Who's going to tackle Wednesday with me?

got up at 5:30. As the twins have what was my dressing room as their bedroom, and I don't want to wake them up so early, I now leave my bedroom through the outside veranda door, dash along the veranda and come in the kitchen door. this morning as I entered the kitchen an small voice said "Good Morning"  It is not light at 5:30just sort of very dark greyish- but there was a little somebody happily stacking the recycling into the cup cupboard.  I told him it was still night and put him back to bed!.

 

got up ds17 so he wouldn't miss his bus, bathed twins and fed them

 

 2 loads of laundry washed hung and dried - will fold tonight

 

ironing done

 

ds11 not doing schoolwork :toetap05:

 

lunch served and cleaned up

 

DD14 washed whole house windows inside and out

 

DS11 mowed lawn in play area

 

DS11 finally did morning schoolwork

 

DD14 made orange cake for visitors that are coming tomorrow

 

rushed around kitchen and lounge room doing last minute tidying up things

 

cooked leftover lamb roast in gravy with vegetables for tea. There is something rewarding in serving toddlers that say after every mouthful that it is yum and they like it. :thumbup1: DS11 and DD14 told them that broad beans are really yum, ate one and made delighted faces he twins asked them if they could have some more, dd and ds happily offloaded their broad beans onto their ( the twins) plates and were delighted to see them all vanish. :sneaky2:

 

Tomorrow we have our first DHS formal visit to see how the twins are going. They will do a full house inspection at the same time. I have a list on the table of jobs for everyone to do. there is not much left to do as we mostly have a tidy place.

Good morning everyone!

Is is dark and stormy here.  Vaccumed, cleaned the microwave using that cool bowl of water trick and put a cheery candle on.

 

Oldest actually slept well last night for the first time in ages, was so happy for her.  It makes such a huge difference.

 

Need to run the boyfriend home and get myself to a doctor appointment, been sick for 2 weeks and dh insisted I go.

4:20 and my energy is crashing.  Actually I can feel myself going into a flare.  

 

school is done

allergy shots are done for both ds and me

chiropractor is done for all of us

flu shot is done for ds so now everyone except for me (who can't get one) is covered.

Starbucks is done.   ;)

I figured out what to make for dh for dinner.  Two of us can't eat it because of allergies but there are other things we can have.  The main thing is that it is easy and that is what I need at the moment.

3 hours later and ds needs the cast on for another 2 weeks!  Luckily he doesn't seem to mind.  But it is tiring carrying that extra weight.  Since we were at the hospital for 3 hours I did not get nearly as much done as I was planning.  But now I'm to wiped out to attempt anything other than looking at paint color while I lie in bed watching something on netflix.  night all hope you all had a productive and good day
