I'll join you JJ I have managed to get all the living room hoovered and found yet more glass - need to wet wipe in there and sort all the toys with the kids.

Ready steady (I'll collect my cuppa en route) go.....

pigpen

Dustykitten

:cool: Soappie there has been a little red car parked right outside your house for most of the day - not sure if it is a fiat?:cool: I'll take a photo in case :cool:

Mudbath

poohbear - we normally batch cook as there's four of us but with the other three being away and nothing already cooked i've defintely given in, lol. yip, i'm still in plaster for another two weeks (praying it will come off then!!) the spinning does get better. i've now realised when a spin is coming on and if i stand very still and don't move my head at all it can go in a couple of minutes. most of my friends now know if i grab hold of them the just have to stay very still for me. i really hope it clears up for you soon as it's not nice xx

completed in hhc;
bin bag fling
- [strike]
woodwork in hall / stairs
- drawers in clinic

i also want to;
- sort recycling
- sort composting
- fill bird feeders
- s/s kitchen
[/strike]

so now my favourite bit - filling a bin bag and chucking it out! xx

Mudbath, glad to hear it's not worse. Hope that plomker chokes on his own big fat tounge! :mad:

Hex, don't know about you, but I feel worse! My throat isn't so bad but I'm now at the stage of choking and sicking up all the gunk from my chest. My sinuses are worse too so headache is bad. And lets just say Hubby is a w***er!!! :mad:

Pigpen, could hubby try and find a flat share? Caravan would do but he may get lonely... and a flat share might work out about the smae price anyway. If he gets some nice flat mates right enough... If it's a college they may have student flats? I'd say he'd simper more than you!!! :rotfl:

Right, so far I have had a quick tidy up cos the OT woman came out to assess DS2. We are getting handrail in the loo, banisters on the stairs and hand rails outside on the steps. She asked if there was anything else and I said no cos we have just slabbed the garden, she then said that they would have done it! :mad: and it would be maybe a bit more level than OH job! :rotfl: No rails for the back garden though would be a PITA for us.

Took DS2 to nursery, was a bit of a joy ride-joy ride, my vision went funky on the way home and I filled the car with diesel. My £40 only gets my 500miles now instead of 600 cos of teh price hikes.

OH hoovered. big woop-dee-bloomin-woop.... He is now at work till midnight. Good.

10mins and I have to go do the school collection run. Better check the bank accounts quickly.

Good website for the kids http://www.hedgehogs.gov.uk/main/main.html

me and DS1 spent ages yesterday finding all the cars so he could enter the win a mountain bike comp. They had been playing it at school.

Cheers tia.. lol... he is looking for further details today.. it might already have gone.. but I'm just living in hope for now lol.. I told him off last night for trying to shatter my dreams of him being away 5 days out of 7 lol.. aren't I mean!! lol

I am so skint it is disgusting.. I've done a tesco shop and kept to an absolute minimum and still spent £70 and that is before I buy any fruit or veg this week.. I need to give my mother £150 and pay my phone bill and I am penniless... might have to send hubby out selling his body!!

Most of my ebay stuff has watchers but only 1 bidder so far.. and why have I got 4 watchers on a BIN item? if they want it why don't they just buy it.. or stop watching it.. cos I'm getting stressed now..

How am I going to pay the rabbits vet fees tonight? *prays it is dirt cheap*

I may start the simpering thing.. or I could just cry.. or I may just shut the f**cup and deal with it like I normally do!

Lunchtime - woohoo!

DS made lunch and a pot of tea for us. Now he's gone upstairs to do his online lessons (study on home PC) - anyone heard of Accipio?

I'm watching Diagnosis Murder - always helpful ideas on there for future reference.:rotfl:

I've been all morning working on one candidate's portfolio - I sympathise with anyone else out there marking.

I suppose I'll have to do some more in a while, but after :coffee: anyone up for a HHGC? It's not raining at the moment.

Hi everyone,

Just back in so coffee in hand while the kids are playing upstairs - burning off some energy since they have had to sit still for so long today!

PrettyPennies - turbolister is free to download and can be found here http://pages.ebay.co.uk/turbo_lister/index.html

Pigpen - competition for stair rods - https://housetohome.ipcmediasecure.com/competitions/show/id/3718 if it is any good for you. It is amazing the lists I get on to :rolleyes:

Johanne - (hugs) and take AnW's advice it is spot on...

Hex - Happy Birthday to your DS!

I am going to sort kitchen and utility today - the last bit of lino is finally being fitted tomorrow. I will then spend the rest of the day doing listings. Especially the 2 buggies in the hall - the only things that are making it look messy WM fund needs all the help it can get at the min :rolleyes:

Catch up with you all later.

hi all
done nothing flying wise today. Went to the gym this morning then did an Asda shop - our holiday next week is self catering (Centerparcs) so I thought I'd see if we can fit some food in the car providing the baby clobber leaves some room. So like you Mudbath, I have stocked up on ready meals. Hate it, they never taste that great and portions are always titchy. And I didn;t get much for my £110 :eek: :eek: Bought tons of nappies, wipes and baby food though so that explains a vast poriton of the cost! While we're away though we thought we could cook for ourselves half the time and maybe get a takeaway or do a restaurant a couple of nights, its a holiday after all.

We've just had lunch, me and the girls, DD is playing nicely and LO is ready for a sleep - typical _ I have to leave for school in 20 minutes. She will have to doze in the highchair. I still have DW to empty and reload and shopping to put away before we go. My friend is bringing her girls round after school and the kitchen is a bombsite. (She's also my hairdresser, is doing a patch test today as she is colouring my hair on Saturday - hurray - the grey will be covered up for a while)

Right, off to sort the kitchen out
Jill

btw thanks for all the feet replies - what a gross subject - Mudbath how do you do it ???? yuck. anyway bought some heel bam stuff (not vegesex LOL) today so will be trying that from tonight. At least only one of them actually hurts now.
