[shouldbe]

mission

gfToo true, I never allow much time for me & sometimes feel guilty when I do. Still haven't had that Pedicure I had booked a few weeks, which was cancelled as Ellie had Chickenpox.
simplyS As it's Jelley I'll forgive her

mummy2ashton Hello, orange juice..good luck.

I MUST really go now. Ellie is flinging things at me from her highchair in frustration

Greetings and felicitations fellow flyers !

Have a headache as its probably best not to do a detox day, then decide to drink 3 glasses of wine

tort sorry my dc's are too little for 7yr old trews

shouldbe i get legcramps when i'm hungover isn't it due to a deficiency in salts ? Sure i've heard an isotonic drink helps

ludaloo sunflowers are they rescuable ? Mine are only about an inch high and i'm already quite fond of them [sad hippy emoticon]

dabbles see you soon !

No to do list today am going to do my done bragging list and try to feel vaguely smug

done brag brag

1 load washing
folded up clean towels
load/unload d/washer
watered back garden
sprayed roses (die aphids die !..[non hippy emoticon] )
bins out
cleaned vegetable rack/bags

Have a good day all

.....still going with the ironing...getting bored of it now - will only just be done before I have to collect ds in an hour...At least the other jobs on my list are mostly to do outside so he and I can do them together

i REALLY SHOULD DO THE TOE NAILS TOO

Oops...

hello everyone haven't been here in ages hope you are all well and by the sounds of it very busy.

todo:
hang washing out
anther load on
ironing.

my car has just been collected to be repaired and we have a 2 door courtesy car with tiny boot for a week it will be fun.

d/d 3 says mummy we are rich because we have a new car. strange thing to say!! well it is shiny and clean. atleast. now to struggle getting car seats in.

to do also
clean car seats and leave out in sunshine to dry. best get off computer and get started.

shouldbe Outside jobs with ds sounds great. As ds and dd are both in secondary school, I do the same as you but with the dog! She loves being outside doing bits and pieces so long as you throw the ball for her to run after reguarly.

gf You're right, it is important to do things for yourself, too. It needn't be expensive - maybe a bubbble bath. I've taken a bit of time this morning to dry my hair differently to see if I'd like to try it curly again. On the w/e dd straightened it for me. Neither are right so I think I'm going to have to go back to having it cut shorter again. I have a fright at how much a full head of hightlights and a cut cost even though we can afford it and I've got a christening and a big work related event coming up in the next 2 mths. No getting away from it, though, it needs a cut. I'll ring for an appointment.

The FLY threads are my fave part of MN, too. I flick through the active convos but I spend most of the little time I spend on MN on these threads. I feel that I'm amongst friends and the house is looking better for it, too. I'm going to do some more and then post a done list at lunchtime.

Ironing done Kids clothes are put away, just mine and dh's to do. Shouldbe just enough time before the pre-school pick-up to get them put away and have a cup of tea (if i make the tea now and leave it to cool while putting laundry away!)...I'm shattered, really tired and my leg is still aching Will have lunch with ds once he's home then get out in the garden for some fresh air and sun

shoulbe I've just emailed you.x

yaddah LOL at the non hippy emoticon!

Have now done some pilates and folded up washing to put away. Phoned my friend whose husband has left her and chatted for an hour. Apparently he has told her that he does still like her a bit but that if they want to continue he has to be able to do as he likes!

Am off to read now sort of for work and some for me. Take care everyone.

Ironing pile nearly done. Kitchen is untouched but will be done. Watching this Morning and making my way through the pile and its getting smaller!

OK so I didn't manage to put mine and dh's ironed clothes away - I made a cuppa and sat in the garden for 20mins instead
Off on my bike to collect ds now

Hi all

Mummy2ashton I hope your date goes well tonight

I cleaned my bath before I read today's mission so and because I would rather drink the bath water than clean the bath whilst I am in it I am starting to wonder whether half of Kelly's house is immaculately clean and the other half is dirty and worn out from where she has used the wrong thing to do the cleaning.

DS is clingy today so even though it is my only day to do stuff, I am not able to get much done.

Done so far
Been to library
Taken washing to laundrette for service wash (our machine will be fixed on Monday)
Cleaned bathroom including mopped floor with mop
Vacuumed bedroom
Sorted washing

Still to do
Beds
Tidy sitting room
Tidy kitchen
Vacuum downstairs
Clean high chair
Feed cat

nut

Hello again to all.

Ooops, I haven't crossed much off my list. I have done lots of stuff, though, including 3 loads of washing which is now on the line. I've also cleaned the bottom row of kitchen cabinets and the table legs with the microfibre cloth and then sprayed them with the wood restorer spray. They now look really really clean. Next I'm going to mop the floor. Back later with a proper done list.

Hi all.
Will catch up on the thread later but am rather excited about seeing the boys after school with xp1 to tell them the outcome from court! Got to meet them at 3.30. Only an hour and a half to go!

shouldbeSorry to hear about your cramp. Its horrible isnj't.And it hurts for the rest of the day.

I have just hung 2 loads of washing out. Inc DS's bed sheets. Please remind me i need to put clean ones on before tomorrow night!

Have also cleared the back door of plastic bottles. They had really piled up. Me and DD2 took them to the bottle bank while DD1 was at pre-school. I filled the buggy basket,2 very large bags and a wheely bin liner with bottles!! Managed to hang the big bags on the buggy and carry the black bag whilst pushing DD2 in the buggy! So glad ive done it at last!

1 hour to go.

Rolloneaster My Ds's are coming home after nearly 2 yrs of living with their Dad. Court finally decided they should be back with me.They will be home tomorrow.Xp1 will have contact 3 times a week with 2 overnights.(same as i had)
