I am feeling relieved that chicken pox is done and dusted in this house. Easter four years ago exactly, and dts were miserable -but ONLY for a few days, then just a lot of enforced hibernation - that was really the boring part.

I have done very little non-leisure today.
BUT
did dd's homework
ds2's reading book half of it
made ds1 go an EDUCATIONAL computer site rather than the dreaded mini-clip
dd made a applepie with me; rolled out the pastry and chopped the apples and put an A on top!
two loads of laundry
discussed with dh 8 yr old ds1's aversion to the objects in museums (likes only the running around bit and the cafe)
made cod onion potato bake for kids (very nice - I've eaten leftovers)

They are now watching Jumanji, which they have been reminding us about all day. and dd watched Brother Bear earlier...bad telly day I feel. Ds1 is such an addict. He needs some old fashioned hobbies, but it is difficult to force interests on others.

Wolf, I'm sure doctor will listen about knee. Perhaps Scatty has ideas?

Wolf I am constantly amazed how week after week I don't iron anything, but the world doesn't end! Did iron uniforms for scouts last night for the parade not wanting to let the side down etc. And a shirt for dh. And even that he said, why are you ironing???But he was grateful.

galen its feels great when you catch up.
scattyroutine cards sound great.
ruby its like a virtual flash of the boobs your little drawing

Wishing TMH restful night, along with dh & Mini Mads.

MadamPeePeePearDrop had another successful day pee wise. Only 1 mishap, dispite her best effects she pooped her pants whilst I went to collect dry cleaning.DH coped very well with this on his own leaving the dirty pants on the work top in the kitchen!

Have a good night all.x

Everything is done. I have really acheived this weekend.

Tomorrow morning I'm working then being a dinner lady. I really need to get some serious kip. Thank you all for your kind concern. It's OK EMH, Wolf does know where I live so I will behave.

I am still good vibing TMH and wishing her healthiness and wellness.
