    Hmmm was impressed that I was actually eating breakfast and I've just seen it's lunchtime :rotfl:

    So far today I have:

    Emptied dishwasher
    Filled dishwasher and put it on
    Folded a huge basket of clothes
    Hung some wet washing out
    Put away rack of dry washing up
    Washed a load of washing
    Cleaned the sink as it was skanky

    Getting there! Thinking about having people around for tea tonight as I'd cook cottage pie, but I'm not sure what to serve with it.
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

    I can now get as far as the bathroom, but next task is to clear the bookcase at the top of the stairs (I've been putting homeless stuff on it) so I can bring it down to go in the garage,
    Are you turning the garage into a library?
    Don't laugh - I knew someone who bought a house with a double garage and had half of it shelved to use as an overflow library.

    Just watched Jonathon Creek on iplayer on the lap top in the kitchen. I was good and did myself a nice big breakfast, washed up and deep cleaned the hob whilst it was on.

    Absolutely cracking stuff!

    Are you turning the garage into a library?

    Sadly not... it leaks :rolleyes: , but I store all my unwanted junk there until I work out what to do with it. I think I might send this back to my parents house, along with a load of books, as there's room in my old bedroom there for it, so as long as I move somewhere bigger before they move somewhere smaller, I'll be fine!

    Laundry hung up... bookcase cleared & moved into garage. Think I might set the DW off before hoovering upstairs, and when that's done I'll brave the study :eek: as it looks a bit like Supergirl's DDs' room :o

    Hi Rach - 4 packs of the well known brand (name escapes me) are supposedly half price from 2nd Jan only mine werent :mad: . Its only that we put all our spends on the computer that I noticed otherwise I wouldnt.

    For this reason I always check the receipt of the way out of the shop. DH got used to me saying 'customer services' as he knew I would be claiming my 2p overcharge back :rotfl::rotfl: I loathe having to go back anywhere to exchange or get a refund hence checking before we leave.
