I've taken the cat to the vet for her booster.

Cleaned up garden and bagged up stuff for bin day tomorrow.

Emptied indoor bins.

Vacuumed right through downstairs and done the stairs and landing.

Painted one side of another shelf.

Yay I have made progress and feel well chuffed. I let the side down yesterday so have to catch up on a lot today.

WM cleaned inside and out and as I type is still on clean wash with Stardrops
Washed the front and door of Dryer and defluffed it,
Cleared Clutter from under the table,
Swept the Floor,
Filled 1 bin bag and 1 box with rubbish,
Pulled out Dryer, oven and fridge and swepted/mopped behind them,

Thats it for now lol all this is in the kitchen, my mother has been a lazy trout and let me struggle on. She has now decided that when most of it is finshed to go in and do a little bit to say that she helped grrrrrrrrrrrrr. Oven not cleaned as I have decided that my dad can do this at the weekend lol.

Hugs and stuff to everyone,

Zoey

Beccah how did your oven shevles turn out?

Bedroom tidy, one child bed stripped.

Going to make a cake now and then do my ebay photos whilst it cooks

I'll let you know tomorrow Dusty, having a mad baking day today for little sis' birthday so decided that they shelves will need their bath tonight...for some reason I always end with cake batter on the shelves, despite none appearing to spill over.

Why oh why oh why did I get creative and deviate from the list??!!!!
Instead of cracking on with the list I wrote last night I decided to tackle the TOY CORNER which I have been putting off since before Christmas. I wanted them to be able to get to all their toys instead of getting bored with the few they could reach. Instead of waiting sensibly for a free day when the kids aren't here I started doing it an hour ago, my living room is now a bomb site and of course the little ones thought it was fantastic that mummy was getting all their toys out for them!
I have managed to chuck out a binbag full of broken toys but the corner is still full and not much more accessible than before, in fact, I have toys left over that won't fit there now, how does that work??!!
AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH
Must go and make them lunch now, then find somewhere for the toys that wouldn't fit back in the corner to go

Mudbath

Hiya
Sorry for the non flying post but the vets just phoned and it looks like she has cancer down her ear. I can't believe how sad I am. She's coming home this evening and we'll wait to see what type of cancer it is. Hopefully we'll get a bit longer with her as she's not in pain yet. I keep telling myself she's a cat but it doesn't help. Sorry but I just had to tell someone xx

Morning everyone,
Flower - don't you sleep?:eek:

Not at the moment it seems - I tried, went to bed at 10pm coz I was absolutly shattered, but was awake again at 11.30pm and then up again by 12.30 as just couldn't settle no matter how I tried. (I was like greenbee, seems it was a trend last night). was up at 4.30am day before and only had a little sleep in the afternoon and that was only because I sat down... So it's not even though I'm sleeping loads during the day... getting fed up with it now, can't seem to get body clock back to normal...

I'm off out now to finally get my shopping and those curtains... Another wash on now and kitchen tidied - just got to clean when I get back...

Toots, how you getting on today? do you need any kicking? :rotfl: (send one back if you do...)
