  • All i've achieved this afternoon is decluttering a crunchie! Well, I couldn't leave it to go off, that would be wasteful. LOL

    My mini list for the next half hour:
    DW
    TD
    Prepare pizza
    scrub spuds & slice into wedges
    par boil wedges

    This may prove difficult with a toddler who doesn't want to leave my knee. mmmm *thinks outloud* biscuit in the highchair may buy me 10 mins.

    Mudbath I also agree it is an admin error, but a good job you noticed or it could have gone on for months.

    I have just cleaned, wait for it, the inside of 2 off my office windows!

    Hi all
    At long last its Friday afternoon! I'm really tired and the house is a mess...........
    Anyone care to join me in a HHC at 4.45pm?
    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.


  • dusty well done getting DS1 's room done - and you have a busy weekend as usual - Is your Nan happy to be where she is for rehab - and DH home on Sunday that will be good -apart from the washing he will bring!!!

    never got my coffee - I fell asleep and it went cold!!! I was knackered though!!!

    I will join you Viv but it will be a slow motion one for me!!!!

  • Mudbath – glad they are sorting things. Well done you for spotting it that quickly.
    Sunnygirl – positive vibes being sent for your SIL
    Johanne – ‘shift yourself’ vibes for OH
    Pigpen – all good wish vibes for your DS1 (and hugs for you)


    Felt much brighter after I told (bored) you all about my teeth so went off and did a tidy up in the LR. Cleared a lot of papers, magazine inserts etc.
  • My pages have gone funny colours - has it done this to anyone else????

    I have now cleared , cleaned and polished the mantle and the fireplace and everything on it! Cleaned all my candle holders and filled up the tealight holder.

    mudbath you often say that you have lit smelly candles and the house smells nice - I never get that - what make and scent of candles do you use if you dont mind me asking - maybe mine are too cheap!!
