Today's Blurb

This morning after me and LMS dropped Little Prince off at school we planned to get straight on with more de-cluttering! But LMS wanted a shower and I wanted to get some emails replied to, so we said we would give ourselves an hour and then start, great plan huh?? I was pottering around getting some things tidied up and putting some of Little Prince's books back on the now fixed (thank you Mr Messy) bookshelves, when I heard a faint "Mum." I asked LMS what she wanted but she didn't reply, so I thought I must have been mistaken, until a dripping wet and grumpy LMS arrived in the hall!! "The shower's making a horrible smell and there's white smoke coming out of it!" Oh boy!!! Being totally non-technical my only solution was to call our handyman and tell LMS to take a bath instead!! Handyman can't get round till tomorrow, but said its probably broken - you think?!?! I'm supposed to be looking for the receipt, as he only fitted it a few months ago!! Hopefully we will just be able to take it back and get a replacement as it shouldn't have broken this quickly!!!

Once LMS was washed and dressed she decided she was hungry and would cook herself some garlic bread, for breakfast?!?! Half way through cooking the oven flashed a bright light and has now gone off completely!!! She has been banned from touching any and all technology throughout the house!!! She's dangerous!!!!

We decided that something was telling us we should get on with the de-cluttering we were putting off and finally got round to it! We tackled mine and Mr Messy's room and I've now remembered why I hate tidying up after him!!! He leaves things lying around for YEARS, and yes I refuse to pick up after him and leave it there!!! We are as childish as each other about this lol. We filled a bin bag with cr*p that he's left lying around!!! And we still haven't finished!!!! But being the dedicated and motivated team that we are, we decided to have a break :-) Back to work in a mo, to try and get some more done before Little Prince gets back from school.

UPDATE: I just thought to ask LMS to try the switched fuse box thingie and see if the oven switch was off on there - and it was, its now back on and working :-) No idea what the problem was!!!! We might still be on chippie for tea!!!

UPDATE: Drama Teen is a twit!! She was just reading my blog and said "oh you've noticed the shower is broken!" Apparently she's known for days and just didn't bother saying anything!!! Aaaargh!!! Why me?!?!?
