Do you have a real timer??!!

tortoise · 11/08/2006 10:06

I want a timer.
I used to have a cheap ringing one but it broke and wasn't very accurate!

shazronnie · 11/08/2006 10:07

no I bought it in morrissons! But I might make some wings to stick on the back of it!

tortoise · 11/08/2006 10:09

My front room floor is now covered in play food!
How am i suppose to keep it tidy!!

domestickler · 11/08/2006 10:10

my organised mum calender just arrived, can't wait to fill it in and start taking notice of it lol

domestickler · 11/08/2006 10:17

hmmmm should have maybe put something more educational on before taking photos or even turned it off!! But then how would I get my jobs done if I had to interact with the children ;)

coggy · 11/08/2006 10:18

Grrrrrrr.....Trinity....

coggy · 11/08/2006 10:42

No Quootiepie yet today?

tortoise · 11/08/2006 10:52

Thats one half of the floor scrubbed.And i did it on hands and knees with a cloth!
Once thats dry I can move the bits back and do the other half!
Yes where is Q?

mummy2ashton · 11/08/2006 11:06

which is the best, the uk emails or the us ones? i think i have the us ones as they always come through at funny times (think they are five hours behind us or something)

should i get the uk ones? is there a link?

by the way, i got dressed and washed first thing when i got up this morning, as instructed! normally i mouch about in my pjs for at least an hour!

shazronnie · 11/08/2006 11:12

I did it! I made wings for my morrissons timer and did 15mins in my newly designated hotspot, the kids toy box/pile in the front room.

Domestickler you are way too good for me! I am very impressed.

(going to see if the dcs have messed up the hotspot again yet)

shazronnie · 11/08/2006 11:13

toys still in box but now I have to post 50 wet wipes back into the packet.

tortoise · 11/08/2006 11:16

Well done mummy2ashton.
LOL @ wings on the timer!
2nd half of kitchen floor has been done.
Oh mine have done that with the wipes before

Quootiepie · 11/08/2006 12:55

Calm down dears!!! Im here! Had a rough/late night last night so lay in bed a while this morning. BUT, when DS stopped feeding, I got showered straight away, dressed, did the washing up and started to soak my sink again... then DS wanted attention so im on a break. Just need to re-shine sink and hot my hotspot (the clutter around this comp and chair!) Its nice to be thought of

Good to see you Q.
Ive just done my exercise for the day.Have just walked to the shops with dd1 in the buggy and dd2 in the backpack! Probably about a 2 mile trip!

coggy · 11/08/2006 13:25

We were worried that your wings may have stopped flapping Quootie!!!

Sounds like you have more than made up for a later start!!!!!

PSML at your timer's wings shazronnie!!!!

I am off this afternoon to but myself a special timer too...............no wings on mine tho.....

Quootiepie · 11/08/2006 13:29

OP posts:
coggy · 11/08/2006 13:32

Don't worry about it...I'm sure you can find 15 mins later on!!!
Enjoy the peace and quiet!!!

coggy · 11/08/2006 13:37
