Hi Toots :hello: It must have been frustrating seeing everyone chattering away and not being able to join in! Mind you.. Valli's been working hard all day, so she's had to do a LOT of posting this evening to make up for it

Glad the hospital went OK - and hour late sounds pretty normal. I always try to remember to take good book! Fingers crossed the next lot of treatment goes well.

I only have wooden pegs too. Think of them as being greener than the pretty plastic ones

Today's list:

Tuesday Chuck - Living Room, Hall and Stairs
Level 1
Vacuum through the living room, hall and stairs DONE
Level 2
Dusting, even if around everything DONE
Remove clutter making sure stairs especially are safe You think I’m brave enough to have clutter after a month of this thread?! I put away the bulk buy of recycled loo paper that was delivered the other day… I just need to find a home for the recycled kitchen roll that came with it!
Clean windows and all glass.. including the tv screen Still clean
Clear the mantel and only put back the items which are supposed to be there.. and that doesn't include letters, keys or other treasure! DONE
Level 3
Wipe and water plants DONE
Put all your hotspots in one pile and work your way through it.. Hotspots all migrated to study where they belong!
Vacuum under furniture you can manage to move without hurting yourself DONE
Extra Mission: Pick one or more of the following tasks –

1. Filing.. find a pile and file it Well, moved it to the study…
2. Wipe down any paintwork that needs it. All done last week, and still looking lovely and shiny!
3. Binbag dance.. Get a binbag.. fill it and bin it!!! Nothing to fill it with… although I will start on the sitting room bookshelves soon
4. HHI (did someone mention they needed one?) DONE

AND... the window cleaner came today!

Not sure I'll get much done tomorrow... I may have trouble getting up in the morning (I've just see the time!), and I have a full day in the office followed by a houseful for the evening.

Night night all xxx

Morning all

Another day, another dollar. It feels very autumnal here this morning. I'm just waiting for the forecast on the radio before I decide what to wear today. Layers are normally in order as my office can get very hot with all the equipment in it but I need to know the termperatures to determine the DEPTH of the layers!

Have a good day - will catch up with y'all laters.

:hello:

Morning all.

As the kids are back at school today:D and now that i only have little gremlin to occupy, the house should start to pick up again now:rolleyes: , although i have been doing my flying i haven't been as thorough as i didn't want to make their lives a misery(she says):p so now its onwards and upwards......so for my first day back at full on flying i am gonna go round the house when i get back from school and see what needs to be done. I was gonna go to town but i am going tomorrow now as its much quieter on a thursday as there is no market.

My mil is coming up today so i should be alright to get some work done upstairs while she entertains little man then hopefully have a good clean up down here. I feel i need to do an all through sweep to get me back in fully and give me my motivation, iyswim xx

Tooti its a nightmare when the connection goes down. we went 2 weeks not so long back and i thought i had lost my voice so to speak. Stardrops on my list xx

Right then ladies have a good day and hopefully now i shall have more time to actually keep up with the posts...:D

On the keys front I personally wouldn't take them to bed. If someone is mad enough to break in, they could be mad enough to do anything nasty to get your bag or keys. The car can be replaced. I remember reading that a lot of break-ins are mainly to get car keys. Not just fancy new cars, old bangers are worth a lot of money now in scrap metal.

I agree - I leave mine haning in the kitchen - I'd rather they found them, took the car and went than stayed in the house looking for them.
