Morning everyone,

Oh feels all odd and weird here. DD's boyfriend sorted out the wireless connection for me on Thursday night and I'm up in DS bedroom now typing this.......because DH is downstairs playing Texas Hold Em on the 'family computer'.:rolleyes:

Anyway had yet another of my mad decluttering episodes this morning. It was DS bedroom that got it this time;) I've rearranged, defluffed and hoovered much to his annoyance;) But it looks better and he has much more room now. Just need to go through the drawers and cupboard and have a chucking out session.

Right suppose I'd better crack on a bit and go and find a list to cross off.

Diva - consider a candle lit for Tris.

One load of laundry in, and parcels wrapped for serena and Rach. Just debating whether to walk to the post office and go to the village shop, or drive and do the farm shop at the same time.

I SHOULD walk... :rolleyes:

Oh yes... also managed to empty some summer clothes out of the chest of drawers, which means that most of the winter stuff has now been put away. Also realised that the reason I am running out of underwear (I have about a month's supply) is because all the clean ones were in the airing cupboard. So later today I need to put this lot away and pack up the summer clothes to go into the top of the wardrobe!

Morning all, been reading posts all morning but felt guilty posting as I've done sweet nothing all morning!!

Well I dragged myself to work and that's about it. I had a couple or so (hic hic) in pub after work last night with DH and not good when your tired and had nothing to eat!!

Bless him, he's just been into work with a bacon sandwich for me as I'm the only one here today, just aswell as I'm twiddling my thumbs as it is, estate agent agency work is still dire I'm afraid.

Hope you all do lots of flying, will keep up with the thread today and may be able to tackle list tomorrow, DH is going to dust and hoover downstairs for me today so only upstairs and food shopping to do

Morning all

Need to catch up with the thread as I got in at 9pm last night and thought I should spend some time with DH rather than get straight on here!!

A bit like greenbee i need to go right through the place today but it's mainly superficial. Am going to do at least one 60 in 60 though as I found it helpful yesterday! Yet again the coffee table in the lounge is full of stuff: DH is the main culprit - I got in last night to find 2 wii controllers, a wii game, a metal tape measure and a long wire thing that tests his speakers sitting on there

Had a fab day with my friend, long sit in a coffee shop followed by wandering around, mexican for late lunch and then I managed to get the MBTs (shoes) I wanted - HALF PRICE!! Very pleased about that!

Off to catch up with the thread, then I'll do a list

Morning Folks

One domestic godess reporting in:rotfl:

I have been cleaning since 8am and the WHOLE house is spotless:j :j

I have also clean the shower tray with cif and a scrubbing brush, now you have to understand I HATE cleaning the shower tray, but the job is done.

I have also tipped up over the bin, the toaster, removed the little tray from the bottom, and given that a through clean, (yes I did remember to unplug it before I started) and got all the crumbs out of it.

I am now about to make mushroom soup and also a batch of veg soup.

Off also to read the thread.

Catch you all later

Hugs for those that need them

Triker – so glad you’re so much improved! What a relief for you.

Pigpen – great news about the cooker. Dinner at yours tomorrow?

Hex – well done on the weightloss! I know I can really tell the difference in me and I’m sure you’re the same. How are you finding the running?

Soappie – I bet if you did the learning style profile we did at our work team day the other week you’d come out as a ‘decision maker’ which I did!! I have no doubt the kitchen will be fab!

Likklegibbon- that’s fantastic weightloss, enjoy wearing those jeans!

Mozzy – hope the viewing goes well

Lil_me – glad you caught up on sleep

AnW hope you are all having a good weekend

Diva – thoughts and prayers

Afternoon everyone! No flying from me for me yesterday or today but DH has done loads. I had a fab girlie night out last night and though I wasn't drinking getting home in the early hours of the morning is harder than it used to be. Still, caught up with people I normally only have time to say a quick hello to so it was worth it.

Still not heard back from the athletics / running club which I'm not pleased about. They won't be going back.

Definitely a lazy day for me!!

LL - how are you doing now?

Hugs to everyone xx
