Lol Jas. We believe you.

I am getting nothing done! Not as motivated today.
I will get something done now before making lunch.

Jas · 13/07/2007 12:45

While I typed those two lines he emptied the sugar bowl on the table, and while I hoovered up the sugar, he sat at the top of the stairs and threw all the dds jigsaws down.

I wonder why I feel like I never get anything done?

tortoise · 13/07/2007 12:55

Stairs cleared and hoovered.
My bed is buried under a pile of washing to put away! That can be done later!

I better make lunch now.

Shouldbe Sorry i missed you on MSN. Catch up later hopefully.

EHM the women all did swim the Channel, though they did it in a relay type swim with each of the women spending an hour in the sea. I cried like a baby especially when the older lady got in and did her swim even though her hips were hurting like hell, kind of makes me feel guilty when I moan that my hips hurt, have had problems with them since I was a teenager and I got thrown off a horse onto a big boulder on Bodmin Moor. Should really see a doctor about them as they have got worse in the last year, but am too stubborn to do so!

tortoise · 13/07/2007 14:08

I am not getting much done here! Need to pick DS's up soon but they go to their Dads at 5pm so i can get more done after that. i was hoping to do better today. Thats what happens when i turn the tV and Comp on!
Still no sign of the caterpillar. it could be anywhere.

Have done nothing much else but sit and drink tea and eat buscuits with my friend who came for lunch much the same is planned for this afternoon

tortoise · 13/07/2007 17:29

Afternoon all.
Norman still missing.
DS's have just left. And DD's eating rice crispies for tea! Their favourite choice!

I am going to go upstairs once they have finished and get on with sorting out up there.

Shouldbe Sounds like the perfect way to spend the day.

tortoise · 13/07/2007 19:46

Boys room all tidy and girls room all tidy!

Just mine to do next. And the piles of washing to put away.

DD's are a bit late going to bed though. I better take them up now.
