I was hoping to get a couple they haven't seen or just bung them in front of anything Jonny Depp.. lol..

Afternoon all (just clicked over to noon...) I'm shattered DD's bed stripped and remade, breakfast done and Ex taken her out to see Kung Fu Panda and lunch at McDonalds

My list for today is :

• Dishes
• Tea - chicken portions with new potatoes & veg, followed by stewed fruit (fruitbowl contents as it was all on the turn! ) with custard.
• OU studying
• Asda shop - needs to be done by 5pm so I think I'm going to do that now, once I've double checked whats in.

Best get a move on. Will do a batch of dishes and then a cupboard check. :wave:

Eerm I have no idea what girls watch :rotfl: maybe someone with pinks might have an idea. At that age I liked musicals like Grease, Fame etc

Choccy biscuit would be lovely to go in my cheese sandwich

Panic over, DS2 had put the box back which he'd dropped, wonders will never cease! Suppose I should get a wriggle on really, lots to do and can't be fluffed! Maybe I should put some trousers on instead of my PJ bottoms before I go wandering round the garden.

hubby finished his run.. 1 hour 42 minutes apparently and came a few places ahead of the new PE teacher at the school the oldest girl attends.. who is also about 10 years younger than hubby.. I'll go put the life insurance policy away then lol.. He is just waiting for my mother to go get him and he'll be back.

I've just bombarded the children with instructions without coming up for air lol.. ended with.. and get your socks and shoes on and bug off outside to play like proper children!

Just got changed ready to go, but got a text to call it off, it seems mother and godson are sick!

Wine and lego put away till another day, flowers in vase.

Now got to think of some thing else to do today

Thanks to all earlier posters for their thoughts and best wishes.

pigpen

ooh that is sad kaz.. I hope they are feeling better soon so you can go round.. hopefully they'll not be cooking pasta next time!

Next 2 lots of laundry in.. first 2 lots hung out!

Mother gone to collect hubby... the hubby that could have had another couple of hundred quids in sponsorship had he given me the form.. idiot...

Next round of tasks..

sweep the kicthen.. there are sugar puffs everywhere and they are driving me crazy sticking to my feet!
parcel ebay things.. all 3.. I have another bunch ending in 3 hours.. £44 so far... including a pair of boots I've had ages.. but they are finally leaving me! WOOHOO!!!

I've set most of this months bills to come out of the account tomorrow so I'll just have 5 to sort out myself.. but the important ones are covered.. the student loan is the next beastly bill to be paid off.. there is £600 left!.. it was £8000 2 years ago!!!

Kazmeister Have sent you PM re sausage and baked bean casserole.

Have not got to bed yet. Nipped onto street and forgot there was a street fair today. Then met a friend I hadnt seen for ages so we stood for about an hour talking.

Catch you all later.

Here's my list for next week, Monday and Tuesday. I've got a couple of hours paid work and school runs, cooking and caring for toddler, but as well as that I intend to
1. Fully sort all the laundry, into the new furniture and away.
2.Do 2 more loads including bed linen.
3. hoover through downstairs. (difficult with toddler who follows it around going hoowa! hoowa!)
4. Clean bathroom and downstairs loo
5. Clean kitchen including floor

pheeeewww! Will let you know how I get on. Gotta go, a birthday party to take DD2 to.

pig pen - my 12 year old likes highschool musical 1 and 2 but they've probably seen that. How about Music and Lyrics (Hugh Grant) Life Size, Hairspray, The Nanny Diaries or National Treasure (the old one)

kazwookie, sorry to hear that, hopefully you will be able to see them soon, I have a friend who is a worse cook than me (yes I thought that was impossible too) so when I visit I offer to cook/make a buffet type thing and take it with me saves gagging.
Sinderella have you thought of getting him his own? Might help you a bit if he can play with his own instead of being behind you.
pigpen you're working wonders on those debts! Well done!
boddy hope you manage to get some sleep with the street fair going on.

Done the front lawn. I think I hate that one more than the huge backgarden as it's on a slope, pushing the mower up and downs a right pain, backs going flippy now. Did the dog mess clearing inc one off someone elses dog on the path outside my house, I hate people who don't clean up after their dogs! I've got DS2 filling Ikea bags of clean/dry laundry to take upstairs, he'll cart them up there hopefully, he's as strong as a bull but as stubborn as one too sometimes when it comes to helping, all the 10p jobs will cost me a fortune as there is about 4 bags worth dumped in the conservatory so worth it, we negotiated 10p a bag, saves my back a little bit. Now I'll just have to sort/fold/put away that lot. Maybe I shouldn't have confessed how much was waiting to be put away

Oh and please stop going on about how nice things cooked in a Remoska are because I am trying to resist buying one! There just isn't room in the kitchen

Next mission, find Wii controllers, said DS2 could play on it and I have no idea where I have put the controllers......

tiamai_d

I HATE Moonsand!!!!

Hmm-hmm...anyway... Pigpen, Wii is great!! Favourites here (and with everyone I know are) are Link archery training (you get a gun thing), Big Brain Academy, wii sport and wii play, Super Mario Galaxy. Though my boys are younger os they like carttony ones. Sonic and teh secret rings is UTTER CRAP, I don't know anyone who has managed to get past the first level! And wii fit is awesome!

Tesco man should be here before 3, I have S&S kitchen, Cleaned up moonsand :mad: even with DH 'looking after them' they managed to wreck the place.... he is really really pi**ing me off with his lazyness and ar*seholitis ATM. And he is off work today also. :mad:

OK off to see what DS2 want to show me.
