Evening all

Have spent the day putting more cr*p - I mean more 'collectables' up on the bay of e and between the stuff I put up on Friday and the stuff I put up today (35 things in total) I already have 7 firm bids and several watchers and I know one of my regular punters will buy another five. Which is nice

Well done :T

Right.. I've not caught up on last weeks list.. but I've not done bad.. this week MUST be easier as 3 rooms which were trashed last week are now reasonably reasonable.. Apart from this here back room which is a complete bear pit! It will NEVER be tidy!!! I've put on the end of the last thread what I didn't get done last week.. and it wasn't a huge amount I suppose!!

I've got my new bedding on my bed.. but my bed appears to have collapsed on me.. Oh the joy of Victorian furniture!!!

I better be in as well this week, if you will have me. I know I keep disappearing but I am such a bad housewife, it takes me all my time to just keep up with the washing. I really need to get better organised, and stop doing fun things instead. Pigpen, please kick me into line...

I better start as I mean to go on and work my way through the school uniforms. Question: How do you make housework more bearable? It is such a thankless job, I clean it, it gets messed up, I iron it, it is back in the washing basket the next day. What do you all do to motivate yourself?

I tend to shag Daniel Craig in my head a lot.

Do I get a cookie if I go start the kitchen and hoover the living room, oh and wipe down the sofas?

Embb - well done to your DD, fingers crossed, hows your OH this week - still yakking on? LOL

Tia- poor horse, love horses well any animal really, hope she bounces back soon

HollyH - hope your DS's foot is better tomorrow, good luck

Been out this morning deciding what we need for the garden, finally got a few ideas together. Also been to the gym for an hour earlier and had a massive cardio session so feel better for that.

We've just had a massive thunderstorm, HUGE hailstones. Poor little dog was terrified, I really worry about his heart when hes like that. Ended up giving him half of one of his valium's so he's flying high now bless him.

Will be working from my own list again this week as it seems to work better for us.

Monday
WM
Ironing darks
Library?
Meal plan/List
Food shop
Budget

Off for a mooch about on here, DH watching snooker *yawn* and I'm waiting for Gavin and Stacey

Kicking I can do!!! I'll be wanting to see lots of things ticked off those lists!!

We have a reward system now.. dog biscuits!!!! Makes it much more bearable!

There is also time on Friday for yourself.. and some nicer jobs.. I'm not as mean as Lil_me lol.. she wanted us to clean the oven.. I'm happy with cleaning a knob!!!

Tia.. I may stretch to an early dog biscuit if you get those jobbies done tonight!

Well I went to drop A off for the St George's Day parade and ended up taking another Cub up to the next village but one and staying there as as soon as we got home it would have been time to turn round and go back again! Thankfully it stayed dry all afternoon, there was a play ground for W to use until the parade started. We walked with them all and the marching band, W thought it was great. The church was packed and A had to stand and read out the Cub Scout promise *proud mummy moment* and then we all paraded back.

As a result no flying here today, but then what's new!!!!

Oh well count me in for next week.
