    Why, why, why did you all have to mention Lakeland??? Brilliant code, time for some retail therapy me thinks LOL!!!

    Dusty - woohoo on the cheque, I used to sit for hours on one of those balls when preggies, it was lovely for my back and dodgy hip. In fact think I'll have to get in out of garage
    Maralum - fingers crossed on the house exchange
    AnW's - cake sounds great, my mum makes cakes like that, she made my wedding cake and does quite a lot for people. Have you tried ringing your local cake craft shop, they'll have numbers or will quote you themselves and aren't always £££
    THANK YOU FOR THE HUGS - again, why I do I feel like I'm always moaning and being hugged??? Erm, cos I am moaning

    Well, have decided to 'shake me-sen' *said in brood Notts slang* Mum rang and spoke to her for a bit and then DS announced he was tired (probably just wanted to get out the say) so hes dressed and in bed. Mega quick shower for me, hair done, face on and my smartest causal clothes and now want to kick some butt! Anyone feel better with their 'war paint' on?

    Have sent text to DH and one to my sister explaining why I went off, I don't want to fall out with her but I'm sick of keep hearing her carp and excuses for someone and do things that are very dis-respectful, its time people took some responsablity for their actions. Not replied so prehaps ignoring me, oh well, I can't be two faced any longer.

    So, when DS is up its lunch, shopping, park for puddle jumping (if it stops raining cos its so hard it'll wash him away) and then see where we end up.

    Oh and I have done some flying and bits crossed off, using up my anger!

  • I've done mine :)
    So far I've:
    • emptied and sorted (recycling) 2 upstairs bins
    • put away dry washing that was hanging
    • put away son's dry washing that was on their stairs
    • put daughter's dry washing in basket to be sorted before putting away (a ton of this!)
    • sorted a load of towels and sheets and mop head to wash on hot
    • put washing on to cook :)
    Now I am going to make a mug of honey and lemon to soothe my sore throat, and son's cos he's still off school today.

    Hope you get a bit of calm from them both tracyg ((HUG))

    Okay - that'ds more like it! DH and I are taking it in turns to do HHCs today, I've just finished mine, so he's vacuuming the hall etc until it's my turn again. It seems to be working out well.

    The kitchen has now had a quick s&s, the sitting room is clear, but certainly not clean :o . Have mount washmore to climb today. One load done, looks like six to go. That's before we do a pick up from the other rooms!

    Dh is slowing down, time to go and crack the whip a bit. Bless him, he really hates doing this! Well...tough poopy.

    Any idea why my bunny is trying to dig her way out of a plastic cage?

    If she is digging in a corner it's just her playing and burning off energy. Throw a toy or a cardboard tube for her. My bunny has a toy car! One of those large beetle cars and she chases it!

    If she is gathering bedding under her chin she is nesting and will be cranky for a while till she realises she is not pregnant.

    Rabbits are a bit dense at times! But we loves them!

    I'm just taking DS2 to nursery and will be doing a few HHC (what is a HHI?) when I get back, anyone up for a few from 1pm to 2pm? Infact I may as well make it a Whole Hour Challenge and then have a coffee at 2pm.
