    Just been catching up with last weeks thread and sat nodding at Flower's posts, that is the exact description of how I feel a lot of the time. There seems so much to do so why on earth don't I just get up and do it! Almost tempted to do 5 min chunks never mind 13 or 30 mins :eek:

    I seriously need to get organised for Christmas, hardly got anything for W and not a lot for Miss A and that is before I start on the rest of the family. There are so many things on my mind that I am constantly frgetting things hence the saucepan is overflowing BIG time.

    Just heard the TD stop so I am going to empty that, make a sandwich and pair soe socks whilst eating.

    SS will pass on your message ;)

    Afternoon all, and thanks for the welcomes :hello:
    Too windy and rainy for outside stuff so I've had no excuses not to get on with the kitchen. Quite pleased with results so far.

    I've wrapped all the Christmas stuff now. Loads of little bits to go in baskets for my three, mostly toiletries but a few other bits. I got wicker wastepaper baskets from Asda for a pound each so they can be used after. Not put them in the baskets yet though because I need to keep it in a box to go in the loft for a couple of weeks yet. I managed to do half of it standing up and half sitting down just to ease my back a bit. So glad that's done! All I need now is some cash for two people and that's it. I've been buying a few bits of foodstuff gradually (pickles and puddings etc) and I've made my cake.

    I am so skint now!

    Oh, and I emptied all the indoor bins and put stuff in the recycling crate/bin.

    Still raining.


    Welcome to the newbies btw :)

    Oh no Pink Fairy, what a pain! *hugs* Because my worktops are full of stuff at the moment today I have:

    DW - emptied and filled
    Shelves emptied and moved out of my study
    6 work shirts ironed

    Hmmm was sure I'd done more :rotfl:

  • Well since my last post I have taken the doggie out & got totally soaked & nearly blown away:( also posted 2 Amazon parcels though, so that's a bonus:rotfl:
    But nevermind the WM finished & the TD is now on.

    Must try & list somethings on ebay this afternoon.

    I believe I also have to put one of these :xmastree: so Pigpen sees me :wave:
