Lists for the Slatternly - May edition

[TrillianAstra]

Okay, I am clearly worrying way too much about this but there are only a few spaces left in the old thread!

(What do I think will happen if we finish without a new list? We'll just make a new one. Relax woman!)

Thanks to alicecrail for the title.

Please finish the old thread before starting on this one - there could be a prize if you are number 1000.

Morning everyone, all still asleep in this house. DD3 came in to join DH and me last night, so as a result this morning when I got up to go to the loo, DH rolled over and I couldnt get back into the bed. House is in sh*te because we went out last night and left my 17yr old neice babysitting. She does stuff with the girls but they obviously forget about tidying up. Beautiful day here so hopefully will get lots of washing done.

Alice it is Thursday I have given up getting fed up I think what makes it a bit of a PITA is that all the girls were here by now but never mind I am going to enjoy the sunshine .

JKS Hope ds continues to do well .

PBM I do not envy you sounds like a bit of a manic morning .

@ Lice .

Right will be back to update soon.

.

JKS, it is nice but I think once they're baby comes it won't happen as much it'll prob be the other way round

Hi, just back from beach. DS had great time and was on good behavior again thankfully. He is now installed infront of 'Cars' so I should be able to get a few things done.

Hope everyone had/having a good bank holiday.

Okay have finally sorted all socks and everything, but have to go now and hang more washing and make packed lunches for tomorrow, tuna & mayo me thinks!
dishes are done!
might even have alittle glass of wine as I watch 24
WME where are you din't see you on 24 thread either?

And everyone else be warned I will be doing a check list on who completed their mission for last week (cheesecake brownies?)

Does it still count if you burnt the brownies slightly?

(Would like to point out that they are still edible and quite moreish once the burnt bit was cut off. Note to self - buy correct tin and use slow oven next time )

Whoever said that the recipe was not toddler friendly was correct, mainly due to distraction afterwards making me forget to get them out of the oven.

Had bath - heaven
Rest of stuff - just about done.
