[BlackCatTryingToFly]

Hi all, Welcome to the new thread.

Oiii!,*Carrots, bessie, Zoo, Scout, Dlamis, and anyone I've missed - Over here!!!

[Brew] anyone?

I'm going to get started now. Will pop back in after 2.00.

Dh can't cope with them at all. He watched one that had my friend's cousin in it but other than that I don't put him through it. He goes off to do stuff during what he calls gory midwives (call the midwife) and I watch OBEM on on demand although have learnt it is cheaper to tape it as we have a limit on our downloads.

I think dh does understand why I blubber but doesn't want to go there himself.

HELP! How do I get ds to stop talking - just for 5 mins? Then I can chat again. Just 5 mins...

masking tape across the chops?!

blackcat you back yet?

i used my 15mins to head under the kids bed (and yet again found enough washing for a whole load despite laundry baskets being used

Done 1 x washing up.

DS is playing out, but I can't see where. If I don't see him soon I will be going looking. He is on his scooter so could be anywhere in the local area.

hope hes come back now blackcat

want have another spurt at 3.30?

I have spotted him. He's playing just off our street at a nearby street. He is with friends so as long as he is careful crossing the road he will be fine.

I'm going to have another go at 2.30. I am so behind I need to keep chipping away at it.

ok.im in

I need to come back at 2.50 as dd has just done a stinky present!.

Ds and I have trashed the kitchen and then I have had 3 more phone calls so no chance to clear it up. We are off out to Ds's drum lesson and then the vets so won't be checking in for a while. Hopefully the drumming will burn off some of ds's mania though. FX.

Dd is having a friend to sleep over tonight (she is going to be sooooo tired) so romantic evening seems to have gone out the window for dh and I. It was a long shot anyway

BC and Zoo Go Girls! You are both on fire! Well done!

Hi Carrots have fun at ds drum lesson.

I did the rest of the drying up. Now stopped with a mars bar to get a bit more energy!

It will take me a few more attempts to get the kitchen sorted (it is quite big!)

DS is still playing out. I had better check where he is. He seems fairly sensible and has never strayed too far yet so FX.

romantic evening carrots whats one of those

nice one blackcat

i washed floor.folded up some dry washing and hung up the 3rd load to dry

i am going to make the beds and make dp favourite banana cake
