    Good morning everyone:hello:

    Gonna print out the list and get on, so if you see me on and list not updated with everything crossed off, kick my but.:rotfl:

    Other things
    1) hubby bloods to be took
    2) wash clothes in suitcase
    3) unpack
    4) look for a base for bed

    That should keep me busy for awhile.

    Mudbath hope your wrist isn't to sore, hope you have a knitting needle ready.

    Lil_me thats great about the debts.

    Denise well done flip hope my list is looking half as good as that later.

    Had a lovely time at the science center and the kids loved it, hotel was good except for the smoke alarm going off on friday night at 3 in the morning really freaked the kids out and they all wanted to go home, took along time to settle. Everyone left the building fire brigade there but no members of staff showed up until the end and just said everything was fine and to head back to are rooms not easy with 3 kids and 5 flights of stairs. They didn't even say what had happened.:mad:
    Saturday was good done a bit of shopping and hubby away to football, then traveled most of yesterday and home for 6 last night, kids bathed and we all went to bed pretty early.

    Right cuppa, hubby up and get on with this list.
    See you all later. Oh anyone else with snow this morning??
    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.
    :j :j
  • Hi everyone,

    NKJAL, Moneybubbles, angelnikki and SummerMoon - hope you have lots of fun this week!

    Mudbath - (hugs) for you

    Really bad start to the day... we have snow (:j on behalf of the little people) but the gritters hadn't been out on our road (which is strange - loads of dairy farms round here - normally the slightest hint of bad weather and there are orange lights everywhere!)

    *So the school run normally takes 35mins - it took 1 hour 30mins today - DD1 missed the bus for swimming and was really upset... DD2 had ramdomly started chanting MOVE! (wonder where she got that from :rotfl: ) Thankfully it only took the usual 25 mins to get home though.

    Now I feel like I am running behind already - but I will enjoy my coffee... and then I will go do some more chucking out... Did I tell you - If you really wanted to you can now open the door in the bathroom upstairs? AND you also have a safe path to the toilet!!! Progress :D

    * We did leave early btw - only 10 mins though - it took 10 mins to desnow the car :rotfl:

    Will report back later and ty to Pigpen - I love lounge and h/s/l day!

    Oh.. I did an oops this morning..

    Someone opened a paypal dispute over something they haven't received yet (cos I couldn't find it!! but have now!)

    It is on its way and I put the recorded delivery number into the paypal thing.. and it is the wrong one.. oops!!! I have emailed paypal to ask them to correct it.. so we shall see.. I have 4 and I did the wrong one.. what a twit.. Anyway.. it should be there today or tomorrow or Wednesday if they are being super slow anyway and paypal won't do anything before then regards the dispute.. hohum!!

    Best go play with my electrical appliances!

    The children have told me not to tidy the front room and said they'll do it when they get home.. so I'm holding them to it.. what are the odds they think I'll charity shop all their stuff that is strewn around the room?? lol

    I have a few ebay pics to do as well.. I'll go do those now!
