Oh dear - I've just cleaned my teeth with the kiddie tooothpaste (mmm strawberry), yesterday I nearly put the potty doings in the laundry basket, the day before that I nearly poured the kettle into the tea caddie...


Is anyone else doing daft things as we (ahem) multitask in our sleep-deprived 'where's the intravenous caffeine?' state?


And to think they let us drive cars.....

hmmmm...while I was writing this post this morning our eldest daughter (nearly three) got hold of my bright pink nail varnish and did her toe nails....


...the rest of her feet


her bottom

most of her right thigh

her pyjamas

Dad's vibrating massage chair.


Then I heard 'Mummmmmmyyyyyyy...I need some help!'


:-$

I still can't think about a couple of week's ago "but we just wanted to see what your make up looked like mummy......" incident on the beige carpets of our bedroom (and subsequent enormous bill) without weeping silently.


Driving scares me sometimes, I often forget why I am in the car at all......

I've walked home from morning school run with childrens coats and book bags still in my hands soooo many times.....and then in the afternoon remembered the children but left the poor dog tied to the school railings a few times.


Quite often get dogs & childrens names mixed up when calling them too.


Oh dear.

Believe ...


...it or not "we" do the same things too



LadyW**F says....


"How MANY times has this washing been through the machine..? "



I say.....


" Err.. has it "



*she frowns, I grin *




The other day whilst spraying myself with Avon "soft & gentle" dry oil


I opened my eye ( to check it was working ) whilst spraying my face


Ooooh that stung



"Oh, you have got one red eye "



"Yes, I DO know.....thank you..."



W**F

Not mummying as such but quite a few shopping incidents which i solely blame on hormones and tiredness due to children - scarily all in the last 2 months:


finishing sainsburys shop, paying for it, put kids in car, go to put shopping in boot and realise that i hadn't put any of the items (big weekly shop) in bags but all back in trolley separately.


finishing sainsburys shop, paying for it, put kids in car, put trolley back in trolley park, drive home, go to unpack and realise that i have left shopping in trolley - go back to sainsburys and go to security guard and luckily some kind man had handed in my trolley!!!


and the age old fav, go shopping, check out and realise wallet is at home - aghaghaghaghaghagh


oh the joys

    • We have had Tony and team do a number of repairs and decorative work over the past year in our Victorian terrace in Peckham. Most recently, they painted the majority of our house while we were on holiday, where they spent 12 hour days over two weeks working non stop to complete plastering, walls & ceilings, and woodwork paint on custom joinery. Tony communicated throughout but kept the end result a surprise. We returned to the most beautiful house decor, with the whole place spotless too. I would have no hesitation in recommending TDR, the work is always to an extremely high standard, well priced and I always trust Tony and his work. We will use TDR again for further work in our house. 
    • It's quite normal with chain shops that have a large real estate portfolio who are in the proverbial. When the writing is on the wall they know exactly how much they can afford to pay to keep a site open and the landlord then has a choice:  accept the lower rent or find a new tenant. Finding a new tenant sometimes means not getting any rent from an insolvent company, paying to clear their stuff out and giving the new tenant a rent free period to fit out their shop and establish themselves. It can be expensive for the landlord to refuse a rent reduction. I think this landlord has probably landed on their feet here though, getting Tesco interested. 
    • When I used to go to the one in Woodwarde road I found them expensive but not exceptional- They kept suggesting I have an acid treatment on my toenails which have a tendancy to become ingrown-I think it was many hundreds of pounds (about £400 5 or so years ago) when I found my current Podiatrist (who teaches at The Royal college of Podiatrists) he told me that A: that treatment was'nt foolproof and the nail could grow back and B: that he really did'nt reccomend it in my case. I also did'nt like how the charges at Woodwarde rd just kept getting higher and varied depending on whom was treating me.
