Hello NUT and one and all!

I'm sitting here trying to eat a quick lunch (is that the time?!) whilst watching the snooker (just started - lovely - might iron whilst watching) and MNing.

I've done a couple more jobs since this morning:-
~ fetch dd from school, take to doctor and return to school
~ same but with ds
~ food shopping - and then put away
~ put washing on line

To do:-
~ I've a few things to sort out/return. Will try to find them to take and do. will do tomorrow when next in town
~ cook joint for tea
~ ironing
~ tidying up
~ put away clothes ironed 2 days ago
~ finish putting away d/w stuff
~ last thing tonight - put the showercap in the shower so I don't wash my hair first thing tomorrow, forgetting my colour and cut booked for lunchtime
~ fetch ds from after school activity
~ walk the dog
~ ring company about the return that they haven't replied to me about.

Right. Must eat lunch now. Then will get ironing after ringing that company. See you later. Will see how much I can get done by 4pm.

ludaloo · 26/04/2007 14:31

Rollon sorry to hear about the U.T.I. - they're horrible. Do you know about cranberry juice and lots of water?

I had sushi last night and am feeling a bit unwell. I'd never had it before and am not sure it agrees with me!

Next jobs: 1)DW 2)general tidy-up

I havent done much today but am planning on having a cleaning spurt when I get home with the kids later.

I have done:

2 loads of washing
hung out to dry
sorting clothes
sorting recycling ready in car to take
bins

Good to see you again Beetrootccio.

luda I have a suggestion for dh's birthday. At the top of town there is a shop (on Bridge Street?) which does hand painting of crockery or somesuch. I've not been there but I've been to somewhere similar a few miles down the road from where I live in the seaside village. I went with dd for her b/d and painted a boat on a mug for dh's b/d. I don't know how expensive they are but you could call in and ask.

Done:-
~ cook joint for tea
~ finish putting away d/w stuff

Evening all, not done alot off my list except my ironing.

Have though got my dd organised for her school trip. Since collecting the kids from school I've been into town with dd to get a waterproof jacket and all her toiletries and other bits and pieces for the trip. Not long got back and put the tea on, washed the lunchboxes and sorted them out again and put the school uniform in for a wash.
