Hi stacey hope you had a nice holiday? (ps did you get the osbourne book bag?)

SimplySparkling · 04/06/2007 15:24

Ah, right EHM. I hope you're feeling better soon. Oh, and shouldbe can pass on to you my e-mail address if you want it anytime. Is that okay with you shouldbe?

Hello to everyone.

I'm not doing very well. I'm going to ring dd when 3.30pm comes to ask her to catch the bus home and we'll go into town for 5pm not at 3.30pm. I really can't spare the time to tootle around town when I still haven't packed nor sorted out the spare room. Help!

Done:-
~ keep tackling kitchen and laundry stuff nearly there
~ find my stuff in the ironing pile ready to iron and pack

To do:-
~ take dd to optician appt
~ finish unpacking and put stuff away
~ post back the towel I accidentally brought back from the cottage
~ hoover downstairs and maybe upstairs
~ iron and pack everything I need to go away tomorrow morning
~ e-mail Scouts Skip
~ post birthday card
~ sort out arrangements for after school stuff later this week when I'm away

EHM · 04/06/2007 15:29

simplys thats so kind thanks. Not sure if this helps why don't yoy pack & leave the spare room & it can wait until you get back?

Hi everybody am abit late than I expected to be but we have just been on a mammoth shopping trip, the chest freezer, the fridge freezer and all the cupboards are now full to the brim. All for a £140 which we are impressed with that will now last us for at least 2 months.

My done list for today:

Wash up and dry up done
hang the washing that I put on at 6.45 this morning done
hoover and sweep floors not done am going to do in a minute
clean the kitchen fully, its a bit of a mess doing after the hoovering
clean the bathrooms done
need to get shopping at some point today done and all put away
get dressed, kids are all dressed. done

Have had a pretty good day up to now and at least we have food in now. Will be back later with the rest of my done list.

EHM · 04/06/2007 15:41

aufish very impressed with you shopping. any tips?

EHM · 04/06/2007 15:43

with your shopping, sorry

Aufish · 04/06/2007 15:54

We go to loads of different shops, like farm foods, Asda, Aldi and Iceland, we get our fresh meat and fruit from Asda as I'm fussy, the other stuff like the frozen stuff comes from Farm Foods and Iceland and I will only buy certain brands as I will not eat anything that is mashed up meat, got seriously put off by Jamie's dinners. We also get the kids their treats and biscuits from Farm Foods as buscuits are usually 5 packs for £1 so is a bargin for 4 kids who eat us out of house and home! We like to eat as healthy as we can manage and have plenty of homemade foods as I don't like the idea of filling them fully of processed foods.

shouldbe · 04/06/2007 16:30

simply I've emailed you back I loved the clip you sent, thank you I hope everything comes toether for you so you can enjoy your time away
EHM I'll forward simply's email address soon
Aufish great shopping! I need to do a supermarket shop later this eve/tomorrow/soon before we all starve!

My house is still a tip but I'm putting everything off till tomorrow when I have 3 1/2 hrs to myself to get back on track a little (as long as I can stay off here ) I have put some washing in the machine and put away my washing up but that's pretty much it and now I frankly can't be bothered I'm going to aim to get everything that's downstairs that should be upstairs put in the correct rooms at least by 5pm.......

EHM I had to smile when I read your post. Thanks for the smile, I needed it. MIL is coming to look after the children and she'll be sleeping there! You can just about get in the door and walk to the window atm. The bed isn't visible and neither is half the floor! Off to the optician with dd.

Thanks shouldbe.

Aufish · 04/06/2007 16:55

simplysparkling congrats on the tip of the day !!!

EHM · 04/06/2007 17:59

aufish thanks for the tips. We don't have a Farm Foods, used to shop there when we live in Scotland. Although we do have an iceland, and they home deliver shopping. So I can go in do shop & then they will deliver. My sister has justed moved to Manchester & she said Asda is great. Don;t have one close by, but used to shop there a lot in Scotland too.
simplyS hope you get room sorted & you get to enjoy your time away.if you mil is like my mil she will move the bloody room about anyway
yadd thanks, sorry to hear about your paint splatted plants.

Rolling down a big hill sideways It was soooo fun .

Lunches are made though and DC all in bed.

Have forgotten whats been said on here today now! But i don't remember any poorlies or terrible days.
