Menolly - well done on the premium bonds win!
Greenbee- how nice - a wedding in the family!
Johanne - that's spooky behaviour on the part of X - wonder what he's after..
Sarahsh - hoping you and yours get into fine fettle this week

And welcome new people

I'm certainly on the mend. Feeling a lot better this morning and work tomorrow is now a probability. I promise not to do too much today. I do need to do some shopping and a walk is definitely in order to clear the head. Apart from that, I'll potter.

Morning all,

Lots of positive vibes for you and your family SarahShattered, hope everyone is well this week:D

Who had the broken tooth? Was it Holly?? Hope you get it fixed.
Are you feeling any better Soappie? Edit just read you post, glad you're feeling better.
Congratulations Lou, glad the day went so well.
Johanne, dont be fooled by the cunning of the male species! He'll be after something no doubt, but then i'm just cynical:o

Need to go jump in the shower, have a busy week, lots of study needed!

PF you are meant to be on light duties - thats an aaaawwwfully long list!!!

I................... know.........but...............I'm..................doing.................a...........
bit.......at..............a..............time!

Dailies -
SS Kitchen, Bathroom, Shower room
Make beds
[STRIKE]DW,[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]WM, BM, CM[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Feed dogs, cats and fish[/STRIKE]
Groom dogs and cats
Walk dogs - I may be up to going round the block (1st time in a month)

Also want to do what I can from here:
Manic Monday - Kitchen, Utility and Dining Room/Area
Level One
Clean floors in these areas
Level Two
Wipe down surfaces
Wipe kitchen cupboard fronts and kickboards
Wipe down fronts of major appliances (cooker, fridge, freezer etc) and inside the microwave
Level Three
Dust any extra furniture in dining area, checking for cobwebs on way round
Clean washer drawer, filters on the dryer, dishwasher and cooker hood filters
Clean the oven if missed last week or it needs it
Extra tasks - if you want to do more:
Wipe window sills and clean windows in these rooms
Wipe down any tiles and shine those taps, a toothbrush is great for cleaning away the gunk!
Empty one shelf (or the top of a cupboard) clean it, clean what's on it and put it all back
Clean out and organize one cupboard, more if you like
Wipe & replace small appliances like kettle, toaster etc (wipe under too, especially the toaster!)

I also need to carry on putting the books back on the shelves that came downstairs today. Every time I go upstairs, (or DS does) I bring back a few more books!

DS has the doc at 8.30 then school for one lesson so to-ing and fro-ing with him.

Got to go to town for a few bits, but am trying to go with the "shop like your granny used to" scheme.

May go for paint for the base coat in the lounge as well. If DH gets ceiling done, he can begin the walls later!

Sammy_girl - welcome! :hello: We're a friendly bunch and you'll learn to [STRIKE]hate[/STRIKE] love us for keeping you motivated. (And that's why I put my pets on my dailies list. :rotfl:)
And remember what Toots said "Your home didnt get in a mess overnight so dont expect it to get tidy overnight!!! baby steps is the way to do it - do NOt try to do it all at once - you will wear yourself out and sicken yourself too (believe me - we've all done!)"
Zoey - like Toots said, read the first post again and go steady to start with. And hope things are a little brighter this morning, hun!

Chunky - all the best for Wednesday

Fedupandskint - welcome! :hello: (another [STRIKE]victim[/STRIKE] friend) Get that ironing done! (15 minutes at a time and it will be gone. )

Tigerlee - welcome! :hello:


Valli - hope the blood test results help sort out the tiredness

Holly - how is the tooth, hun?
Off to docs - will catch up with you later!

Is it supposed to actually get better post-pregnancy then? My last one was born nearly 4 years ago and I don't think my brain has recovered yet :rotfl:. Actually I used to be a member of Mensa, but I don't think I'd get anywhere near qualifying for that these days. :rolleyes:
