    Afternoon all,
    Hugs to everyone who needs one. Are we all organised then ? We are ok, baking day tomorrow (truffles, tablet, mince pies, Christmas cakey thing). Been out to Tesco today, busy but friendly (everyone kept saying sorry lol).
    Did all my Tuesday cleaning yesterday so today just dailies like WM, folding etc. Spag bol made for tea too (well just need to cook some pasta), and made two loaves for next couple of days.
    Hope all are well.

    Afternoon all

    Two loads of washing done, including my bedding, and strewn round indoors.

    DD2's three piece suite and desk picked up and taken away. Living room polished and vacuumed, hallway and kitchen vacuumed, and DD2's bedroom floor vacuumed. Again.

    Went to shops and bought wine for Christmas Day.
