Not at all, just add it to your list

• get taxi down to homebase to get more gardening "suuplies" - such as PROPER garden rubbish bags that won't tear to shreds on contact with Pampas grass, a broom (for clearning up), a strimmer (possibly?) to attack the back garden with and a fork...........I'm sorry the Pampas grass is going to be dug up

You are doing better than me cc we are all in pjs still apart from ds .

I can smell the lamb roasting. It is going to be ready in just under 3 hours. What am I going to do til then?

Oh, the torture of the slow-roasted lamb!

Sainsburys was very disappointing in the egg stakes, only some small childrens eggs with charcters on from a chocolate brand that I hadn't heard of. So I had to get a few minieggs instead. What have they done with their excess posh eggs?

If I neglected it today , I would get a phone call to say that my friends were coming in the morning and I would be too stressed to enjoy their visit! Let DD3 fall asleep at 3 today so she will probably be running round at 11 tonight

Your all doing well doing lists on Easter Monday,
Tried to go out and help dh but it is too cold and my throat too sore, have decided will go to docs on Wed morn if no better
Going to go and empty dishwasher and load again
Hang up washing
make a pot of broccilli soup
chicken nuggets for ds & dd2, no way they would eat green soup

dd2 has a strange blister type cut on her mouth and another few wee spots round her mouth, I thought she had foot and mouth when she had chicken pox, or she needs her dodee taken off her?
