squeaky wear dark glasses .. it dims the mess and you can't see the dirt so easily !

Welcome to fly !

glassslipper · 18/04/2007 10:44

yay.....i'll go put the kettle on

squeakybub. I have a 4mth old so havent done much housework for ages. I am feeling energised by the fact that other DD (3) is back at preschool.

we'll help motivate you.

you will notice i rarely write a to do list. just a 'have done' list. that way i cant feel bad if something gets missed

Welcome Squeaky
Floating I have the same problem with my dd - she's so attached to all her bits and pieces..I do wonder about sneaking a few out at a time though. She has a birthday coming up so really need to clear some of the old things before any new arrive!

Flamesparrow · 18/04/2007 10:57

Done a load to the shop... now going to wash a cup.

For hot chocolate

shouldbe · 18/04/2007 10:58

Have heard from tort, nothing much to report yet though - lots of chatting between parties in side rooms but still no news on what her xp1 is going to do....will keep you posted....

Morning All

Gosh its busy this morning.
I got up a bit earlier to WALK the kids to school today. It was a nice walk actually and I feel a lot better for it.

Hello to the new people {{BIG WAVE}}

I have put a load of washing on, and cleared breakfast stuff away but thats about it so far. My friends car wouldn't start this morning, so I am going to give her a lift home after picking DS up (may have to stay for a chat and a drink )
I really have to go to the shop today too.

Will catch you all later, when I get back

GOOD LUCK TODAY TORT I'm thinking of you
