A new thread taking us slatterns into March.

Evening everyone,

DONE
Have done the dishes
Tidied The sitting room
Tidied kitchen

DD3 has dropped her toy and went for F**K Sake. DH is in big trouble when h gets home!

CC but I bet you giggled abit

Had to walk out of he room. Not used to my kids cursing, other 3 never did it,though DS reckons he has free rein to do it now since he went into secondary and I am constantly correcting him

my ds did it too,
but it was excused as he had been out with dh and someones car rolled in to the front of dhs van (where ds had been standing a couple of mins before hand) and ds overheard dh asking the man politely did he not know where his hand brake was
He only said it twice though

It is funny to hear them saying it, but I hate hearing children using it, the word will have to be banned. Need to get off this and get the girls to bed, but it seems like hard work

CC -
ds1 has started saying 'bother' after a Mog book and although it's ok, i'm not that pleased.
he also has a 'shuppup' (shut up) word that he uses when i haven't listened which is a bit

DS slipped and bashed his mouth and there was blood so I took him to the Docs, but he is fine. My nerves are shot though!

Wasting - you've done loads, infact is that a finished list?? Hope DS is ok, and you - it's such a shock when something like that happens.

Plum I could swap the chocolate - do you have a recipe? White is very sweet though isn't it so perhaps I'd need to adjust the sugar too??

First slattern baby on it's way then, hope all is well NBM!

Definitely not a finished list! My list is quite detailed though, I'm sure most would include cleaning the highchair as part of the meal, but it feels like such a chore, that I feel I deserve recognition for it.

Give a shout out to dizzy she might know better she has a couple of choc recipes

def high chairs are a den for allsorts

Cheers Plum, that looks bloody lovely!

Wasting I'm a believer in breaking the job down into it's component parts - you feel like you've achieved something sooner that way!

hello everyone - my house looks appalling - I've got 2 hours to get it looking reasonable - as DH is coming over with a load of his washing to stick in my machine (he's still without a washing machine) - he won't say anything about the mess, but I can't let him see it like this I'd be too

So before lunchtime I need to

• get the washing done
• load the dishwasher and put it on
• Clear the kitchen worktops
• Unblock the downstairs toilet
• Tidy up the toys in the living room
• pick up the rubbish from the living room floor
• get washing dried (well start)
• put all rubbish in outside bins/garage
• run hoover round

may add more as I think of it

Whats going on this morn? What was the strange post
