Wolf, I'm glad you got away!
Jas, still it's nice to have them around occasionally and I think it's amazing to have a dh who can GET THINGS DONE even if it's with a sledgehammer.

Hello, Pink1970 welcome. Don't make too long a list of things to do...just a few at first.

And hello LoveBeing, are you finding things any easier?

Have masses of mess to sort and not sure where to start!

Starbear TBH I dont do loads. I tend to get the children and DH involved too.

Haven't got very far so far but my Brother is cutting the lawn which is one job less for me.
Right, i WILL go and get something done!!!!

Hi all. Back at work so just popping in. All kinds of chaos has descended while I've been off (I am getting organised at home, but not at work). Also I need to fill in various forms and jump through various hoops due to having an extra week off to look after ds. Better crack on I suppose.

Catch up later.

I have made a cake!
Yes, i did put off the housework in favour of cake making lol! At least there will be something for DC's lunch boxes.

Need to think of something for Dinner too.
Will skip lunch as nothing to eat in the house anyway.

And i am a bad mum! I realised as we got to school that i forgot kids drinks in lunch boxes. I told them i would come back later with them. Have only just remembered.
