Morning all

Welcome to all new FLYers and returnees

I'm sorry I keep starting the threads and then not coming back, I have been reading them but seem to be very busy at the momenyt. I have another busy day today, including helping a Rainbows and Brownies this evening, so will not be around much again.

EHM I really hope Ellie gets better soon. She has definitely had more than her share of illness recently.

Yaddayah your lists alwayys make me smile

simply Thanks for mentioning cats. DP is allergic, but none of the rest of us are, and I'm sure it won't cause a problem. (Have you got the cheque yet? It really was in the post!

Back in a bit....

I'm going to start my day with a list today...

15 mins in dds room
baking
shopping (menu plan and weekly shop has not happened this week and I'm really suffering for it)
wash up
washing x 2 1st load in
get dressed
get ds dressed
wake dds and get ready for school
put out recycling
find waterproof bag so I can put 1/2 used bag of cement which is currently in my kitchen, out in the garden
take tent back to tescos for refund
brownies and rainbows
hamster
fish tank
hoover




Some of this will definitely get done, but some is a reminder to do it eventually.

Hello

SS sorry...didn't see your post until now, I emailed you to give you a nudge This week is fine. Tomorrow would be easier as Ds doesn't have nursery. We could come over about 10ish? (before lunch)Afternoons aren't so easy as I have to get DD1 from school. Is that ok? Oh and neither Ds or DD2 are allergic....thanks for asking DD2 doesn't like dogs though...they make her squeal! You'll have to email me if thats ok with directions

Didn't get a chance to post yesterday. Had to go into town to bank, and various places. A friend came round in the afternoon.

I have just the normal things to do today and I'm looking after my friends DD2 this afternoon for a couple of hours.

Must do Fish Tank too.....

Good evening everybody didn't actually get on with alot today as I ended up in town trying to find some decent cushion covers and now not long home from Tescos.

My done list:
change girls beds not done will do tomorrow
hoover done
sweep done
wash up and dry up done
washing x 2 not done
drying not done
ironing will be doing whilst watching Anthea
take recycling to the dump not done
get some new cushion covers, the zip broke on one yesterday, but want matching! done
general tidy up done
sort out the SORN document for our baby car, I love it but its too small for us all and DP doesn't want to sell it. done
sort the juice bottles done

We have just gone and got a really good bin that has recycling sections in it already so will hopefully make it easier, am feeling cold and tired but my ironing pile is definitely calling me tonight and I don't want to disappoint Anthea! I usually stand there ironing calling her a smug so and so but enjoy it all and it makes the ironing go much quicker. Have a good evening all and I will get on with the other things off my list tomorrow as I'm at home all day.
