Hi everyone,
Getting in early again for today. Work again and kids are with friends and relatives until early afternoon. Then my DB and DNephews and DNiece over for a BBQ, which I am really looking forward to because I don't see them very often. It's my younger DNephew's birthday and we will also share my DS5's birthday celebrations, so I will do cake as well for dessert for them.
Work is busy and I am enjoying it but it is harder to get things done at home - need to look at some better routines.
Wishing you all a super day!

Good Morning Elizabeth & those to come later, Elizabeth HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DNEPHEW & DS! (I can't believe he's 5)  Medusa HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO DD TOO I'm up early (didn't sleep much) plus DH was up at 3am for an early start. Today I'd like to vacuum & mop but need to do a good PUPA first. Between my DDad & DS, there's an exploded hotspot on every available surface (also, I'm slacking!)  I'll go for a walk with DMum first then tackle it. wishing you all a happy day  |

Good Morning Lovely Ladies
Feeling a little MIA for the last few days.
Sunday I was home alone for most of the day
Monday was DH day off and again we spent the day at home (basic's done)
Tuesday DD's and I went an hour away to a huge Westfield's shopping Mall to look for DDsoontobe21 's BDay presents. Hit the mother load at ValleyGirl (DD's favourite shop), had lunch at LoneStar and DD17 and I got a couple of on sale things too.
Today I want to get the house ship shape ready for DD's 21st. It's not the full production that the 18th's are, just friends, sausage sizzle and probably 'beer pong' in the garage lol. Just want the place tidy, you know.
I am planning to call 'ALL HANDS ON DECK' for 30 to 60mins and get the girls to chip in with some decluttering and cleaning, I don't do it often but they can be pretty good when they know there is an event coming. DD20 is always great when it's something for someone else and I am hoping DD17 will return the favour this time around (she has her 18th coming up in January, so she should keep that in mind).
Tomorrow is a DMum day, then Friday will be shopping for the Party and Saturday is Party Day (her birthday is actually next week).
Today is also our 26th Wedding Anniversary. We are going out to a lovely Seafood place overlooking the harbour, and have decided we are getting a new mattress to celebrate the occasion. DH thinks it will fix all his aches and pains (I don't think so, we are just hurtling towards 50 and a new mattress won't fix that lol)
Ok, time to get dressed to workout gear and get moving. It's cold this morning, so I'm hoping my Morning Routine will warm the bones up a little. Room by Room PUPA and ready for vacuuming and a Load a Day started. Ready...Set...GO!!!!
Wishing you all a Wonderful Wednesday xoxo

 Hi Everyone
Elizabeth, how nice to have a BBQ with your DNiblings (I saw this word on fb this week-referring to nephews and nieces -isnt it cute ) You are doing so well working in the school holidays!! Elasti- good to see you are going for walks and its much harder keeping up with things with extra people in the house and you need to just sit and visit with them too. Shellie- good to hear you’ve got the b’day presents worked out and you are so organized for the party. "Hurtling towards 50” made me LOL- Time just goes soo fast.
Its a warm day to today the sun is out but its been raining a bit and I can hear thunder-weird! Have no idea what to wear lol
I have a busy day today. I haven’t spent much time with DD30 as Ive worked 3 Wednesdays and last Wednesday i had to go to DMs. DD30 had a haircut yesterday that i think is really nice but she hates so she wants to buy a couple of hats. So we are shopping and doing lunch. It suits her better to leave by 10AM so DGD can still nap this afternoon. I need to wash, dry and straighten my hair. Id prefer to do it Thursdays but I always have to leave early for work -tomorrow at 6.10AM  Its also my WHB day and I feel i should help out a bit at the rental property. We are having a DF help who doesn’t even want to be paid- but DH will have to help him out with some things. DH will get there at 4pm so I will probably help for a couple of hours then.
So the plan...
WEDNESDAY
Make bed, load dark washing on, vacuum and mop half the house (the half where others see ), shower, wash, dry and straighten my hair, dress and makeup
Go out with DD30 and have lunch
Bring in mail and bins, hang out washing, change into old clothes
Do I have time to vacuum and mop the rest of the house??-
Work at rental for a couple of hours- nope no time- shopped too long
cook dinner, prepare lunch for tomorrow, take out meat for dinner tomorrow
Dinner, dishes, feed DDog
Do I need to finish vacuuming and mopping or put away vacuum, mop and bucket
Collapse in a heap and have an early night!!
Have a Great Day Ladies!! x x
