Hello all,
Just popping in to say a quick hi.
I have a fabby new front door today and it opens too:j :j :j . The old one when I had visitors I had to tell them to kick the bottom while I waggled it to get it open.:rotfl:
Spare room deco has been put on hold owing to border glue just not wanting to come off, I'm sure they must use it to glue wings on jumbo jets :mad: Will have to wait now till DH comes back.
Hope you're all having a good week. I've managed to keep on top of everything here, it's all tidy.

This is quite a good site, if you go down the page and look on the right hand side it gives you a list of popular pages. Choose Maths Zone and if you scroll down the first part of the page it says Word Problems. This gives you a choice of games to play - the hoops one is probably best as if you click on help it explains how to work it out.

I'll keep looking!

When she's actually doing the problems though tell her to highlight the bits she needs so she doesn't get tripped up by other bits.

That probably doesn't make much sense - I'll see what else I can find and then I'll pm you later.

Just did a HHC, well 45mins really.
Got washing in from the line
Folded and put away dry washing on airer
Put damp washing from line onto airer
Made a coffee
Spoke to SIL on phone for 10 mins (apparently mum ranted, raved and annoyed SIL saying she didnt want to have to look after the kids during the holidays so that why SIL decided no lift to party) eek!
Put fresh linen on bed

Phew, dont think i have ever done so much so fast. Should def do that more often.

Pigpen and Hex2 I'm going to show my DH the pictures of your houses. He's always complaining that our house is messy, but it looks like a showhouse in comparison :D:rotfl:Maybe it will stop him being a nag :rotfl:

managed to:

• hoover bedroom wardrobes were being fitted in
• hoover landing
• hoover bathroom
• hoover doorways of ours and DS's room as they were only done the other day - just to get the shavings that had travelled
• assembled the 2 big airers again
• filed a pile of paperwork that i took upstairs
• hung up rest of 2nd load of washing
• emptied TD of 2nd load of washing, now needs folding and sorting, and i have clean pants :j
• emptied WM, but that needs hanging up still
• picked DS up (reedy piggy wiggy ate 2 lots of meat stew for lunch today and they were quite happy to let him) and they think he is teething again which could explain the poop and the dribbling - only 4 to go, so hopefully all in one go.
• found flea tablets and worming tablets under the sink - best do that tonight ready for them going in the cattery at the weekend

ok then, plan for rest of night:

• bath DS
• bedtime routine, while i watch home and away
• make omlette and garlic baguette for tea
• evening wash up and sort
• spend some time grooming eeach cat, and do the flea/worming treatments
• hang washing up
• perhaps get another load in, and hung up so all airers are full, then i can tackle ironing and packing tomorrow. :eek:

gunsandbanjos we are going to see 39 steps. It was one of the options in one of those boots gift packs - dinner and a london show. As we didn't have a burning desire to go to any of the shows more than another one, DH did some restaurant research, and as mostly they got bad reviews, we are doing planet hollywood followed by this show. Secretly i am happy as i think that was one of the better ones anyway. Plus, it will be nice to have a night out just the 2 of us.

the mouse story made me laugh. In our last house i found a bag with what i thought was a mouse. We broke up for the summer hols, and i left a banana in a carrier bag, which 6 weeks later looked like a dead mouse - made me go :eek: i can tell you
