Hi EHM Dylsmum LBB and Starbear

So far,
a bit tired after book club last night- rather a posh house this time so feeling a bit - also conversation with book group ladies lastnight a bit disjointed - feel now vaguely annoyed not quite sure about what. Think I need another book group where people talk about the book more!!!This one has been going five years, but somehow not quite gelling...

Infants Sports this morning, so just time to load dw and have a cuppa
We managed to get to school in one piece slightly ragged around the edges...
Ds1 did his violin practise
waterbottles, hats and library books found
reading books signed

Just chjecking in - bbl

morning all
cant stay long, willcatch up properly later.
Really glad it's friday!

Lots to sort ....
school drop off done. Second emergency school run done with lunchbox found still in car on arrival home
Feeling frazzled and hassled already....

I so desperately need more hours in the day!

Off to have a cuppa and take a deep breath whilst formulating plan of action...

later ladies

Hi all, still trying to get going with the flying! Hope all are well, may pop back later.

Everywhere i look is mess.
My house has been taken over by mess.
Kids have dumped stuff everywhere.
Shoes have all managed to miss the shoe rack.
Bits of playmobil are scattered.
Clothes/pjs dropped where they took them off.
Dirty dishes etc all over the kitchen.
Sofa cushions half pulled off.

I'm at the point
where I quit.

I've had enough

I've had it right
up to here now

I'm taking a break
well
I quit
yeah.

(Lyrics From this song! lol! That bit says exactly how i feel!)

And now i need to go back down town to do some shopping. Probably better to do it now rather than at school pick up time.

swan I suspect if I joined a book club I would just chat Then get annoyed with myself!
Mummy Try and have an easy day.
littleboyblue Not easy going around on tip-toes. I'm so glad I don't do nights anymore I don't think I could have slept well with people in the house. I remember staying over and sleeping at Mum's once. Gran & her were 'just' chatting in the garden but why so loud!!!

i have done a thoruogh clean of living room as i decided i didnt like the unit where i was going to put it, cue re-shuffle of all furniture so decided while i was moving everything i would clean behind it.
gas check is all done so will be off out after we have eaten lunch

welliesandpj's how dare you intrude!! only joking .
hello

tort i hate days like that- how about you chase dc round til they clean it up after school . or i collect all things that aren't put away and place them on ds's bed he then has to clean it when he gets home and gets the message for a few weeks, before we do it again

Tortoise, you can do it, you don't have to quit. They are just things (the mess that is). You are more powerful and important than those things, you can beat them.

Sometimes I have to keep repeating to myself that it is lovely that they like playing, even if playing makes a terrible mess. It is so frazzling that they don't clear up but it would be dreadful if they just sat quietly and had no energy to make a mess or noise at all.

First stop for me now before I get bogged down is hoovering behind beds in boys room.
Then I will sit down and do curtains for a bit.
Then piano keyboard for ten minutes.
Then some dates on the calendar properly.

Ds2 has a sore knee and couldn't run at sports and he is such a lightening bolt so felt a bit glum watching him limp..
dd came second in her race so she was pleased

Determined not to feel bleugh today, so see you all later when something is DONE.

Funny, Tort, that song reminds me of Footloose by Kenny ...something, which is really catchy and makes me want to rush around the house busily so thanks for the link!

Hello ALL

Should have popped in Wolf Tort You OK?
waves to Wendy Mad Prof Scatty Swan Galen LLB LBAM EHM and everyone else

Having a quetish day today after yesterday's manic one. Lost 2 lbs at slimming world last night, received my half stone certificate and sticker. Ridiculous how stickers and certificates work for adults as much as children, so I was really pleased. Have had a few biscuits this morning but within allowed limits.

Hope everyone is having a good morning.
Tort please don't give up. My flat looks like a tip half teh time but doesn't take long thanks to flying to pull it back to a reasonable state, not Anthea Turner style but one thing I will NEVER be is a perfect housewife (except in my dreams maybe)
Starbear that's an impressive list.
Hello to everyone else sorry, I have to go and sort out lunch.

BBL

Grouchy, two of mine just crossed the road to school blithely this morning, thinking the mere presence of lollipop lady was magical spell, not realising she had to be in the ROAD WITH HER LOLLIPOP to stop traffic. I feel I spend an awful lot of time shouting STOP STOP to them. Luckily they seem to know the edge of pavement is "sticky" so they run run and suddenly grind to a halt. We do a lot of walking everywhere. It's actually the driveways that drive me cuckoo, because what is supposed to be safe pavement then becomes hazardous.

Hi all.

Mine screech to a halt and teeter on the edge of pavements too, must give the car drivers a heart attack!

I am dashing as busy at work.

To do
Lidl

oh damn there's the phone again bbl.

GO Yeah i'm ok. Not great but ok!
Cleared up the kitchen a bit and swept the floor.
Front room floor clearer and hoovered and sofa put back together!
Shoes still all over the place!

I am soooo tired. If i didn't have to pick kids up in a mo i would easily go to sleep i think.

have you got all four all weekend Tortoise, or will the boys go to their dad's?

Just don't worry about house, have a cup of tea, and just sit for a while - sounds like you've made good headway.

I've hoovered behind beds and wardrobe and done skirtings in two rooms, nearly tripped over hoover several times and feel like 1000 degrees hotter.
Every room seems messier than ever but at least less dusty.
cleared up about one hotspot (my handbag)
stuffed a pillow up chimmey to stop cat bringing soot down again
Cleared kitchen a bit

Tiger I'm always impressed with everyone else's list especial those that have various things done before 9am Wow! Must Must get up earlier on Fly day (more fun, than yukky paid work day)
