    Tia they look gorgous and a fiver bargain.
    Mumoftwo can't see any pictures and i'm so nosey.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Update.
    List.
    1) Clean out fire and bring in a bag of coal and lit.
    Brought in sticks hubby can get the coal when he gets up.
    2) Collect all dishes from round the house and get them washed.
    3)Clear livingroom of all rubbish, clothes so that it's easier late to clean.
    4) [strike]Dust everywhere.
    [/strike]5) [strike]Give it a really good hoover.[/strike]
    6) [strike]Clean both windows and window sills.[/strike]

    Right another coffee, i'll go hyper yet.:rotfl:
    DS2 still being a pain.:mad: Now getting somewhere with this house, livingroom looking great but if someone came up to the house they still need to go through two rooms of crap before getting to livingroom so gonna hit the entrance.

    7)Clean clutter in hall.
    8)Brush and mop floor.
    9)Clean window inside and out.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    tia they're gorgeous - what a great find :T

    I can see the pictures :pmumoftwo they don't look too bad at least you can see that underneath it's clean at least, all the stray cups are my bug bear in the kids rooms grrr

    Right, hoovered littleys room and the landing, stripped her bed but I need to lift up the mattress cause there's loads of bits under it :rolleyes: so will need the dustpan and brush - not such a good idea having a mattress that's incapsulated really :rolleyes: fluffed and shook her rugs and covered over the mucky patches with them that are on her carpet :D no I'm not a minger lol (well I am but not this time).....they're from where I cleaned the muck off and it stained and it was only water !!!!!!! stoopid carpet she's getting laminate this year.

    My kitchen all of a sudden looks like a bomb site, how the hecky peck did that happen :confused: best go do it.
  • Morning ladies

    Am still stuck at home - should have been back at work today but still have no voice (some use that is for someone whose living is answering phones and making announcements, tho my OH thinks its bliss biggrin.gif). My big toe is now black and bruised where I tripped over yesterday - probably come out in sympathy with dad's dodgy foot.

    Happy 30th birthday Rach beerchug.gif - not long now to the big day - congrats

    Kaz - ((((hugs)))) - hope DD finally went to school and that your headache isn't in for the day - well done on making it to the parenting class and hope OH gives you some more support

    Welcome pink fairy - do it a bit at a time and have fun

    Good luck lilo

    Witchypoo - sometimes you need to just really tackle one thing - well done on clearing that dresser - that's another energy drain that you've got rid of.

    Have still got a load of stuff outstanding from yesterday as got majorly distracted by the delish David Tennant instead. Gonna have some breakfast then back for a HHC x
    I'd rather be watching CSI!
