Hi Guys,

Hoping today is my last day of confinement as most of DDs spots have scabbed over.

Need to house but cant be bothered.

TheMadHouse · 09/05/2008 09:47

Morning all

Thank Chrunchie too. I am shattered, DS1 was up in the night again and SH slept in

Well morning routine is completed and I have done the mission.

I have also planted some peas with DS1 and we have watered all the plants.

DH was explaining last night about our recycling and rubbish collections, so we have stood outside and watched the bin men, who came and explained it to DS1 too - how nice

We are off to music and movement this morning. I have warned them if it is anything like last week we are straight home.

Then back for lunch
DS1 to preschool
DS2 for nap
Ironing
General clean for the weekend
Friends over for tea and playdate

DS1 has just spilt his SQUASH all over himself - bad mummy alert.

They have very little crap, so a little squash is not the end of the world

Jas · 09/05/2008 12:02

Morning

Lol @ squash TMH.... I just gave ds a gingerbread man on the way home from toddler group to make up for the lack of juice
He's drinking water out of my bottle really well, but won't use his cup.

EHM - I'm back to house busting the bedrooms today.
I did quite a bit yesterday, but you can't really tell any more.

Got to go....ds is thrownig toys downt the stairs.....back later on

grouchyoscar · 09/05/2008 12:24

Thanks for the links to the glorious EHM Waves to Scatty Saga Dylsmum FGS THM and Jas Hope you are well and enjoying the sun
Hello to anyone I've missed

Bit of a steady day for me today. I didn't get on to the site yesterday, DH busy at work so single mum time for me last night. Then I woke up at 3:45 and didn't get back off properly. Dentist gave me Anti-Bs to deal with a wisdom tooth flare up AF arrived yesterday too (2 Days early ) so I am not pushing it at all. The house is acceptable so, why push it?

Plus the next door neighbour had a go at me downtown about something I had nothing to do with I just walked away with her ranting behind me. Bit frosty on the yard this morning but it's her problem, not mine.

Done my morning routines and went to coffee morning, came home and ...errr...that's it really. To Do is get Ed and DH is home at 5

Take it easy.....

scattyspice · 09/05/2008 12:40

Good for you Grouchy. I'm joining you.

TheMadHouse · 09/05/2008 13:26

Afternoon all

I have managed to get the ironing done and the house is tidyish.

I am going to leave the mopping of the floor to later this evening, as I know the boys will be in the sand this afternoon and it goes everywhere.

I am planning to get some potting up done next, just having a 15 min break.

I have been planing.

Done four pots up to now, loads more to do, will crack on after DS1 home and friend round.

Jas · 09/05/2008 14:34

The dc and I don't cope with sun very well,so I'm happy to be in my nice cool house. We'll go out in the evening when it is a bit cooler.

Glad to see youare having a day "off" GO

@ all the clothes shopping.

I'd love to go out but all our money is going on getting the cars sorted out this month The other one failed its MOT and we can't pay fo it to be done until next week when (if) dp gets paid, but in the mean time he is driving the Jag to kent every day, and used a whole tank of petrol in two days

Ah well, the dds have both invited friends over for Saturday tea, so that should keep them happy at minimal expense this weekend.

I'm making progress on the bedrooms, too, but losing motivation, so I'm going to leave the rest and get the girls to help me after school.

damewashalot · 09/05/2008 16:37

Not flyng, too hot to be pg today, just can't shift myself oh well, weekend Have a good one all.

Jas · 09/05/2008 17:56

lol Dame
Have a nice restful weekend

I've given up on the dds room. I'll get dd2 to help me finish it off tomorrow.

I'm going to go and potter in the garden once ds is ready for bed I think....

Ludaloo · 09/05/2008 18:06

Hi all

Have been busy all day! Standing in for one of the nursery leaders this morning, then cleaning, then food shopping, then the fair with the kids!

All dressed up now ready for the ball....just off to my friends house to get my hair done.
Apparently the sugar babes have pulled out and we have Goldie Lookin Chain instead!

Anyhoo...see you all tomorrow.....without too much of a hangover I hope!!!!!

Ludaloo · 09/05/2008 18:07

EHM I'm not taking a camera...they are not allowed, so we'll take some before we leave (just as well as I would look dreadful half cut I expect! )

dylsmum1998 · 09/05/2008 18:38

really need to tidy and hoover but i dont want to- maybe later

grouchyoscar · 09/05/2008 18:50

Hello again

I tidied Ed's room and set up his car mat, potted up my plants from B&Q went to Ed's Friday assembly, picked him up then we went to the park, round the lake, home along the old train line and a shower for a mucky Ed. 3hrs and no FLYing!

Ed bless him had a good week at school (yipee) He hasn't sat on the 'thinking chair' all week (a first that one) and he got the weeks lunchtime award for being polite, well behaved and making healthy choices. After last week's turmoil I am really proud of him. Well done Ed!

Signing off for the week, should be about tomorrow

scattyspice · 09/05/2008 18:55

I have the washer on and a cleanish house. SHould be mopping the floor, but not sure I can get the motivation. I have been out and watered all the plans, but I am peeved as I can not find my bloody carrot seed.

tortoise · 09/05/2008 20:19

Hello. At last, i am sitting down! Been on the go all day! Shame it was FLYing. But i have all of DD1's birthday pressies except the scooter she wants. Friend who loves near me has said she can order it from toys r us for me (phew).
