Wohooooo we skipped Monday, that's good :rotfl:
Well for a change my kitchen isn't too bad, I haven't been able to be a messy cook today because 1) I have been too busy 2) I have forgot to buy batteries for my scales. Must be a good sign however batteries used to last me years in my scales, now they last monthsmust be cooking more. Pets do need flea treatments on, good point that one as I noticed it was on the calendar for Tuesday but then forgot.
ADDS TO LIST - MUST ORDER BATTERIES (after I find out what size they are....)
Well DP isn't back, but I've made him order a takeaway as there is no way in pookery I am cooking this late, definately removing a page from Tia's book for this one. Enough is enough! I am sick of having to cook a 2 course meal at 10pm when he's been away.One day I might be more organised...........

oops, I just posted on old thread! I promise I will try harder this week. I have two sons at home who have no excuse not to help. I will get them to clear out a cupboard as I am tired of mugs on worktops as no room in cupboards.
Cousin and hubbie coming for dinner and staying the night. :j
DD (Who moved out three weeks ago!) has been here since last Thursday. She will have to move into DS1s room as he is still away. She is staying here all of next week too as she is on a course and it makes it easier for her.
