    Posting first and reading after, I'm miles behind!

    Two loads of washing done, one of DH's clothes and one of bedding from DD1's where he is dog-sitting. Hung out on the line for a few hours and I've just brought it in and draped it round the radiators.

    Plumber came back today and replaced a tile in the bathroom and sealed round the pipe so hopefully it won't come off again.

    Vacuumed right through downstairs.

    Caught up with Gray's Anatomy and Miss Marple. I'm going to try that new series tonight, Demons. I like a bit of vampire action ;)

    Now I can catch up in between turning the washing over on the radiators.

    Hope everyone's OK and welcome to any newbies today.

    Pigpen what a great photo with the santa, she looks over the moon with it!
    juliejim well done on the cycling, I've only managed 20 minute bursts on mine since I started again last year

    In my HHC we got carried away, well I did, inc getting a little cross due to the lack of help (which DP ignored and continued playing with his car) I did get a lot done and help off the boys. Sitting room all toys boxed, 2 bags of rubbish ditched (recycle stuff sorted) another bag on it's way. Kitchen finished DW/WM emptied and refilled, under sofas swiped (so tempted to remove the legs so stuff can't get under it!!!) spuds peeled for tea, games into box, 6 carriers from car emptied/sorted. See once I am up I am up :rotfl: and do quite a bit but it's giving me grief now so have sat down.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    That is why I knew the huge chocolate santa with a the rather large price tag (£50 IF I hadn't had codes and cashback etc) was worth it! 1.6Kg it weighed.. it has all been scoffed!

    That's a good point AnW'sMum...just got to get him to ask asap now! I can't see any point in hanging around waiting to ask. He's happy to wait, I want it done yesterday :rotfl: Do you want to come and help my DD1 with her room?

    I'll send Miss A to help! Once she gets going she is quite good at it, might take a while but she plods on, puts me to shame at times.

    If you aren't bothered about NYE/D then get Mr G to volunteer for that in exchange for Christmas off ;)

    Don't suppose I've got much choice really...

    ... got the washing in off the line... it hadn't dried... it had frozen :eek: so I had to let the mattress topper defrost before I could get it into the TD!

    I'd better empty the hoover so I can keep on using it!

    Do you start on Mondays??
    Can I put myself down as a very new newbie?? My house is a tip!! And everyone I know has to call me 2 hours before if they want to come round so I can quickly clear up!!
    I tend to spend too much time thinking and reading about doing stuff than actually doing it!!
    Made it - 15 years married!! Finally!! xx:beer:
