weekly FLY for 14th June

[dylsmum1998]

morning all back in a mo with links etc

We've done
music
meatballs
window cleaning with dd downstairs
2 friends over for the twins, 4 played all afternoon in the garden some obscure imaginary game involving shed, climbing frame and 4 sacks
I chatted to 2 mums - house instantly appeared v untidy the minute they arrived, funny that
laundry upstairs (not put away)
dh and ds1 bought a cricket set and a football
garden too small for either so they played bounce the ball after tea (pasta)
kitchen messy will do later ahem

I've picked up ds2's jacket for Going Forth Mass tomorrow, now need to go out and help prepare Parish Hall for Sun party.

oh yes and shed door now off its hinges

Poor shed . Sounds like a good afternoon though .

I think we're in danger of overdoing it. Today DC have been to swimming lesson and cafe (with dh), then school fair and party (with me). Highlight of the school fair was when the Fire engine had to zoom off to real emergency . Also ds managed to win me a bottle of M&S wine on the tombola , and managed to restrain dd from buying back all the toys I'd donated (on her behalf!).

Laundry everywhere!!

scattyspice - I bet the kids LOVED seeing the fire engine go! Enjoy the wine. You think with fairs you're going to get rid of loads of stuff but somehow more comes back!!
Had to take DD to a birthday party and DS has a friend to sleep over but I really feel I should have got through more today than I have..Story of my life.

we sat down to watch our lovefilm dvd tonight, I made popcorn (never done it myself before) and the tv is broken . trying to work out now if I can afford a new one. Have pinched ds's one out of his bedroom for now. Luckily his dad bought him one a few weeks back

Ruby there are a lot of eye infections going around at the mo, some of the children in my school have been off with them. Hope dd is better soon, they are not nice

MC good luck with your race for life, and enjoy the holiday

Swan sounds like a good day, shame about the shed door- is it easy to fix?

Scatty you have trained ds well, winning wine is great

Just13moreyears, you have done lots of little jobs today, and thats with having children home. They always slow us down, esp when have to go to parties etc as well

Morning all. Have a horrible cough that's wearing me down at the moment - I get them every couple of years. I thought I'd been looking after myself better so am quite upset about it. Am going to give up wine for a bit and see if that helps. First jobs today:

• dishwasher, Father's Day stuff + kids' breakfasts, laundry on, do post.

Dyls oh that must have been v. annoying. Well done on ds dad foresight!

Yest was lovely,
today has slightly gone off rails again, felt v. grumpy about state of house because I didn't clear up yest due to doing party set up and this morning due to Going Forth Mass, dh not on good form due to too much curry lsat night him and his CURRY drives me bonkers [said I was going to be mean to him but really - he has vowed never to have another Morrisons curry/or any curry again]
cousin was coming round with puppy to say hello, and now cancelled (I have to say I am v. relieved as I can now clean house
dcs in park with dad playing cricket etc, another friend of theirs coming shortly

still need to do blooming homework
and cancel ds1 altar serving as he refuses to do it [stress stress stress - heads for cuppa]

sounds good ruby .

Been to Town Moor funfair today. Went on the big wheel and merrygo round, Ds and Dh went on the dodgems and ds and dd went on a mini roller coaster and hook a duck. Major sensoryover load .

Ironing

Ruby my experience is that people are amazingly meanthrifty once they are not in an actual shop... and will only pay less than the pound shop.
When they are in Claire's Accessories it is a different story.

Or sell to fellow mother giving party at batch discount price?

But you could always try it.

Mowed lawn
Made cake
ate quite a lot of cake
cancelled altar servng
nitcombing
homework - dh redeemed himself by supervising
more playing in garden
