    Washing folded and put away or hung up to finish drying. Second freecycler has been emailed to collect soon cos we're going out to dinner at 7pm. Have also planned next week's meals and written my shopping list.

    Have told OH that he needs to complete his 2 items on his list quickly or I won't get my star, and he's also looked at next week's list and thinks he could "knock some of those off this weekend". I did explain that they were next week's list and that I was only giving him 4 tasks a week to make it manageable (now worried I'm going to have to bake a cake and clean his car in one weekend) lol.

    Well done to everyone who has completed their lists today and to all of the flychildren who have helped out. Ebony wouldn't help me with my list, and just molted more fur all over the bed and my desk! ;)
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Unfortunately you quite often get no-shows with freecycle. If it isn't collect it, just re post saying 'Re-offered as not collected'.

    Have a look at this thread for rants ;) but also some useful hints (e.g. naming the recipient when posting to say who it is being collected by, so that people know who the culprit is!)

    There was someone else who was also interested but didn't even write in full sentences - she wrote in text speak, so I ignored that one, but if she doesn't show by 7 I may offer it to her.

    Well I've not exactly been flying this week (for that read my home is a sh*t hole) I've just covered 34 meetings in a week and wrote up all the minutes and am now starting a week off. :j

    So next week will see a new me emerge - and hopefully a cleaner house:rotfl:

    I have run the DW and the WM since I can home and tea about to be served so I've made a reasonable start.

    Triker - I go with pigpen on the co op electricals route, I bought my DW off them, ordered boxing day and they delivered (free!!) on New Years Eve. Comet and all the other people couldn't manage it for another week.

    Of to get the lasagne out of the oven (DS has turned up so someone will have to have the corned beef hash out of the fridge - not me:D )

    Well Home & Away is on in a minute, and when it finishes we'll be off to dinner, so probably won't be on here again tonight.

    Take care everyone, and see you all tomorrow at some point.
