    Yey delivery man came back to pick up the parcel - admitted he had not read the note about not coming between 3 and 3:30 so that was why he returned! Just emptied 18 pens/pencils out of my handbag.

    2 kids fed, last one just got in from cricket so popped a jacket pot in the oven for me and him. Just going to update my list and then make mine and DS1's beds.

    Pigpen - so one picture free but if I use it for gallery 15p, 2 picutres 12p (?) but if I use one as gallery 27p - have I got it?

    sexymouse, hope you are feeling better soon. Must agree with what Dusty said, most people I know who work with children ended up ill at first, nurseries are supposed to be the worst, one friend had mumps and chicken pox within her first month.

    That's me done with the list (apart from kids PCs which I will do tomorrow) managed a level 3 day with a few extras thrown in. The front of the loo was vile again, do boys ever learn to aim properly?

    I've posted tomorrows list
    which I am not looking forward to doing myself as at the minute it'd be dangerous to walk to either side of the boys rooms without breaking something, little devils have messed them right up again! Think I might see if I can get them to do 15 minutes 'picking up' before swimming.

    Ended up going OTT in the kitchen aswell, including all the hob stuff is now in the sink soaking, my partner looked rather confused when I said 'I've done a Monday in the kitchen' I've even rearranged 2 cupboards.....
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    2+ pics 12p each
