Alls well that ends well then really.
After my decluttering frenzy this morning I managed to go and finish what I had started after lunch, threw all the broken shoe boxes that were doing a very sorry job of containing my many pairs of shoes away in the recycling, put a bin liner full of rubbish in the bin, (finally) got the children dressed and headed out to the clothes bank to drop off all unebayable clothing, drop the keys and payment off for the Halloween hall hire (I know, two whole weeks late!), post the letters and then came back and photographed and listed all the ebayable stuff on ebay. 🙂
Children played apart and together, ate their tea (although Davies refused his own brand tomato soup saying ‘it doesn’t taste like normal’ well no it won’t darling, it’s not expensive Heinz I could have, but didn’t retort – child has expensive tastes and I don’t know where he gets ’em from! 😉 ) and then ate loads of fruit too (Tarly: Mummy, Mummy, I need more seaweed! (kiwi!)) while I did all this industriousness.
Davies has tonight asked me if I love him more than my computer. Of course Darling, so why do you spend more time on your computer than you do playing with me? Erm… this from the child who spent 2 hours on Zoombinis today, he clearly has the ‘if you can’t beat ’em…’ mentality sussed already!
Tarly shut the bathroom door yesterday and when Ady opened it again (she gets trapped in there as she can’t reach to turn the doorknob properly) she stomped up to him and said ‘leave it shut. I need my peas and light!!!’ which we eventually translated as peace and quiet! 🙂
Tomorrow we are out and about early to meet up with Lucy at the park (she was at the Halloween party, dressed in red with the cute devil baby for those who came and are able to get points of reference from my non blogging friends now!) for a bit, weather permitting, and then I suppose I might bring myself to do some playing with the children (who seem quick to forget that whenever I end up playing with them they quickly lose interest in me and bugger off to play by themselves again anyway!).
When can I get to see you? Are you around Friday afternoon or are you buggering orf then?
Wed you have TT don’t you?
Wed we have TT but I’ll be home between 11 and 3 if you want to come over here? Ady’s going to come home earlyish Fri, prob be setting off around 4pm. Doing soft play in Worthing on Thurs if you fancy coming along?
That devil baby of Lucy’s was very cute – I think we had a nice photo of it (him? her?) in our photoset so point her in that direction if she hasn’t seen it already.
rofl at Davies and his expensive tastes 😉
Thursday hell day.
Be at yours Wed 11am with cake.
OK darling, see you then 🙂
