Living room is not too bad so may take the easy option and do it or may do the bathroom which is in need of a clean - I'll see how I feel tomorrow.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Oh no not the bead things, I got DS2 some from Ikea (they seemed to be cheaper in there), he really likes them, but then I have this problem of I have to find the iron, that's a challenge in itself, we'd need a treasure hunt to find it!
Sitting room, DP been warned that this evening with his brother they need to remove their own mess before I will take him home (they're currently sat playing on his new PS3 game and I have took the laptop into the dining room because the conervatory is too cold), instead of me clearing up the next morningbribed! Then it'll just be the vacuuming, dusting and mopping for me tomorrow
because I've told the boys they will remove everything belonging to them this evening or it gets binned (they know I mean it!) I might even do the front door now....
One day I might be more organised...........
