    Evening peeps

    Another new week and I'll try my best but I'm back at work - sobs as I shall miss you all dreadfully, sobs again - I mean I just caught up on this afternoons mutterings and you are all mad again, was it something in the water I missed.

    Welcome froddington - hope you have fun here and get something done as well :rotfl:

    Davgirl1 good luck for DS op 2moro

    Denise - nice to see you, did I miss you last week?

    Kazwookie - hope all goes as well as can be expected 2moro, will be thinking of you

    Dont know where today has gone - I actually went 8 hours without a cuppa or attempt to get near the computer but you cant see my efforts in the house :confused: and I havent even had my usual sunday vino :eek:
    • Have baked the ham (and had a lovely running buffet off it while it cooled :o ).
    • Cooked roast leg of sheep and all cleared away.
    • Blanched all the excess veg and froze.
    • Defrosted the small freezer on the landing and found another 9lb of blackcurrants :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry: .
    • Have sorted washing
    • Loaded Wm x 2
    • Loaded TD x 2
    • Loaded and emptied DW x 2
    • Walked doogie with DD and friend to the qwikemart
    • Took said friend home and did a circuit right round the town as road closed one way!
    Now think I'll start the blackcurrants so that tomorrow I can go on to make jam and cordial when I come in from work. Also need to iron work shirts and trousers - you'd think I might have done it during the week but not that organised! Also need to type up this darn food inventory so I can plan some meals to start using up stuff.

    Dont think I'll be back tonight so enjoy the rest of the evening
    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!
  • I'm in again. This will be my third week and my house is definitely looking a lot better even though I haven't done half the jobs listed. My aim this week is to reach level 3 most days and to do lots of decluttering.

    [:hello: Welcome Froddington (or should that be Frodders? What do you think, Piggers?)[/quote]


    I prefer Froddy for short pls :D

    And people seem to think I have autistic tendencies rather than OCD - but I won't go into all that here ...... :rolleyes:
