    Mudbath.. pathetic excuse.. we have 2 hands for a reason.. the vacuum only needs 1 hand.. ditto the broom, duster, bog brush, toy picking up.. and I'm pretty certain we can find a way to accomplish everything else as well.. a bag of parrots biscuits for the pain and get on lass!!

    Wow, didn't expect you to be so nice pigpen! xx

    I forgot I said I'd have my friend's 2 children after school. Not sure what time they are going home...!
    DS just went and bought me a cauliflower and its tiny!! and it was the only one there!!! I guess I'll give the kinders that and we'll have....I don't know!!!
    What a nightmare....just had my crunchie and I have some forrero rochers as well. That should keep me going at least...!
    will have to get the children to do their tidying later...

    Nice to see you back poohbear, glad your treatment has done you good.

    Lots of changes for you - hope they're all good :)
  • Hey there everyone,

    Well managed to get everyone home in one piece! Roads are a lot better than this am - loads of people complaining the gritters hadn't been out - so what were they doing?!

    Ended up only getting the lounge and the hall hoovered before having to leave (early) to go get the kids. Although found new and more suitable homes for bits and bobs. Also managed to find a bit more bathroom :rotfl:

    Although I didn't manage to offload any bags or boxes today - will need to try and do that on Thursday now...

    So PoA once the kids are in bed is:

    Outfit for ds for WBD,
    Look out something suitable for dd1 & dd2 for WBD (since they both know what their favourite book is!)
    Letter for Nationwide,
    Sew name lables into new school kit,
    Empty the bath :o :rotfl:
    Put the bags of stuff in the bath (caught ds with his nose in them this morning!)
    Put the stuff for the charity shop on the counter in the bathroom.
    Then look at Mondays list again!

    (((hugs))) for those in need.

    better go get supper on the go - catch you later.

    Oh what a day! Went to see mum this morning and she was once again really upset which made me upset. The staff suggested I leave and it was lunchtime anyway. They said she had been weepy lately and Im wondering if she is depressed. i went and washed my face etc and when I went back along she was sitting calmly waiting for her lunch.Went off to my voluntary job and DD turned up upset as probs with GS1 his partner and his ex. Ive come home with a mega headache.

    Managed to get the dailies done this morning. Plus a load of washing. Living room and stairs ok as I did them at the weekend. t work tomorrow and Ive got my First Aid refresher. Oh well gets me away from work a bit.

    Pigpen OOOOH thats a bonny bruise you have there.

    Hugs to all who need them and hi to the newbies.

    Im going make tea and I will put some lavender in my burner to get rid of the headache.
