Morning, hope no-one minds if I start this?

I had an early start this morning because Natasha has decided 5.30am is a great time to leap around her cot and shout random things until someone gets up to play. :rolleyes:

Lots to do today, got to go and drag Ryan out of bed, get him to school and then tackle some housework. Also going to see if I can find an architect to come round to talk about our extension and discuss drawing up some plans (must measure the area at the side of the house first though, to see if what we want will fit there!).

Hope everyone has a good day. :wave:

    Morning Snaggles

    Small children are better than alarm clocks:D except mine who are now teenagers and would happily sleep till 1pm if I let them.:rolleyes: Hope you and yours are well.

    Off to work soon then I am going to lock myself in the house when I return and get caught up on the mountain of ironing and I have some work for a client to do which is only 3 weeks overdue!!
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Morning all :) Off out to wolverhampon tonight for my birthday night out but worried about the state of our finances considering we'll have to get a taxi back at god knows what time of the morning and we've only got £60 spare in the account which has to include taxi and drinking money... :( Either way I'm really looking forward to it :D If anything I'll just have to drink more before we go but I'm sure I'l get a few birthday drinks bought for me :D
    Other than that Ash is at nursery today and need to nip to the post office. Then when I get back I've got to tidy this dump up as we've got people stopping over and get ready myself!
    Hope everyone has a good day :D

    nowt happening here. Toddler pixie is still in her cot fast asleep after another disturbed night with her molars cutting thru. calpol at 5am seems to have done the trick.

    Baby pixie then decided to do what feels like a salsa on my bladder since about 6am so i'm wide awake.

    It looks like a crap day so i think me and toddler pixie may head over to my parents and annoy them for a little bit then see where the wind takes us. Probably to lidl for some shopping with a stop off at asda because they have a few special offers on that i fancy. Ribena Concentrate is £1, big box or rusks £1

    Good for you IA....that's great news 'finding' some unexpected money in your account. It means you can really have a great evening - enjoy yourself!
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T
