    AnW'smum - i've got my yellow daffadil marie curie pin that i'll wear on Thursday. Hugs to you and yours.

    We've eaten...i'm ready for bed!!! DH is doing the flying - he's nearly fixed the piano stool, he's removed the two bin bags of rubbish we bought down from the attic, he's sorted the recyling, he's cooked the dinner and now he's clearing up. See, flying is being done just not by me though I did help sort the conservatory earlier and that's totally habitable now.

    Hugs to all xx

    Level Two
    [strike]15 minutes floordrobe clearance[/strike] Not got one, can't do it :T
    [strike]Wash windows[/strike] Did all the front windows today - can't think how they got so grubby.....:eek:
    Vacuum floors

    Did a bit today, damp mopped the laminate floor in the lounge and cleaned all the windows in there and my bedroom. This was purely because I got up quite early and whilst inhaling the first cup of tea of the day the sun was streaming through the window showing up ALL the dirt. There's a lesson in there - stay in bed longer!:rotfl:

    Also finished the washing and have S+S the kitchen. Bed does need changing, so will do that and the rest of the list tomorrow night.

    Need to :

    Meal plan for this week (I'm having a "use up all the stuff you bought for Xmas" month and so far have only spent £14.00 on groceries (bread, milk and fresh fruit and veg). Hopefully I'll also empty the freezer so I can properly defrost it.
    Find a new clothes airer - mine broke (too much wet washing on it, I reckon!)

    Sexymouse I didn't say I was ddoing it, but I just mopped the kitchen floor during your HHC.
    Valli the more marking, the merrier :) I stupidly gave a class of 35 a homework that is a page of writing about the greenhouse effect! Oh my, that's awful extra marking :(
    Edit to say I am working on decluttering a bowl of icecream
