    Right, it's a work day today, so I'm having a frantic FLY hour (lunch time .. wassat then!) including updating here ... keeps the mind focussed anyway!

    I've de-oranged a little more of the grouting whilst in the shower.
    I've watered one rather sorry looking plant. Not sure if it's too late or not.

    From yesterday:

    I looked UP in the bathroom to see the most horrendous cobwebs ever. (Friday when I vacuum)
    My office is covered in dust due to DIY - doing currently, bit by bit
    [STRIKE]I have at least 6 massive piles of things to be dealt with in here (study), they all make me feel guilty, but not enough energy to actually tackle them .... so tomorrow I'm aiming to tackle one of them.[/STRIKE] - one down .... but many to go.
    [STRIKE]I also told myself I would clean the windows in my office when it came around this week ... we'll see, we'll see ... at least get them dusted I think
    [/STRIKE] - DONE :)

    My DH has put the most awful handprints on my hall door linings .... first thing you see when you enter the house ... NICE ... NOT! -This is his, all his, and to be put on tomorrow's list for him, him, him.
    [STRIKE]My DH has got paint all over a white towel ... thanks dear.[/STRIKE] - due to the soaking in soda crystals and washing, like is well again !

    Em - if the sausage rolls need using then that is your choice made.

    Just had another email deleting session so I am doing well with my MACAW.

    Going to put the couple of plants I brought this morning into pots and then have another cuppa - kids will be home in 5 minutes.
