welcome Emzickletodoitallagainsoon

we are of course a delightful bunch who vary from those with a compulsion to do housework and just want to brag and those who loathe housework and need several kicks up the backside to get anything done

see here and start with babysteps

Tea is cooking at last.
I have phoned child benifit to sort out claim for DS's. And also Child tx credits for the same reason! Tax credits can't do anything until the day they come home! Have to have it all sorted soon or i will have a big struggle feeding them daily on my money. xp1 has said he will give me the CB he is paid at the moment until my claim is done and payments to him stop. So complicated!! But exciting!

Don't suppose anyone has any grey boys school trousers in age 7-8 they want to sell/give away? All ds2's are too small and xp hasn't bought bigger ones for him!

Cor Blimey...Emzickle That's a mouthful!

Hello to all the new people. Floating you are putting me to shame...

Tort OOOOOOHHHHHH I'd be Bursting to tell the boys....I'm dead pleased for you, you've gone through so much to get here Tomorrow will come soon enough, then Friday is only the next day

Well I managed to:

~Clean the bathroom
~S&S downstairs loo
~Make biscuits (and eat them all )
~Walk to get DD1...she had a rehursal after school, so waited for her. She is a Flower Fairy for the Eisteddfod in May, and because she is the littlest of all the girls, she gets the main part, which she has to do on her own (she was very upset about this until she was told she gets a present for doing it...which soon swung her round )
~Made Dinner

Haven't hoovered yet today, so must go and do that...and packed lunches for tommorrow.

ludaloo · 18/04/2007 18:57

EHM My favorite FLY LADY saying is....Nothing says I love you like a clean toilet bowl while you are ill with bugs!!!

I have read that I am sure.... I'll remind myself of that next time I'm spewing

ludaloo · 18/04/2007 18:59

tort no trousers that size here...put a "wanted" thread up I'm sure someone will have some.

shouldbe · 18/04/2007 19:02

We're back from Rainbows Ds and I went and had a play at the park while dd was there - something I wouldn't have contemplated a couple of months ago
Managed to get the bits done in the front garden and will try to find the time for the back tomorrow.

Have a good eve all

tortoise · 18/04/2007 19:08

Thanks luda. Thought would check here 1st.
DD's are in bed.
Whole place is a mess and im too knackered to do anything. Will try and do a bit before bed.

BabiesEverywhere · 18/04/2007 19:21

I finished my ironing....repeat..There is NO ironing pile in THIS house [smug emoticon]

Jelley · 18/04/2007 19:27

There is NO ironing pile in this house either, but that is because I don't iron

I've definitely read the one about the toilet bowl with your head down it, too Luda!
