    I'm in again this week. Thanks for the list pigpen. Will be working all day tomorrow and then gyming afterwards, so may not get an awful lot of flying done, but lounge etc is looking great still from last week. Off to bed now. Think I may steal that MACAW of being in bed by 10.30pm from Vanilla (edited this in, in case you all think I'm psychic).

    Night Night everyone,

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    This weeks MACAW is to be in bed by 10.30pm.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    I'm in, no list til I see whether I make it to work. About 3 inches of snow here already so taking people on a walk is looking unlikely (walking in the snow is lovely but not very slowly and not if it's slippy!). I'm meant to be giving blood tomorrow night.

    Carrying on from the other thread, thanks for advice. I never see the neighbours (except through the window!) and their door is at the back whereas ours is on the side (both above shops) but we do hear their music as walls are paper thin. I will maybe pop round there in the daytime when the wife is in as less embarassing, will also look into a blind i think.

    Roast was lovely and tons of chicken left, stock bubbling now.

    I'm in again for my 4th week.
    Over the weekend I have changed all the beds & sorted out the cupboards under the bathroom sink (found some cream with a use by date of May 1996 - hmmmm....)& the kitchen sink( nothing too nasty lurking there).the kitchen worksurfaces are looking very clean as I have just started using stardrops and cant believe how good it is

    lovely, the living room. i did this yesterday after shampooing the carpets so i only have to wipe down the paint work and wash the curtains and sofa covers. i do like an easy day!
    lots to do tomorrow, need to pop to tesco, take back shampooer and get some heavy fabric from dunelm. there is an awful draft from the electric cupboard so am making a curtain liner for it.

    Hi,

    Thanks Pigpen.

    I'm in as much as i can. I start my course tomorrow so will be out most of the day:eek: . I'm going to rope Ds1 in and maybe do a HHC together. We should get most of it done then.

    My boiler has packed up and i have no heating:eek: . I need a new central heating system. It should be started Tuesday but it will be at least a week until it's all functional. Thankfully i have a real fire in the living room or we'd be frozen by now. Whilst they're doing it they're going to put radiators in the dining room and Living room:j . I love the real fire and it's proving it's worth now but it will be nice not to have to do it all the time.

    I'm going to bed now or i'll never get up in the morning:rolleyes: .
