Coming up next.......Like the WIT thread, this is a place to list the jobs you want (need!) to get done next. This can be a list of 3, or it could be just 1 single job. It could also be all the jobs you want to get done by the end of today! Whatever works for you!
You can come back and check off what you've done or just refer to it whilst you work, and not post again. You can cheer on others and ask for support, or you can just lurk and get inspired by others achievements. Again, whatever works for you!

thedreadedknock, lovely to see you, but I'm sorry things at home aren't going so well. Are you and the children still working to the same timetable as dh's shifts, or something a little more standard? Enjoy your break, recharge, and maybe come up with a forward moving plan? RoadRunner, I hope that you had a better night last night and that your cold has improved a bit for today. I had a good nights sleep, can't remember the last one where I have no memories of waking to move and get more comfortable several times a night. I heard Rover getting ready to come up' he walks around sort of clucking softly. Then as predicted he came and lay down my back for a while, he's pretty heavy right now, over 5 kilos. When he got off to go and sleep on the bed I heard dd's alarm which goes off 5 mins before mine, so I guess it was about 6.25-6.30 that he came up, and I can live with that! We had ground floor power yesterday so I got plenty of laundry done, though not what I had planned to do as dd decided to have a big sort out of baby doll clothes, and we washed, dried, and sorted / downsized them all, meaning that I did pastels and whites. She spent hours doing homework, ds spent a long time sorting what I'd asked him to. He was disappointed not to be able to go shopping - he's desperate for a new Disney Infinity figure and has pocket money - but was placated with PS3 time as a reward for tidying. Rest of the house had no power for most of the afternoon, so no lights, Internet and no heating as that circuit has the boiler on it. I tried every fuse in turn and could not isolate the problem one. Then tried every fuse except one across the board and that was even less conclusive. Dh managed to work out it was the sump pump which drains outside where we are renovating but haven't yet been able to get proper drainage in to stop our barn / stable / underpinning (house has no foundations) from getting flooded / damp. Seems the outlet pipe had frozen, causing it to overheat and intermittently fuse the board. Seems ok now, so hopefully that was the problem, though dh thinks there's an earthing issue going on somewhere with the main fuse for that circuit too. Anyway...!

lesaulerouge , glad that you got your fuse problem fixed and WTG to your DD for downsizing and your DS for sorting. It is amazing how getting our children to be responsible ends up causing us to have more work, well I guess not more work just unplanned work in the moment that shift our plans. Good work this morning. I am still sick woke up at 3:30 and then feel back to sleep in the chair around 5:30 until about 6:15, I should have been doing "stuff" but my poor stopped up sinus just would not let me think. I need a magic pill that will keep me going from now until about 9:00, but I am already thinking about crawling into bed when I get off work. TADAHead to toe Breakfast Packed Lunch DS Clothes Called DH to feed bunnies and kitties -- I left and forgot TODOSetup for class 1 Setup for class 2 Decided what to do with class 3 -- we lose computers today after my 2nd class of the day. Setup Testing for class 3 Call Dentist -- Monday EVAAS
