I know what you mean riven. I was posting on a thread about gromets, now ds has had so much toruble with his ear(about 8 grommets and 2 major ops) but tbh I can't remember most of it.

Hi, trying to do some work at the moment. I am desperately trying to complete my PhD but I have so many broken days it's hard to get going. Mumsnet is great but terrible for working - I'd much rather be posting!!

see back in the dark ages, we had clean houses as...........no internet

In the days of no internet, i'd get a tan in the summer...

I had 2 kids, so it was all a blur

I have a cleaner house now than I did pre-kids. I worked full time and didn't have to worry about anyone eating crumbs off the floor and dust bunnies, back then!

(Also had a filthy slob of an ex, which didn't help matters.)

Hey.. Okay if I pop in on my lunch hour?

My house is cleaner.. Until the hoards arrive back from school Although at the moment I have zip lock bags all over the dining table! Oh and lined up starwars figures.. Grrr

tWas in the beginings of Internet time that I met dh online lol.. I blame the Internet for a lot

Ouryve, What's a dust bunnie?

My house is a tip, my garden has the neighbours talking due to all the weeds. And here I am on Mumsnet.

You know those little balls of fluff that you find in corners and behind the sofa when you haven't vacuumed for a while? Dust bunnies.

My house was clean-ish when I posted before. The kids are home, now and the floor is covered with crumbs form their afternoon snack, ALL of the stickers out of a sticker book DS2 had - the mess is a joint venture with DS1 - so nice to see them playing cooperatively and assorted matchbox cars. There's also another bit of floor covered in a mix of jigsaw pieces and shoes, but that's just out of sight

I only cleaN up when someone is coming over, like the portage lady this morning. its in a state now shes gone!

I wiped the dust off the T.V. today someone touched it and left a clean handprint and that was V annoying so cleaned it had to be.

Take a break from here Riven?

I'm sorry you feel like that.

I know what you mean about not being able to ignore threads that get to you though.

once I had a dead spider with dust on him. poor thing!
Riv, If you feel like you need a break to regroup. then you know we'll be here to welcome you back, when you have recharged

got to share.
DD is so funny
you know the silly thing you dom wiggle your hands by your ears, or hand on your nose to make faces....
well I was doing that to her when she was on the bus, she shouted at me and did it back in her own way
