Well Dh is doing story time with Ds so I have a mo. I have been knocking myself out trying to get this house in order after five years of just allowing it to tick over. Pls forgive my long lists Hope DH notices. But, hey! I wanted to marry a man, so what do you expect. TM When I have flu I behave like a man I moan and stay in bed or take my quilt downstairs & watch telly. If its good enough for them its good enough for us. That goes for you to Grouchy Scatty The best we've had in a long while but it had it's negative moments.
back in a mo.

Evening all

I am done for the day.

DH is working from home, so I can go to the hospital with mum tomorrow and go to councelling and have as much rest as possible, which isnt going to be a lot at this rate.

We had curry with home made naan bread - yummy
We have also made some salt dough halloween decs which are in the oven cooking for decorating on wedensday.
DW is on
PJ's are on
Clothes are out for tomorrow
All school paperwork is sorted
HW done
Kitchen cleaned up.

So all in all not bad considering I have felt pap

Hello all
Been super busy today running errands, cooking etc.
Can officially report that you need natural yoghurt to make homemade naan bread - we had run out so I substituted creme fraice - Result was nice, but more like pitta!
I'm going for a bath. DS up at 5 this morning, to much shouting from me!
galen thanks, I had seen that in Toys R Us and thought it looked good. We have lots of track, but no tunnels, engine sheds etc and the set looked like it came with that.
Am still pondering the worth of a train table as opposed to the floor. But DS still not set up any train track since I mentioned it last week!

Wendy you and me both. So tired last night I wasn't even my normal self of 'okay, I'll go in your bed' at 4am. I let him have my radio to listen to Lee Mack Comedy on BBC7 he still returned at 5am saying 'Is it morning yet as I'm bored!' No go to bed.
Right I have found his building Soc. book & going to put his Birthday money in it on Friday. Bit by bit I'm getting some order at home.

Done
mopped bathroom floors
made dh some very powerful bluecheese and celery soup for supper
homework x 2 (ds1 doesn't have any - hurray)
violin x 2
little friend round - played v. nicely dressing up
more piano practice (me)
supper for all kids
supper for grownups
researched Ella Fitzgerald for dd school project, and sang jazz version of A tisket A tasket with her several times so that she can BE Ella Fitzgerald for school.
(actually that was before supper)

now more kitchen planning on paper for BUILDER'S RETURN tomorrow to cobble some of our mad ideas together

All in all a very nice day but alas no glitter or glue anywhere (unless you count the mashed potato in the soup)

evening ladies,
started flying again today hope to be back in the saddle soon.

marking thread so I can find you easily tomorrow.

SimplyWantsAMagicWandPlease · 12/10/2009 21:59

Good evening everyone.

Just a quickie as I've not sat down this evening yet.

Carry forward to tomorrow:-
~ hoover throughout
~ start doing missions!

I have done lots of things today incl stripping 3 beds, doing several loads of washing, giving the kitchen a good tidy up and clean, listening and talking to friend who appears to have the same illness I had some years ago and is awaiting a diagnosis, making casserole for tea (3 sittings for tea with all the comings and goings here!) and an apple crumble for pudding. See you tomorrow!
