Slatterns Lists Here Now

[minimammoth]

SLATTERNS Yoohoo bring those lists here now!

Right roast is on
and homeworks being done

Have had a crap day, chores wise, been a bit like rabbit in headlights, trying to do stuff, starting several jobs, panicking about another job, so not finishing one, starting another, not finishing that either... and so the day has gone on!!!! AAGGHH. Anyway, DC home now and it's DS's birthday, so tucking into a good spot of burgers (homemade) and chips (homemade!) to celebrate.

Anyway, the good news is he went up a reading level today (Yey) so bugger the list!!! for the moment. Too embarrassed to post it as almost nothing has "DONE" next to it.

Anon - yey for reading step up :)

Plum - another roast rebel, you do know it's not Sunday right?

Wasting - hope you got your washing in, I did before the rain came. Though DS2 was happily pottering about out there for a few minutes before i noticed, oops!

Bloody Hormones it's hell with 'em and its hell without'em. Freaki have you tried some of the supplements that help even them out. Evening primrose, B vits, esp. B6 and omega3s.
Might help.
I can't get my head around list but need one. Here's I what I would like list.

A bloody good holiday (its not gonna happen)
A good nights sleep ( I know you are all nodding)

As reality kicks in, am off to sharpen my pencil.

Freakoid-I felt miserable looking at the manky weather too, better get it checked out though. minimammoth let me know if you manage time travel as I can win next weeks National lottery.

Where I'm at with that list:
tidy house
dust
vacuum
wash floors
wash skirting boards NO
pick beetroot and calabrese
empty garden containers
mow the lawn TOO WET!!!!
feed the fish
write blog
get hair cut
make 2 kilner jars of mincemeat (out of windfalls)
make damson gin (2010 vintage)
clean kitchen
clean bathroom
change UCO bedlinen
family budget for the month

ring my mum
get wrapping paper from WH Smiths
sort for size UCO's tights
buy warm winter tights-all sgustin in local shops try next time I am in Birmingham
usual Mummy things-washing clothing and feeding UCO
make apple pie (windfalls)

I have used smileys for bits done and I have definately got a cold. I am not sure whether I feel too manky to complete list. Definately too manky to do skirting boards

Freak Funily enough (ok bad wording) I am having my first period for 2 and half years and was very depressed yestrerday. i am sure it is to do with bloody hormones. but I feel fine today, well a lot better. Defintley go to the doctors - don't suffer -its vile. GRRRR.
