:eek: Oh. My. Word. :eek:
When I finally kicked myself into doing this I was *ashamed*, yey verily was I ashamed, at the amount of dust that came out from under my bed. It's tasks like this that make me wish I didn't have a bagless vacuum cleaner. Watching that dust whizz round and round (and then worse, STOP whizzing round cause it was too full!) has made me faintly ill....
However....there is now NOTHING under my bed apart from my suitcases, one inside the other, and even they have been vacuumed to within an inch of their lives.
::wipes forehead and goes off to make :coffee: ::
you go girl!!!
you deserve a nice cuppa after that
(you should have seen what it was like under there....)Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last0 -
Oh dear - I have had to take all the clean washing out of the study to hang up the latest loads (loads - multiple, including some sheets, and the bathroom mats) but I put all the clean washing on my (freshly made) bed and now have emptied the top of our wardrobe, to sort. I want to go to bed but have to put away all the clean washing, sort the linen from the top of the cupboard, and hang up the last load of washingI refuse to enter a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent:rolleyes:0

Oi!!!!
(Ok, ok.....mrsgnomey was there and *did* nearly disappear in the dust cloud that happened when I dragged something out from under the bed to lend to her. We thought there'd been an eclipse.....)
It's gone now, ok? :rotfl:0 -

Rach - no I won't kick you. What I will say is don't do the online stuff. Plan your menu tomorrow morning then take a lunch break and see what you can pick up at any local market. Then get make a date with OH to go visit your nearest supermarket on Saturday. Your reward will be a latte (or whatever) each at starbucks (or whereever afterwards!)I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

Will reward myself with a bath and pamper later if I CBA
DS2 still not asleep - usually he's out by 6.30 He's been playing in his cot for 2 hours by himself, his brother fell asleep ages ago. He was happy but is starting to get wound up now, I have refilled his drink, given him a cuddle - may go up and give him some [STRIKE]brandy[/STRIKE] ibuprofen in a minute in case it's teething/eczema.
Oh the joys...
Will post my still to do tonight list and tomorrow's after I've dosed up the Asbo-tot
