Morning all,
a shiny new list.
I went a bit OTT yesterday cleaning as I knew time would be restricted this week- but at least I won't feel so bad not doing all the things this week As a result though back is , hence the M.A.C.A.W involves doing my exercises.
Better go get DS organised.
Best wishes for now and hugs to all who want one.

Morning OrkneyStar - hope you're back does not play you up too much today...

Just had to say, love your new avatar - presume its your DS - whats his name?

Feeling very today - can't seem to get in gear - nose is running too (wish it would hurry up and go!) so not sure if coming down with something, god, hope not, don't need that at the moment...

Thanks Denise- feel like curling up in bed but have DS class today. Hope you don't feel too rough as well.
Yes the avatar is my DS- known to his friends as DJ . That was him a month or so ago!
Ok, really better get off and get organised.
Catch up with you all soon.

Morning lads and lasses

I am feeling rough, really rough, I don't get ill and I don't do ill.

I am going to concentrate on paperwork for now as at least I will feel I am doing something.

BTW I got a dodgy Paypal email this morning - I don't usually get these and I could have been fooled as I was listing bits yesterday - I know you are a savvy lot but think twice - Paypal never email you saying dear paypal user/member

Hi G&B - we often go to a local tyre place and they do what they call part worns, which are virtually brand new tyres - about £15-£25 each rather than £40+ - might be worth asking them (won't find those at kwikfit and chums though)

Do you need all of them changing or just the fronts/backs? I know it's best to have good tyres all round, but if you only need two, maybe it will give you chance to save for the other two (savings? ha! what's that? )

Thanks Denise, i plan on keeping the car for at least a couple more years so dont mind paying for new tyres that will last. Its only the front ones that need done thank goodness, back ones are fine.

I've just posted on the old thread sorry Pigpen!

My MACAW to read the WHOLE thread, then post!!

Morning ladies...and gent (DF is going to love that:) )

Will post my list next-thanks Pigpen. Orkney DF got home last night and also said I'd gone a bit Ott-he couldn't get over how clean the bathroom floor is.
I'm getting so up to date with everything that most of the kitchen was done. I've been trying to do the dishes whilst the cooking is going on and then S&S as part of my bedtime routine (sweep and mop included). The place is really not that big so if I've been deep cleaning, then wiping down is easy. Still, Im going to stick with the list as it works for me-really want to concentrate on the cupboards and HAVE to do a freezer inventory so I can menu plan.
Also, I downloaded desktop stickies last night so I did a list of generals that must be done this week...and then I'll put another with Pigpen's list. So I'll post my weekly list at the beginning of the week (for the [STRIKE]nagging[/STRIKE] encouraging element. And then each day I'll allocate to the daily list from that list.
I am feeling SOOOO proud of myself...
In keeping with this, my MACAW is going to be....stick to my lists.

Hope everyone has a fab week
