Well yesterday's list got nowhere, had an awful night with DS and DH was at home again so I had a lie in until 11!! Lovely, but sooo not the plan. DH then announced that he was feeling lots better so he wanted to go shopping for walking boots (not as random as it sounds, we both needed a new pair). So we ended up shopping in Portsmouth as there were none to be found in town, went to see my parents for a cup of tea because we were 10 mins away from their house and didn't leave there until 7pm!! So we got home at 8, me having done nothing on my list and didn't even have pancakes

So today's list looks like this

Up and dressed
Pilates
Shower and wash hair
lunch x 3
1 load of washing plus nappies
Make pancake batter
Clean bathroom
Hoover upstairs

Ali - enjoy the pancakes today
