Managing the mayhem in March - who wants motivation to babystep through the month with us?

[carrotsandcelery]

Starting from March 1st lets babystep our way through the month, throwing in the odd mission.

Sign up here if you want to join in.

We have pointy sticks -> to get you off the sofa and chocolate and stickers as rewards.

Let's end our CHAOS and enjoy our sparkly homes.

LadyAgnes some of us come on more often than others. It is totally fine to just come on now and again and it is not required that you read all our posts before you post yourself. Some days it does go fast. It can take a while to catch up. It is fine just to post your ta das and jump in where we are.

Who'd like a ?

Oooh! Yes please Scout. We have ice cream if anyone would like some. Strawberry or Caramel or both?

Good to know carrots :) Caramel for me please!

And big yes to you too scout although sadly in reality it's a beer, not my fave but does the job.

What's everybody up to this evening? I think I might carry on catching up with a wonderful doc on iPlayer about the tube. It's really interesting and heart warming, plus it reminds me not to moan about my job as I don't have to commute anymore

I think we will be watching a dvd although I may be cleaning the bathroom as the girls are giving each other makeovers just now. Ds has appeared covered in blue something and I am very tempted to put my head in the sand and pretend none of it is happening.

Pup is having a great time chasing the empty ice cream tub round the kitchen floor licking all the leftovers

I'd quite fancy another RL cocktail tonight (would be the third this week ) but am going to do the shopping in a bit so will have to wait until I'm back.

Scout you have had quite a week though so a few wee treats won't hurt you.

I'm off to have a in the bath

We had a good family day, though. MrScout did some work in the morning then said "I'm ignoring S the rest of the day." I think he'll do some more work when I go to the grocery store.

it reminds me of ms hannigan in annie drinking the gin flavoured bathwater!

ta das
ive actually got round to washing up after dinner and putting both the kitchen and front room to order

LA thats an impressive ta da list for a beginner!

and snacks

be back in the morning

hope you all have a good evening!

I know the cherry that you speak of zoo - heavenly. Yum!

My artistic skills are being pushed to the max as the girls want arty makeovers on their faces. Dd has vines and swirls and hearts all over her face flowing from eyeliner. It looks pretty funky actually (until she wants to go out like that when she is 16).

zoo I was multitasking!

Please someone remind me about the tv show nearer the time, we can only set things to record 7 days in advance on the freesat.

Yes - remind me too please.

The girls are in the bath so I am enjoying the peace while it lasts.

Anyone still around?

yep - watching TOTP2 while desparately trying to find some new clothes on Next

Zoo, if it makes you feel any better, I have a DH and I spent my Saturday night at Tesco doing the 10-day plus Easter shop.

Groceries bought and mostly put away. Will think about the washing up in a few minutes.

We've been catching up on recorded Celebrity Apprentice USA.

I am too. I still haven't relaxed yet as the girls have had me up and down like a yo yo and I am starting to get tetchy about it.

What are you looking for bessie? Maybe we can do a mini S&B challenge. I am an expert now of course because I went to a wedding

How was the party BC? Were the dcs with you?

I need EVERYTHING carrots I haven't really bought many clothes since before DDs. I did get some jersey tops from DotP last month, so I do actually have something I am not ashamed to wear outside the house now! I'm going to do my usual trick of ordering a load of stuff so I can try it on at home & then send most of it back!

Oh dear!

I do that bessie but have found Next stuff a bit tricky lately although I do wear their jeans.

Mantaray and John Rocha are usually good for casual tops for me if that is any help. I haven't looked recently though.

I'm afraid I'm not much use in the S&B department, bessie. I live in Toddler Combat Gear. My body has changed so much since I got pregnant (pregnacy, birth, loss of baby weight, loss of stupid amount of weight due to treatment, regain of some of lost weight) I don't even think about clothes. I'm just happy to have a pair of jeans that aren't hanging off my hips and butt.

scout I too would be happy to not have a bob-the-builder-butt hanging out, I end up having a belt so tight it's uncomfortable I do wonder if I am just the wrong shape for jeans?

carrots I ordered £150 worth of stuff from next last month & sent all of it back.

sorry, should rant about this in S&B. BC how was the party?
