'September Slatterns/List makers - How clean is your skirting??'

[PlumBumMum]

Stealing Ali's title as just realised we're out of room, and hopefully all lost slatterns will find us!!!

We have dd2 in with ds, they love sharing, there is room for dd2 in with dd1 but she dosen't want her,
Our 4th bedroom is our office, dh wants to move it outside into the shed eventually and dd2 can have her own room, but I think it is good for them to share when they are young!

have been outside helping dh so haven't got much done inside

Hello! Welcome nauseous and paranoia

Haven't had time to read through - will do later. Have had a manic morning on minimal sleep, DS didn't go to sleep until 11, woke at 2 and didn't go back to sleep until 4. Then he woke at 8am! I am sooo tired.

I want my dc to share a room and have bunkbeds but dd needs to stop wetting the bed first-if she had to make it all the way down a ladder to wee she would do it in the bed everytime. more difficult to change a top bunk in the middle if the night too I would imagine... Plus I think ds would havea fit that the top bunk wasn't his and at not yet 2 he definitely isn't having it!

Everyone else had one but not me. Sob. Had a Girls World though. Remember? One of those plastic heads that you could practise horrific make up and hair styles [shudder].

Hey JKS I'm only 32!!

Very late with an update - I'm a bit squiffy [hic]. DS' godmother is staying with us on her way home from a job interview - and she got the job! Obviously we had to have a bottle of bubbles, and a G&T while that was chilling, and then a bottle of red with dinner....and another. I may be quite late with my list tomorrow!

I've had a lovely day though, and got loads done, although the kitchen looks like a bombsite - will have to deal with that in the morning.
