Ello all

Morning Flybabes,
Well the mission is done to be honest there is nothing under my sink anyway,the littleones emptied it that often i moved it all .I need to get some cupboard locks as it's a waste of storage.
Looks like DP was busy in the night the carpet is half ripped up ,and he's left empty bitter cans all over.
I'm going to clean fridge out after,expect it'll be the mission tomorrow but i'm doing shopping then so best do it whilst it's almost empty.Shouldn't take long as DP spilt milk in it last week and i made him clean it then.Also need to defrost freezer .
Just laughing at DD1 she's started getting herself dressed recently, she's got her top on inside out and jeans on back to front(she's only 3).I better go and give her some help DD2 has only just got up !

Jelley · 09/11/2006 09:35

Was your dp supposed to be ripping up the carpet squatchette?????

I bet I'm the only person with a chainsaw under their kitchen sink. I will pull it (and all the other stuff) out and clean up. There is no cupboard there, just a space, and I did do it last month but you really can't tell now.

Flamesparrow · 09/11/2006 11:07

I have to ask... WHY do you have a chainsaw? (and if its not a cupboard, can the short ones not get it???)

I have heat... AND hot water... AND a thermostat (novelty there, not had one before...)

Gonna degrime my house!

Jelley · 09/11/2006 11:12

Ooooh a thermostat! Never had one of those.... Do you have a timer on your heating too? I dream of one of them (but now that I'm up at 5.30 daily anyway, I guess I don't need one any more)

Happy dancing for you...

The dds have lived with tools spread all over the house and never had a problem. ds is going to be different I think.
Not a problem atm as I have a gate over the kitchen door (my cooker is so old it has knobs that just let the gas flood out igf you turn them and don't light)

The chainsaw leaks oil so can't go in the tool cupboard, and we have no outside storage The shed wil never get built.

I've done nothing, and ds is asleep. I'm going to go and do my bathroom.

Flamesparrow · 09/11/2006 11:14

My DD wasn't inetesred in anything either... DS is hell

I do have a timer too... dead posh me

Morning ladies,

Dropped DS1 off at school. Been to Sainsbury's, feeling a bit virtuous as I have bought lots of Ecover products. BF DS2 and just quickly going to put shopping away and load breakfast stuff into D/W and if I have time get the washing out of the machine before picking DS1 up from school. Am going into town to get clothes and shoes for the DS's as they are sprouting like beans atm. Then I'm having my hair done. Will be back just in time to do tea and put them to bed.

Hope you all have a good day and see you all tonight.

tinshoes · 09/11/2006 11:50

Hi all, been swimming with dd and then to the library. She is now watching dvd but i have put all the swim stuff in the wash and plan to make lunch in a bit.

hope you're all having a good day...

squatchette · 09/11/2006 11:52

at Jelly
Yes he was supposed to be ripping the carpet up should have made that more clear, it was the empty tins i was annoyed about.
Having a motivation problem this morning think i'll go and read some flylady emails as haven't done for about a month i just come here instead!

asleep · 09/11/2006 11:53

asleep · 09/11/2006 11:53

budget for this week

Flamesparrow · 09/11/2006 12:04

Just found DD trying to clean the loo .

Boiler is lots smaller than the last one so I have kitchen space!!! (and no, it still doesn't mean I can justify a breadmachine )

back from mother and toddler group..now I remember why I stopped going! I pay £2 to sit on my jack jones whilst ds scoots about on a tractor and dd2 squeals constantly at a child who keeps following her and pulling her hood
She got pushed off a chair by the same child...
mother totally not bothered!!!!!!!!!

Well I have done the mission...and made lunch. dd2 no asleep on my knee so there is a good excuse to sit for a while!!!!

Hi all. Just popping in before friend gets here!
Looks fairly tidy in here and kitchen.
I'm sure it won't stay tidy for long once they all get toys out.

Quootiepie · 09/11/2006 13:13

Afternoon - getting TONS done today. DH is clearing our above stairs (!) storage which had all the old curtains in from when we pulled them down in the 1st week we moved in , we're clearing EVERYWHERE - finally! Decorating front room again tomorrow aswell its all go!

pippah · 09/11/2006 15:31

Oh dear. I am feeling very very tired today. I think it's because I've remembered exactly how pregnant I am! Not really done anything except get my hair cut and do some shopping. Today is supposed to be my admin day. And I should do the mission too. Motivation, where are you?

Flamesparrow · 09/11/2006 15:41

Got hardly anything done... DS has another cold and is screaming his heart out if I move.

tortoise · 09/11/2006 15:47

Had a great afternoon. Definatly want to do that more often! They all spent most of the time in the garden or on the trampoline. My friend loved the trampoline.I think we had more fun on it than the kids.
SW due to come here about 4pm. Heard from solicitor as it was court today to say final hearing dates. Im really not happy about it. Dates set to end on the 20th APRIL! It feels so far away. I'm pushing for christmas day at the moment.XP1 offered christmas eve until 11am christmas day. Ive said i want all day as he got it last year!
