just wondering mudbath if you could set it to print all the odd pages first then put the paper in back to front and do all the even ones or something?

I've managed to tidy round
clean downstairs cloakroom
put all the clean laundry away
make a banana loaf

So not to bad.

I'm going to do the rest of the sewing machine jobs next so that I can put the machine away.

Thanks Mudbath and Valli for your replies. I guess I will just have to come on this thread a bit more often for encouragement. Im working tomorrow, so, im going to try to do quite a bit today, then tomorrow it will just be the usual S&S, and the same on Tuesday, From Wednesday onwards I can do it properly.

Jackie.

P.S How do you put a line through the things you have done., I know its something to do with the strike button, but whenever I press that it just says strike strike!

Jackie - you have to highlight the words you want to strike out first then press strike - it then puts strike at either end.

Just popping to Asda - I will be back shortly!

Thanks for the links, Kaz
Soappie - well done to your nephew!!
Tia - how's the business going?

Worked today - came home, folded three days worth of washing, kids helped with dinner, ate, washed dishes and wiped bench down (my MACAW for this week )

Tomorrow I'm up for jury duty. Am really excited cos I've never been called up before Should have time to walk the dogs and do a couple of loads of washing before I go.

DS3 & DS4 start their prelim exams tomorrow - are they studying . . . are they what?!?!?! Off to kick them off computers and send them to bed. Catch u all in the morning . . .

Jackie - quite simply we don't always get it done! !!ducks from whatever Pigpen has just thrown at me}. I'm fine at completing lists until life happens which it invariably does - children are ill, i've got exams, I have to work, I want to have a nervous break down but don't have time etc. For me, it's a case of little and often and a lot of support from people on here when i've (frequently) had enough! This week my house has gone to pot because I have exams tomorrow and hopefully i'll catch up next week. Just stick with level 1 and see how you go. Good luck!

So far today i've done another bed in the garden. I'm just doing little bits at a time so it's not so daunting. I've also got a washing load on the line.

At the moment i'm printing out the 600 pages of casestudies. I've got to print one page at a time as i'm doing it back to back to save paper. It's taking forever! Is there a quicker way when you have a bog standard computer like me? The sun is shining outside and I don't want to be at the computer. So far i've done 180 pages! :mad: xx

You could try this - set up to print all your odd pages latest first turn the pile over then set to print all your even pages! Double check the page order is ok

Didn't get this far in the thread! That's what I have just posted! Now I know it'll work!
