Good morning all

Special thoughts for EHM this morning

We are off to the doctors ion a moment for my blood tests and the boys development checks.

Then off to playgroup, back for lunch and DS1's first day at preschool

DH is getting his car collected, digging out for the new patio and getting the cattle trailer delivered for all the mud.

Morning routine is done. I need to do the ironing whilst DS2 is napping after lunch and will do the mission then.

Oooh I need to start planning holiday activities, too I think.
Have a restful day GO as you have the chance today.

Ruby -If you were my landlord, I'd be fine with you coming while I was out as long as I knew when (and why) you would be there.

sleepycat - you sound very cheery this morning. I am not like that with no sleep!

Still haven't hung out the washing, but am showered and fed, and have booked the dentist for next week.

TheTortoiseandtheEasterbunny · 17/03/2008 10:35

Morning.
EHM Lots of positive thoughts from me for the little frosties.
TMH Hope you appointments go well.

I really have to clean the bathrooom. It is dirty and smells in there. Partly from all the washing that has been hanging around waiting to be washed. Catching up on it slowly. Costing a fortune in elec to dry it all. Have put a load of towels on the line in the sun though.

DD's have a few hours contact with their dad after school. Hope to get home quick and take the boys on a little bike ride.

That all means diddly squit to me RR! I can't picture the room sizes at all.

Grouchyoscar · 17/03/2008 10:42

RR My downstairs rooms are 13'6" square and TBH I wouldn't want them any smaller. Then again, we have expanded to fit the house IYKWIM

Bedroom 3 sounds like a closet tbh

The bedrooms do seem small. A bed, a wardrobe and a chest of drawers and they'd be full

Ludaloo · 17/03/2008 10:48

Ruby the rooms do seem quite small.

The rest of it sounds like our house!!

I would say it depends on how big the family is and how much they need a house.
We first moved into a very small house, but only had one child.
3 children on, we had to move! But the first house served its purpose.

Ludaloo · 17/03/2008 10:49

saying that, our smallest bedroom fits a bed and a wardrobe and a small set of drawers and that is all you can get in there.

Grouchyoscar · 17/03/2008 10:50

Small house for a small family
