    Morning all

    It is COLD and treacherous out there. We had rain during the night but the pavements are covered in pure ice now, walking down the road is easier.

    Toots I sorted the ironing into piles yesterday ;) managed to find some bits that don't need ironing on account of the fact they A & W have grown since they last wore these things :rotfl: So the girl bits were decluttered to a friend yesterday and the boy bits are going into a pile for next time I see michelle :) The grotty/worn out bits have gone in the rags r us bag. You never know I might even do some ironing today :eek: infact I could do some while watching WDYTYA

    So far DW unloaded this morning and TD too. Washing about up to date for the time being.

  • do my 2 lists! :eek: and i will not sit down until they are both completed... honest! even if it means missing CSI!
    Oh come on that is going a bit far :rotfl:

    Our weather seems to have got stuck. Dry sunny but still freezing which means the snow is staying put. Looks very pretty - all white and sparkling. Still at least the road is clear so I can walk to bus stop. Got the dentist again this morning and will get some bits and pieces while I am in town.
