Morning All

We have had a tough night with DS1, his chest is bad again, though DH has took the brunt of it last night - thanks dear

Right, so were are we. Well today you need to read a fly testimonital or another bit of the fly site

It is also time to add the laundry in to your daily routine. It doesnt matter wether this is evening or morning, just when it suits you.

So our routines should be looking something like this

Morning Routine

  • Get up and get dressed doing your hair and face
  • Make your bed
  • Looking at your posted reminders in the kitchen and bathroom
  • Reading 2 minutes of reminders
  • Recognizing the negative voices and changing them
  • Put out your Hot Spots for 2 minutes
  • 5 Minute Room Rescue (pick any room in the house) set your timer and go!
  • Laundry
  • Mission

Before Bed Routine

  • Keep your sink shining
  • Lay out your clothes for tomorrow
  • Put out your Hot Spot
  • Laundry
  • set a regular bedtime and stick to it

As you can see our routines are getting larger and should be becoming natual to do.

Hi, just wanted to say thank you for getting me started the other day. Cam't beliueve how quickly it's made a difference!

Bianca Boots have the playmobil circus plus some of the accessories included in their three for two offers on line. Loved your dd's letter

BiancaCastafiore · 25/11/2008 16:18

Grouchy you were right - I have replied on your other thread too

I have ordered some bits for dd And a couple of small things for ds. I think I need to go and look at Bionicles in the shops so will brave a trip once I'm feeling better.

My chicken soup has gone straight through me I have lost 10lbs in 5 days
Good thing I didn't try to go to watch dd. I still keep sobbing about it though

Luda dds room sounds as though it'll be lovely!

BiancaCastafiore · 25/11/2008 16:19

Agh! Lostgirl I have just ordered the circus from John Lewis as I had £20 voucher to spend!

AnneOfAvonlea · 25/11/2008 16:21

Kitten duvet £7.99

ludaloo · 25/11/2008 16:22

EHM RL cats might be a bit difficult to post! Thank you though

(you did mean real life cats did you?)

AnneOfAvonlea · 25/11/2008 16:22

AnneOfAvonlea · 25/11/2008 16:24

Also if you put kitten into google images you can get some gorgeous photos that you could print and put in a cheap frame.

ludaloo · 25/11/2008 16:24

Ahhh she already has a kitten duvet set Anne I have just asked her if she liked the butterfly set and she said she didn't really want pink and asked if the was a bugs one!??

AnneOfAvonlea · 25/11/2008 16:25

lol. Does she like puppies? Wilkinson had a lilac puppies one...

ludaloo · 25/11/2008 16:25

Oh I like that idea Anne she was asking for kitten picyures

ludaloo · 25/11/2008 16:27

Nope not keen on puppies (I did try and tell dh that earlier but he still got them on a border...I don't think she'll be too keen and she doesn't hold back on telling you what she likes either!)

AnneOfAvonlea · 25/11/2008 16:31

lol. ok no puppies for but cuteness factor look at this

I should be doing housework. cant face it with no heating....

AnneOfAvonlea · 25/11/2008 16:31

This is nice

BiancaCastafiore · 25/11/2008 16:31

Just thinking about it...was I hasty to order today? Should I have waited till Monday when the changes in VAT reduces prices everywhere?....

AnneOfAvonlea · 25/11/2008 16:32

Bianca - it would only save you £2.50 in £100 so I wouldnt wait.

BiancaCastafiore · 25/11/2008 16:33

If you go for any of those cute kittens Luda, we will never be able to visit your house - dd would be soooo

ludaloo · 25/11/2008 16:45

Ooooh she is very enthusiastic about the next set!

starbear · 25/11/2008 16:50

JAS To avoid burning anything when busy, just keep putting a timer on it. Even if its every 10 mins. I think it drives people nuts in my house but other wise I would burn sooo much. I have give you a fab lentil recipe but you have to like garlic.
Wow you are a busy bunch.
Done almost all of my list except hang out second lot of laundry and find camera. The night is still young.
The house is a little untidy but I'll have a whizz round put things away even if just stuffing it in a cupboard. That could be how I lost the camera Going to collect Ds from nursery now. See ya later

TheMadHouse · 25/11/2008 17:47

Oh I love the bugs set.

I am feeling a bit urg - DH will be home soon. I have been sick . Prob just shock. Never mind
