Hello ladies

I have done nothing yet!!
Woke up quite late, had a bath and bathed the kids, went to a friends for lunch....
Farted about with the fire!

I will get cracking now!

EHM I had to re read your post earlier...I thought you were getting your ELBOWS waxed!

I actually have a mat, and a mat around the bottom of the loo....its mainly to hide a big bleach streak that was there when we moved in.

TTFN xx

Hi tort,stacey & laloop

shouldbedoingthehousework · 13/02/2007 16:28

Hello

Finally, I get a chance to come onto the computer!

Took the dc's out for a bike ride this morning then came home and they played in the garden for a while - and got very muddy so I was forced into doing some laundry
Had lunch then we watched a dvd.
Then turfed them back out in the garden (resulting in more washing!) while I sorted some bits and pieces for some friends who are expecting a baby next month.
I'm now cooking supper - Chicken and Leek pie (always a success for me tort )

Bit of a lazy day FLY-wise but can't see much point in trying to do a lot this week!

EllieHsMum · 13/02/2007 16:46

Shouldbe if you are still here I've just sent you an email

ludaloo · 13/02/2007 16:55

hello

Lol EHM I couldn't imagine anyone to have hairy elbows!!

shouldbe sounds like you have had a good day

I have finally managed to get into the bathroom this week!!!

I have a sparkling loo!! (remember nothing says I love You like a nice clean loo!...do you think Dh will accept that as a valentines gift!?? )

My sink is white again...not a greyish cream

My bath is much better...its enamel and a pain in the butt to clean...

Right well dinner is on...must hoover the house then, custard cream city in the kids bedrooms
