Had my bath, run about with the hoover and remade my bed.
Have also put some makeup on to hide the fact i look like death walking:D Need to go to the body shop before work as they have their coconut body butter half price.

Have a nice evening everyone.

Back from HHC - all 4 kitchen drawers emptied and cleaned, contents sorted and replaced tidily or binned as appropriate! Also washed up.

Going for another HHC 3:00 - 3:30 to finish kitchen and hopefully bathroom! I'm on a mission

Greenbee.. edit out of that list the things you have absolutely no intention of doing.. and i din't mean the whole lot.. it is not realistic to have such an enormous list and it is really demoralising when it never gets shorter.. Mine is getting LONGER!! lol.. but leave on the things you HAVE to do and the ones you will do IF you have time and you can come back and find other things to add if you finish those. You know it makes sense!!

pigpen

Frods.. I'll be in.. I'll get the laundry sorted.. uniforms in.. and a general S&S, bread production, DW etc... All the 'daily' stuff that I NEVER seem to get ahead of!

I have edited them out... note no freecycling etc! It is getting shorter, and it's A LOT shorter than my work to do list, which starts with 17 contracts that need reading by Monday (why do you think I'm making such an effort here :rolleyes: ).

Froddy - I'm in for 3pm

froddington

Ok - pigpen, toots, greenbee and anyone else who's in for the HHC ......


Ready, Steady, Go .....

See you in half an hour

Edit it some more!! You don't NEED to clean one electrical appliance thoroughly.. it can wait while next week.. it will ALL be coming back round.. The drawer crumbs can wait! Drop the childrens rooms entirely.. they just mess them up again... and if a spare room isn't used that can wait too. Don't sort any cupboards.... see.. easy.. it WILL be back next week I'll make sure of it!! lol...

I just don't want to you to be overwhelmed by it all and run and hide.. lol

Toots.. much nicer list there.. I am trying to delegate some of mine..

Only here because I am uploading carp on ebay.. editted some old listings and whizzed them on..
