Another busy day

Another early start today, and last school run of the week. Took Charlie to meet my mum and sister for coffee at the local Waitrose, had a nice little chat together over a cappucino. Charlie has started trying to say my sisters name, but instead of Natalie it is coming out as Natty, which is quite sweet really. He wanted to go home with Mum, and as she was free today she said she'd have him. Got home to find Steve was ripping out all the old (and rubbish) sealant from around the bath so he could replace it and stop it leaking through onto the kitchen wall. Decided to get on with sorting out the 'Save Our Date' magnets for our wedding, and got as far as opening the pack, before I found other stuff that needed more urgent attention. Letters to write, send, bills to sort and then the milkman arrived. Bit embarrasing as my purse was empty, so will have to pay him next week.

Spoke to my sister about having my niece overnight next Friday, and she said she could as long as she behaved in the meantime....apparantly at Brownies she decided to cover her long blonde hair with soap suds when she should have been washing up! Why?? Who knows, she certainly doesn't!!

Managed to get to see Lucy finish her Cross Country County Comp, she came 2nd in her school for the girls, and for the county girls, she was 46th out of 180. We were so proud of her, and we were clapping so hard and yelling when she crossed the line. We stood with our friends and we were all shouting for our daughters. It was flipping cold there, but was well worth it. Got home just before the heavens opened.

Am so tired now, feel I've hardly stopped all day, Jess & Lucy will be out tomorrow with Dad, so just be 3 of us at home, will try and get as many jobs done as I can, but really need to take some time out too. Hopefully Charlie will sleep tonight and I won't have a repeat of last night when he ended up in our bed. First time in 7wks though, so I shouldn't complain.

Well, will get back to watching Alien, haven't paid much attention so really have no idea whats what.....may choose to have a giggle at the shopping channels instead!
