Dylsmum - LOL at your ds.

tort - I love that style. I had hair like that when I was younger, I found it needed washing and styling every morning (though doesn't take long to do) otherwise when you wake up half of it is flat and half stiking up lol (but I have really fine hair, yours might be easier).

Hunnybun. Hello

and hello EHM

Morning

Thanks for the thread EHM Enjoy mini-moovers I need to sort our car too but it's a foul wet day here so I don't think I'll be doing it today.
I like the haircut Tort, I can imagine it'd suit you
Hope you're all on the mend counting

The kids and I had haircuts yesterday - the first time ever ds has managed to sit nicly and not make any fuss at all - hooray!!! I had a v slight change to my usual cut but it's hardly noticable (less layers) and even dd had a couple of inches off her v long hair ( but it was her choice and it does look nice and grown up)

I have nothing on today. No work; no kids to deal with; the house is looking really quite good (although I could sort some more in the spare room I suppose )
I'd like to go into town just purely because other than going to work I haven't left teh village for 2 weeks

Both kids have friends coming for tea after school so I'll get some pizza dough on later too

Back later x

Sounds a lovely day ahead Bianca .

could be swan, but in reality I'm bored and tbh, lonely

I've decided to clear a cupboard in the hall...it's dh's get-in-from-work-and-dump-the-contents-of-my-pockets cupboard and has needed doing for a while.

Morning all!
Things not too bad here this morning.

Done:
all up , dressed, fed etc...
Brekkie cleared
WM on, finished, emptied, nappy wash on
shone sink ( didn't do it last night cause I was so tired and I left slow cooker dish soaking
mini 1/2 hour blessing - swept floors , quick dust all round, quick hover all round
bathrooms S&S
beds made
No dinner made - Friday is easy tea night - something out of freezer!

To do:
Mop downsatairs floors
Clean washing to put away
Sort out car ( bad mess!!)
maybe tackle our ensuite shower room
Tidying in our bedroom (again - how does it get so messy LOL)

Finally feel house looks reasonable ( not counting DS1's room - my project for nest week - and our en suite)
Hoping to start on some missions and maybe some zone cleaning next week now my routines are getting going
Can't believe what a difference it has made to the state of the house - really pleased - and amazingly I now spend LESS time cleaning/tidying etc... Much easier to keep on top of a clean tidy house - Great!

Right off to play with dd4....

bianca I have days like that too. (though never any that are child free so don't really have time to get lonely!) but days of feeling a bit bored and bleugh. Agree the weather doesn't help. Dreaming of long summer days in the garden...

dylsmum enjoy dinky dancers - and teddybear making sounds great - Dd would lilke that

swan sorry bout DD's ear - glad she is bright in herself though! Really quite enjoying this flying thing !

everyoneelse hi!

Well slight change to plan here this morning. Ds2 decided not to nap ( think he may be going from 2 to 1 nap a day...) so couldn't do car...(or was that just my excuse ...)
Decided to clear off mountain of rubbish from top of our wardrobe instead as Ds was happy playing in the cot as long as I was in the same room!
Also managed to get our en suite shower room done - boy it was bad!
Feel good now as only have DS1's room left to do before whole house is reasonable ( well with the slight exception of utility and obviously the garage doesn't count )

Cleared away
DW on
Clean washing put away
Ds now napping
Mopped downstairs floors

Bianca - are there any good evening classes/activities going on in your village or nearby or is there anything you've always really wanted to do and never had time for??

Agree SwanRiver - now I'm on day 16 I'm amazed that certain routines are really taking hold without an enormous effort of will ....hope your dd's ear gets better soon

LOL Dyslmum's candy floss and Madhouse's Futility area (I have more than one of those )

Congratulations everyone on a good week's work!

Afternoon all.
Hair cut done. Obviously don't look as good as Posh spice but i think it is ok. Going agin next week for a bit of colour to lighten it up. Real treat for me to do something for myself.

Front room fairly tidy and i had a sort out in DS1's room ready for his new bed.

Scatty Mine needed wetting and styling every morning anyway. It goes like a big sticky up pile of fluff when it has been washed lol!
Bianca Well done for doing the spare room. Nothing there you could car boot and make your self some pennies to spend/save?

countingthegreysorry to read you've all been poorly.
swanriver hope dd's ear is better soon.
bianca enjoy your day.
