    K peeled the spuds and moved the frozen tea stuff - it wasn't defrosting in the kitchen.

    Found a notebook and made a start on my xmas food list seeing as pigpen had the very good idea of buying something for a xmas food hamper on the squeakend list. Will buy a few things a week or whenever I see them on special somewhere. We don't usually eat anymore than normal tbh so not that much extra to buy.

    Right, I'm off to nanas with littleys

    Traaaaaaaaaa :wave:

    I have now:

    Cleaned washing line
    Bedding drying on line (sorry, wooden pegs :o )
    Towels in WM
    Kitchen bin emptied & cleaned
    Top shelf of corner unit emptied, cleaned and put back
    One third of kitchen surface cleared and wiped
    Taken a call from my mum who reminded me to call my dad as its his birthday... and I realised I haven't posted his card :o

    Now have some work stuff to check, then back to getting the house under control!

    Right after having a few fights with the hoover I managed to use the attachments although I still don't know how you're supposed to store them - I'll let DH figure that one out!
    Cleaned the skirting boards in the DR
    Dried and put away the clean dishes that had already been done
    Washed, dried and put away the rest of the dishes includuing the big fruit bowl and plate out of the DR
    Filled fruit bowl full of fruit again.

    Why do I let DH go and do the food shopping? He's bought pate which I love but if I start eating pate on toast I won't stop which will not do my diet any good. He's also bought 2 lots of biscuits - 1 lot being chocolate malted milk - I've already eaten 3. If it's not in the house it doesn't bother me so I don't buy it!

    Anyway, the kids are complaining that they're hungry so I supposed I'd better find them some dinner.

    Catch you later

    It's taken 20 minutes to get the WM filled and switched on and to water DS, but here is what my HHC did to my list. I still can't stop saying how amazing it is, I've spent a week doing little other than my dailies and the washing but it's only taken me one challenge to finish one room:j
