We are all fine, got a bit of a fight but a cake and some juice for the girls soon sorted them out.
Just waiting on a surveyor to come although i think its going to be tomorrow morning.
As OH is away for the next two days I am going to bring in the box from the garage of potential ebay stuff and start listing some of that tomorrow, I have some serious decluttering to do in the next 8 weeks0 -

Hope everyone is doing alright. Have done well even if DD decided that she didn't need a nap
Got to go and get DS from playschool now then make him dinner then plan on trying for a flying boogie. I always struggle to find 37 things to get rid off. Anyone got any suggestions. I don't know if I just ignore those things- Although I have got a load for the charity shop tomorrow

I have filled the second charity shop binbag so will get hubby to drop that in tomorrow.. wonder if I can fill another one tonight?? I only have 1 to go at the moment and I can't have him walking all lop-sided can I?? I went up to look for a bag big enough to post an ebay item in and found a seam of charity shoppable stuff.. I'd have ebay'd it but can't be bothered.. I just want rid.. so in the bag they went. Including all my D cup bras.. They were only £4 each.. I have kept the knickers though... I now have room in the drawer for the bras that do fit!!
I need to get the clean sheets on the bed so I'll be back up there soon.
I found the bag of nail polishes which I got for my nail lady.. in the place I first looked in!! ...ggrrrr.. isn't it always the way! Wonder if she'll be in tomorrow when I drop the grubs at school... I may pop in on the way home.
I told school I am picking Jb up at 12 when I collect tiddles.. I can't be faffed with going to collect her at 2pm.. she won't miss much in the lunch hour and an hour of 'school' in reception class so she can come home with me early. Her hospital appointment is 2:50 so hubby is collecting at 3pm.
Chillies all out in the garden so they aren't making in the house mess..
Best go play with my laundry and then wrap up the other couple of parcels.

Hi guys :wave:
Dusty *jumps on the band wagon* don't forget that appointment.
I delegated all my list to teenie as I was leaving for work, he's a good lad (mostly) and I knew he'd do it but boy I didn't realise he'd do it so well lol came in to a beautiful kitchen/living room/hallway, it was alright anyway but he even hoovered AND mopped the floors :eek: I haven't got a thing left to do, bless him :A he's even taken all my clean washing upstairs to their relevant rooms. Yes I am hiring him out!
I'm so glad he's done it cause I'm so tired today and now have a banging headache, work talked me into an 'extra' spring clean this week which is miles and miles away so that'll be fun :rolleyes: it's on Wednesday though so the flicks is now out of the question, will have to find another day.
Littleys at a sleepover tonight, and I've rung tomorrows customer to ask if it's ok I go early - it was OH is borrowing the car so he's dropping me off then picking me back up.
We've scoffed tea it's a bit early but we were all starving so I did it, it must be the weather there's a few of us been hungry today0 -
pigpen your children look smashing! really, really cute.
Have only just logged in - no time to read the thread properly, just a quick scan before I start dinner - been eating utter rubbish while away in Bristol and when we got home. I got too used to the easy life while away and couldn't be bothered when we got home, so yesterday lunch I just fed everyone soup from the freezer (was home made though) and sandwiches and salad for tea. Am feeling guilty now so roast beef is in oven and I'm going to go fill up the cake tins while the oven is on.
Of course this means I'll be a day behind so perhaps better if I don't fly too much this week pigpen? me being behind and all - not to mention having such a lot of patchwork and cross stitch I "need" to get on with- ooh yes and I "need" to add something to my blog........so can I pigpen? can I have this week off? can I?
