glitterfairy · 27/04/2007 15:16

HIya EHM we got to the school gates this morning but she was moaning about itching and a headache and in the end I relented and came home with her. She then ate her packed lunch and said she wanted to go in this afternoon so I said no! Its Friday and I know they do goldentime in the afternoon and cant see the point she may as well rest. She is seeing her dad tomorrow so I would rather she was a bit better.

Have managed to:

Wash up
Washing x2
Hung out x2
Painted my toe nails
Sent loads of emails
Snuggled with dd watching a rubbish film
recycling paper
done some work and admin!
Tidied a very little bit
Had a bath

Back to the list then.

Hello to all.

The haircut and colour are fine. I've gone a bit shorter so that I can manage it but a little longer than it was before so that I feel it is feminine enough. I did a few other jobs in town and feel quite bushed now. I'd better get on and make tea so I'll keep this short.
Done:-
~ colour and cut booked for lunchtime - took from 12.15 to about 2.30!
~ picked up ds' prescription
~ did a bit of food shopping
~ bought some gardening stuff dh needed
To do:-
~ I've a few things to sort out/return. tomorrow
~ ironing tomorrow
~ tidying up tomorrow
~ put away clothes ironed 2 days ago tonight
~ walk the dog tonight
~ take dd to scouts - or ask dh to tonight
~ sort out dh and ds for tomorrow as they will be going away for the w/e tonight

Off to make tea. Enjoy your evening and I'll see you tomorrow!

Good Day Everyone

I have had a mad busy day on top of virtualy no sleep. DD was up until 3am and then up for good at 6am and my eyes hurt I am so tired.

So tonight I am sleeping in the spare room and catching up on sleep and DH (bless him) is on baby duty.

DONE
Cleaned bathroom and painted half a wall (nap time painting sessions)
Cleaned Kitchen including floor
Emptied bin & dishwasher
Hoovered downstairs
Strip all beds/cot and all linen ready to go back on.
Did four loads of washing, dried and ironed
Cleared out fridge
Cleaned Microwave
Did food shopping and put it all away

Then DH came home (early for a change) and we had 5 minutes relax sitting in the garden with ice lollies before DD woke up from nap.

TO DO
Nothing left to do except have a nice tea of salmon, stuffed pasta and salad, maybe a nice glass of wine. Followed by SLEEP

Londonmamma · 27/04/2007 18:15

Hi Tort my youngest is almost ready for bed. Sports day has truly worn him out today, he's very whiney and I've had enough now! By the way, I am getting the stuff sorted out that we were talking about the other night, just had an extremely busy week and I don't know where the time has gone.

tortoise · 27/04/2007 19:07

Awww bless him. No worries about the stuff. No hurry for it.

I am having sneezing fits! Damn hayfever!
