double jobs for you!! .. you can do last weeks list again too.. and I don't care if you've already done it!! lol
I'll bore you with pics tomorrow.. I need drugs and my bed.. I have twisted my ankle riding an imaginary bike.. and it is KILLING me.. and my RSI is playing up something chronic.. I've broken a nail and haven't eaten anything decent since Monday!!
My new microwave has arrived.. very tiny but perfectly formed.... and the toaster is being bundled up in its box and being posted to goodness knows where.. sussex I think.. I'll have to check.
I ordered some black jeans a few weeks ago.. they arrived yesterday morning.. and are white!.. hmmm.. not much difference!!
The house is destroyed.. all of it.. and the laundry hung out yesterday morning it still out there.. they have done nothing but trash the place while I've been out.. it totally pee's me off... noone has even been in until 3:30 today!!
SENCO conference in the morning.. IF I can walk!! lol.. DS2's prizegiving in the afternoon.. and DS1's certificate presentation in the evening.. to which I am sending the hubby.. it is at 6:30 so a bit difficult for me with the brood to put to bed.
DS3 started swimming lessons today and apprently didn't scream like a big sissy when he went in the water.. he hasn't got his face wet yet but wants to take his goggles tomorrow.. he wrote himself a note for us to sign.
'we agree 'DS3' can wear his gogls for swimin. Sind by..... '
I told hubby he had to sign it for him before he went to bed lol... amused me no end!

The film was great and being on my own I walked tall and proud and sat right in the middle.
It was quite nice to go on my own actually, might do that again!

not a lot to say except I loved SitC too and I hated it on telly.
Had a go on my Wii Fit tonight as stated on my list, must get into the habit of doing it more often. Anyway the good news is my BMI has gone from the Obese range down into the Overweight range :j so I am quite pleased.
As you all know I've tried this that and the next thing to shift the baby weight, well something has clicked in my brain over the last few weeks and I have been doing Weightwatchers properly, and have lost about 6 lbs in the last 5 weeks or something.
pigpen glad you mentioned black jeans, you reminded me that I must go to Asda or something tomorrow and try and get some decent black trousers. Going to this Abba tribute thing and have a sequinny black top to wear but need some trews to go with it, want to look a bit smart and disco-y :TJan GC: £202.65/£450 (as of 4-1-12)

The tooth fairy was too busy last night to visit DS1 and take away his tooth! :eek:
So, letter written, crumpled up and stained with tea/coffee to look authentic, used my hair dryer to dry it and the hair dryer went... !!!!!!!!!
And my hair is wet. Cue scary squid monster tomorrow morning! :rotfl:
Dishes all done, bed still not changed.... uhm....will do it in a mo...0 -
im not a happy bunny today i finished all my cleaning up to date then decide to take my dd to feed the ducks for an hour, on my return i notice 2 fire engines sitting up our road, then as i get closer i find out that next door had lit a bonfire in their garden and it had caught the shed alight, and my fence but the worse part is my kitchen looks like it was on fire its filled with soot and my house absolutely stinks so now ive got to do it all again how annoying and also the fire brigade had the cheeck to give ME a fire safety leaflet
sorry if it sound selfish but after all that hard work its sooooo frustrating
anyway back to day 1 again wish me luck
(or could this be a sign that my house just doesnt want to be clean)

Phew I escaped detention by not saying that I was a Bobbing Bobcat but whilst on the website I went on to do the Brian Sex Questionnaire (no Tia it is not something for you
) anyway I now know why I am so cr*p around the house - my brain was more male than female :rotfl:
Have done some decluttering but cleaning ground to halt when I got an e-mail from OH in the early hours of Tuesday saying he won't be back this Thursday but next Tuesday at the earliest. Decided it was better to concentrate on work work until the weekend.
Bonsi - keep strong and good luck with the meeting later in the week
Lil_me - hope you got the assignment finished and well done to your DS2
