HHI
Start guest list for wedding
Meet up with friends tonight to discuss making invites
Reasonable start -will do HHI out in the sun from 4-4.30 - lots of clean but crinkled laundry sitting about - I might cheat as well and sling it in the TD on fast iron first to get the worst of the creases out (god i'm a lazy mare).
Until then will have a little wander on here..................
I'd rather be watching CSI!0 -
Ooh, forgot also cleaned out my naughties cupboard and organised it - looks like Big Gibbon has been troughing the chocs on the sly - I feel smacked legs coming on
, especially as I am trying hard to be good so I won't look like a satin balloon on the wedding pics.

Trying not to stress - DS1 has not come home from school yet - he usually gets in at 3:20, he never goes anywhere else. Worried since the window incident may have affectd him - kids they cause us so much stress!!!!!!!
Whoever was washing baby car seat cover - thanks it has made me do mine as I want to get rid of it too!
Going to put washing on the line then hhc on the AGA whilst it is cool.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Phew, outside windows washed, I even did the glass on the front door, and the communal hall door! Scorchio out there! I need to buy some suncream as I could feel my feet (in sandals) and the back of my neck burning. I hate getting sticky hands when I have to put it on thou.
Just got time for a quick rest before the 4pm HHC starts.
There's a lot of naughty kids today, I had a couple of drivers grump at me today. Do you think it's the weather?

In my old school (7 years ago now!:eek:) Year 11 was studying on the school grounds. Year 12 the kids were allowed off site.
Right off to start 4pm HHC! Ready, Steady, GO!

but to teenagers, all us [STRIKE]old[/STRIKE] grown up people are stupied, know nothing, don't have a life, have no taste in music or fashion and are just plane embarsing. we are just here to clothe them, cook, clean and feed them, not to mention hand out all that money that they still think grows on a tree, even when they are 16. my DS asked me if he could leave home the other week to live wih his mates in a city centre appartment, when i asked how he was going to pay £200 a month for it while at college and who would do is cooking, he said he would get a job to fit in a round it and that he would cook, he can't even turn the cooker on here. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:Back on MSE again! to take control of my finances and not let it control me. :T May grocery challenge £41.96/1400
