I have a problem - I've got hardly anything left on my list :eek: this is sooooo unlike me and I can only blame you all for getting me sorted :rotfl:

list looks like this now:
Update 2009 present list
[strike]Tidy bottom of airing cupboard[/strike]
Clean kitchen windows - tomorrow's pledge :eek:
Find floor in spare room (without dumping it on the bed)

**ducks as people throw large heavy things**
Seriously though a huge thank you to everyone.
I'm normally hiding under the duvet, stressed to bits and feeling really low by now. OH is worried as the house looks so tidy and that he's going to get his arms ripped off if he messes up the airing cupboard
Now off to find things to put on my list so I don't worry about not having a list......................... no 1 find the plot:D

LOL:rotfl: :rotfl: well i'm not as organised as you but i am organised for once:rolleyes: and yes i blame you all too!:rotfl: :rotfl: lol

ah thanks mel - yes I'm coming round to the idea - cos he'll get his first sleep in in months on christmas eve but he will not get (or want) a sleep in on christmas day (for obvious reasons).

So here's a question:
How do all you people who shop so early for next christmas do it???
I really want to do this but I never know what I am going to buy people! Do you second guess what people might want or do you get smelly sets that would suit anyone and decide nearer the time who to give it to? Please let me know as I really do want to start this up, especially as I think the jan sales will be pretty good!?
