Well so far I have hung out a load of washing. Its spitting with rain (again) but blowing a gale so with any luck it'll dry a bit. Hope so cos I've got loads of washing hung up in the bathroom too. Its like a laundrette in this house.

Next job is to hoover round, throw the duster around, feed the kids and take them to two parties. Oh joy.

littlemissloopy · 22/06/2008 09:27

Morning

Some early starts this morning!

I have food shopping to do this morning....and the rest of yesterday's list.

Its not raining here yet, but looks overcast. We are going to a party later today, next door. They are having a BBQ if the rain keeps off.

babyjjbaby · 22/06/2008 15:28

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay my washing is dry

grouchyoscar · 22/06/2008 16:34

Errrh...hello, can I come in? I haven't been about for a couple of days.

I've had a crazy weekend and have only just got laptop time. I have been FLYing during the weekend but other things

It was the town's carnival this weekend and Ed was asked if he wanted to join the procession as part of the rugby team. He was given a kit and trouped round with team, coaches and mascot. He looked adorable and stayed with the group even though it was throwing it down with rain.

Got home and picked up on the housework

Clean round and re-organise the cellar (Push bikes went to rag and bone men and I had to sort out the pile for the tip
Clean out cat litter
Reline floor with paper and sawdust
Heave soiled stuff up the steps
Sweep kitchen floor
Mop downstairs
Load WM and run
Empty WM
Sort into drying piles

And I've

Pegged out
Sorted out the mini greenhouse disaster (it had blown over with all the tomato plants in it )
Planted some basil seeds, flowers and sunflowers
Made lunch
Made lunchboxes for tomorrow
Sorted out bank accounts
Brought washing in
Load TD and run

and that's all I can remember tbh but I've done lots and lots

DH has de-cluttered the office/playroom and I've taken the rubbish out of the cellar. DH and FIL have done a tip trip and I feel the house feels a lot better for it

And I think I've got away with doing any ironing

Hope you are all well and hugs if not x

babyjjbaby · 22/06/2008 18:17

where is everyone today

Jas · 22/06/2008 18:21

babyjjbaby · 22/06/2008 18:32

whispywhisp · 22/06/2008 19:40

madhouse...where are you going on hols?

Well, unfortunately, with two kids parties to go to, which took up most of my day, I've done absolutely nothing in the way of housework today so tomorrow will be a busy one to catch up...fantastic!

TheMadHouse · 22/06/2008 20:00

We are off to North Wales - prestatyn Pontins. £40 for Monday to Friday .

We are really looking forward to it. We really love Wales - Honeymooned in Bethezda all of 13 years ago

whispywhisp · 22/06/2008 20:20

I love Wales too. The South coast is beautiful. Our last holiday in Wales was in Tenby. Hope you have a lovely time and hope the weather stays lovely for you. xx
