    My M.A.C.A.W challenge this week is..............(to be in bed by 11pm from last week) and be up before 8am - Done M

    my tasks for this week
    1. get birthday presie for nephew
    2. [STRIKE]make freezer inventory[/STRIKE]
    3. list christmas presents already bought
    4. meal plan (after no.2)
    5. figure out how to make proper bread! (no packet mixes left:eek: )
    6. finish writing up budget book
    7. [STRIKE]send bras to breasttalk[/STRIKE] ready to post tomorrow
    I have set myself 7 tasks for this week - at a rate of 1 per day that is not much - these must be done this week.

    on top of these tasks if I get through my chores then I will be doing more ebay/amazon and any other decluttering tidying that I can manage!!!!!
    *****************************
    Ok I have 'sort of' defrosted the freezer - i should have thought about it this morning and switched it off to do it properly but forgot!! so have emptied each drawer and washed them out and sorted all the food into some kind of order!! Its not that old so isnt too bad - will have to do a full defrost before christmas.
    Still have floor and kickboards to do and will do them once i have had a wee rest.

    now I am going to do some ebay and amazon as I am a bit pooped so will be sitting down for a while but may well do it as HHcs!

    Peace will be mine

    ok, in mmy short HHC i have hoovered the three rugs from the caravan and taken them up to the attic, also took the folding table, some summer toys and one of the radiators up to the attic, 4 trips in all, and i have hoovered right through downstairs. i forgot to say i cleaned the kichen window, inside and out this morning. So i think thats not too bad(for me!!!).

    Flyladies flying well today I see.

    Well done Toots on getting down to the listings - never fun but worth it when the item leaves your house and the cash comes in.

    I've hoovered all of downstairs - need HHC of wiping round when I get back from school run.

    Just going to find and update my list.
