Morning star
My to do list looks simislar to yours. I'm rushing around trying to do most of it now so we can go park later.
Flat looks like a complete s*^t-pit. Why? Because I have done sweet FA all weekend. Not even routines

My ironing board broke, so getting a new one tomorrow. The pile is huge!

Morning all

Not a great start here TBH. DH did not put the lid on DS1's cup of milk correctly, cue a full beaker of milk all over me nad my bed at 6.30 this morning.

I have a load of bedding in the washer, but have the duvet to wash and the towels.

SO we have been up since then, both boys are fractious. I have a headache, due to lack of sleep. DS1 had earache most of the night.

I feel like crying, but I am not going to. I am going to pull myself together and deal.

Also I bust the sewing machine last night - arggggggggggggggggg

grouchyoscar · 24/08/2009 11:31

The washer is fixed! YAY! I can do the washing! Repair cost much less than a new machine.

Grouchy goes to collect the washing together with a big grin on face
