    kaz have a little bit of me time too. Don't burn out.

    :rotfl: thanks hunny, I'm having it now sat eating my breakfast at a lovely clean computer. I had me time on Thursday I went out with my friend - no kids, so thats an extra one for me, ussually only manage going out for works Xmas meal so this time broke the year up :rotfl:

    Well WM and TD all swapped over again, One living room is all hoovered and cleaned (althought floors hoovered it really needs mopping as well - maybe tonight when kids in bed)

    Going to have a look at the who's who if I can find it so thanks to boddy and everyone else giving us novices some pointers.

    Oooh I just looked round and it looks lovely :D (but for how long!)

    Morning all

    Those of you on Facebook, if you search for "Ol' Style MSE" you'll see the group I set up for us. The thread about who's who is on that discussion board but you need to be a member of the group to see it. Just click on "Join group" on the right hand side and I'll add you ;):D

    Hugs to all as my brain is not holding information yet this morning and I can't remember who said what and what I was going to reply:confused:

    Ex is coming to take DD out for the day and should be here in about 30 mins hence the being up before 10am on a Sunday :rotfl:

    Plans for today :
    • Dishes
    • S&S kitchen
    • Laundry (dark pink lights towels rug ) & in TD as I don't think they'll stay on the washing line as its so windy :eek: Not to mention the dark grey clouds :rolleyes:
    • Hoover through
    • Dust through
    • Paperwork (sorted the desk last night and found loads of pending stuff :rolleyes: )
    • STUDY - I need to do this as I'm way behind, thankfully it's mainly reading ;)
    • School stuff for tomorrow
    • Ebay listings if I'm inspired :o
    • Make beds
    • Tea (fall out)
    • Meal plan or at least an uptodate inventory
    • Bath for DD (by 6pm so we can watch Bewitched :D )
    • Finances
    • Find my motivation & sanity ....but I think I must have left them somewhere else because they're not in this house :rotfl:
    Right, best go do the dishes...:wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    All breakfasted and applied to join MS Ol style on facebook.

    Now going to tackle the middle room of gloom where DD has made such a pigsty of a room which is usually just a quick Swish and swipe.

    That will only leave the Dining room and kitchen utility and cloakroom.

    Then of course theres the 2 bomb sites (our room and the other spare room)
    but I need a month to tackle them.

    Back later have a good day

    Morning all. Hope everyone is feeling tickety boo. Blowing a blinking gale here and hayfever is driving me crazy.
    I've prepped the veggies for dinner and am going to take the twins swimming (hopefully it will wash some of the pollen away!!).

    I was a good girl last night and got 2 hours worth of ironing done so the Iger is now about the size of mount Snowdon :D
    Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j

    Sunshine here at the moment, but feeling very sleepy as DS1 came in at 4am :eek: I'm very tempted to go vacuum his room...

    I've just done the online check-in! Thank you very much :T to Germish for the website for the packing lists.

    Forgot to say fantastically well done to Mudbath and her DD for the run!

    I think I'll go put the chicken in the oven on the timer, and then go to the allotment for some more weeding. I still have a longish list of things to do, including watering round at friend's, potting up the tomatoes in the greenhouse at home, making a chocolate cake for the boys this week, and packing of course!

    Have a lovely Sunday!

    I hope everyone is well :D

    I managed to get a lot done yesterday

    [strike] Open all the windows and put music on[/strike]
    [strike] Sweep hallway, living room and bathroom, mop bathroom[/strike]
    [strike] Vacuum both bedrooms[/strike]
    [strike] Wipe anything that needs it[/strike]
    Tidy away clean washing
    [strike] Change bed covers[/strike]

    I also caught up on the washing up and put a couple of loads on. Today, my plan is to tidy away my crafting things to the proper drawers instead on splattered on my desk and that's it. Well, apart from making a cake and some biscuits later.

    Hi all.

    just to mention that in the News of the World there is a £5 off when you spend £30 in Tesco today. Though that it might be helpful to someone.

    Been to church today as it is my Sisters birthday. My niece made her a birthday card. She is such a lovely little lady.
