as he's not stressing I don't see the need to let him know just yet:rolleyes: . Does anyone else think they might have his paperwork xx
