    :T Vivw and Tilli-Tot, hope your HHC was productive.

    I hoovered lounge and hall, wiped kitchen surfaces (those uncluttered areas...oops)
    Then put some washing on/sorted some drying bits
    Sorted some bits for the local cats protection league (old towels and stuff)
    And now am enjoying a glass of squash, quite tired from that burst but am now looking a tidier house.

    Tilli-Tot, I'm on a 'bit' of a roll, will do another HHC at 2.45.

  • Just sent DH to MrT and he has taken DS so a chance for a quick catch up and update.

    So far I have marked the mental and non cal papers for my year 8s and have the cal paper left to do. I have done the washing up wiped the work surfaces and cleaned the cooker. I will start cooking for the week when DH gets back. Then get the last pile for year 8 done.

    Toots you are right I am beginning to feel better with the marking out of the way.

    Crafty’s sig is inspiring me at the mo.

    Hi Liberty :j :wave: sorry I missed you earlier.

    Hope all is well with the pigpen babies and their mothers.

    I need to change DD now, she is singing so it must be squishy. Then must look busy when DH gets back. So will catch up later.

    Had the wraps for lunch and have just printed inserts for birthday cards for my two step daughters. Now need to go and put them in the cards and tidy the craft room
    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    Lots of stuff moved into the garage (and properly packed away) from both the study and utility room.

    Think I might have the rest of my lunch now, and maybe read for a bit before getting back to it!

    Well done irie on getting to grips with the marking :beer:

    Tilli - keep going while you've got the momentum going :T Same goes for you mineallmine :T

    Afternoon, thanks for all the good wishes everyone. LO is home safe and sound, still sounds like she's been smoking 60 a day though! She goes downhill really quickly but also bounces back really quickly once treated.
    We're all pretty knackered though, nice quiet day i think.

    Hi, couldn't quite sustain another HHC, more like 20mins. But overall 50 mins of cleaning, every little helps. But started another charity bag, put DW on again. Going to rest now, feel tired. Look forward to next week's list and getting on top of it all.

    It has just taken me 3 hours to install Office 2007, service pack 3, java update, and correct a number of errors on my computer :mad::mad:

    On the flying side : towels x2 are washed, 1 lot through the drier (I could see the seagulls and pigeons lined up on the roof opposite just waiting for me to put the washing out :mad::p:rotfl: ), cleaning cloths are currently in on a super wash (read : the works at 60 then an extra quick daily wash to get all the cleaners out of them), I've added veg to the meatballs in the slowcooker, and I've had lunch. :rolleyes:

    Time to attempt to tackle my NVQ work although DD is due back anytime :wall: :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!
