i have NO KIDS, no cooking to do, nothing to bother me

[FolornHope]

dh is in town
kids being fed by GPs

and all i "Have " to do is some ironing

do you all loathe me?

oh and have a good book on the go

i loathe you . Merry Christmas.

I have 2 kids launching themselves of the furniture - i have washing to put on and ironing to put away - i really want to crack open the Baileys.......

hehe
i might well do meself

I am sorely tempted but as i can foresee an da and e visit i best not!

I am off to my concert in an hour. We have a babysitter booked who will feed and put kids to bed while we go out for a meal. Can't wait.

I hate you, severely.

Well, maybe not but I envy you.

Oh fuck off

I have almost the bloody complete opposite of you at my house. I am demented with boredom and bloody housework.

I have both dc, the whole house to sort and have'nt read more than 3 pages of a book in years.

I am about to brave xmas biscuit making with DD. She is feeling creative and has just made a dress for her barbie out of the chocolate orange wrapper naughty mummy has just scoffed

I join the loathing
have DS toddling about, and a HUGE dinner to cook for 10 people tonight, whilst cleaning the house, doing some laundry (Ironing is out of the question).

On the other hand, managed to do quite a lot: a chocolate-banana-tart is cooling whilst baby grabbing my pants and screaming, turkey tucked in the oven, kitchen cleaned, gravy done, baby fell off sofa and banged his head, baby is calm, a load of pasta with chicken and spinach was cooked and consumed by baby, kitchen has been cleaned again, living room vacuumed, baby tipped over Christmas tree, smashing most of decorations and tree on the way, living room vacuumed again, baby sticking a spoon in dog's ear, got the dogs out of the house, baby in play room.

i have 4 dc's, currently upstairs supposed to be tidying their bedrooms am in living room on my own, have cleaning to do but no motivation, have cooking to do but cant be arsed, beds to change but dont want to while the dc's are up there

I am run under yet still MN

yes i think i better just get of mumsnet and get hoovering or dh will com ein thinkning i have done feck all all day........

well it is either MN or the baileys today for me! I need a sanity break from manic 4yr old and teething baby plus I need MN to research what xmas biscuits to make

shiri you can have a and for doing so well!

i have just tooke a break to put a load of pinks on so now i feel i can waste another half hr

I'm actully freaking out a bit now, nothing is done DH is painting the kids bedrooms

I really need to do alot and I've got a major headache.

The kids are being PITAs and to top it off its DDs 1st birthday tomorrow so I can't just do it all tomorrow.

hatey hate hate.

(not really)

quite envious though......

I have almost finished my tidy/clean up
Then will have some baking to do in a bit (which I enjoy anyway) and then we're done.

Wish I could have a sit down with a Baileys though.......

Right, hoover awaits

Forlorn Hope - I too have naff all to do

ALtho I do have my DCs with me. We have been for a walk in the snow-filled woods, delivered christmas cards around village, come home to hot choc & mulled wine (heavily brandy laden......god bless Nigella and her recipes ), and are now all sat in front of Home Alone.

Cookies, mince pies and muffins are defrosting on the kitchen worktop, DH will cook dinner later.

Oh and as DH is off work, and we were supposed to be in France now, he has developed Bored-itis and cleaned the house from top to bottom this morning
