Happy Monday night all

Decided not to go to yoga & pilates as I have the day off tomorrow and probably need to get back into my routine gently (seeing as I overslept by nearly 3 hours this morning ).

Managed to do some flying during my last teleconference (put away the case of wine that was on the doorstep when I got back from the gym... I haven't finished the last one yet :rolleyes: ). And since then have cleared and wiped the surfaces, wiped one windowsill (checked the window... doesn't need doing yet, so I don't need to move the jungle I keep there to stop next door looking in), wiped the appliances and doors in both kitchen & utility room, cleaned the DW filters, washed up, cleaned the hob and oven...

... kitchen table is still a hotspot, and the utility room a bit of a mess due to the remaining bits of flatpack being out there, but I should be able to finish most of the list and get all the downstairs floors done tonight. And possibly do a few bits in the study...

Must find my list to update!

Pigpen - I agree, Jacob and his mum would be much better off with you, and at least you have plenty of positive experience to share with her.

Hello everyone - got in from work at 17.20 and started flying at 17.30 - kitchen wasn't too bad but all done!!!!! Which has amazed me since I was just meant to go for Level 1 this week

Level One - Done

Level Two - Done

Level Three - Done



DH is due back from work any minute - I'm afraid he might pass out with shock :rotfl: as normally I don't do any housework in the week!

Anyway - I'm going to try and do HHI as well this evening as I currently have a mound of it in the middle of the lounge floor :eek:

Well done everyone and thanks again for this brilliant thread :beer:

SS supergirl - you would never forgive yourself or them if something happened - you dont want DD to be a modern statistic!
pigpen as mudbath says you are a softie! and a lovely person with it! that FC should be reported - I know what you said about her own daughter not being allowed to visit and this may be upsetting her but she cant carry on like this.

You are supposed to send her the occasional one in between flying, not go off researching new ones We need evidence that you've made progress on your bedroom please!

ETA - I've just looked in my inbox... Toots, you've managed to send me more emails today than Freecycle has :rotfl: :rotfl:

Good Evening

Thank you to froddington for the info re copying the list.

Spirit

Thanks Spirit but it wasn't me

However - to cross out what you have done, you highlight the bit you want to cross out and then click on the button that looks like an S with a line through it. Hope that makes sense.
pigpen - I hope SS aren't planning on sending any more children to FC :eek: GF and Jacob would def be better off with you, if you think it's doable!

Dinner cooked and being eaten Trying to decide whether to dye my hair tonight or leave it til later in the week Rubbis collected from downstairs rooms!

Oh, and my dad phoned and he has arranged for us to go to the Submarine Museum on Weds and see all the stuff they have about my Grandfather soappie - take note Am v excited :j

I am not hunting for any new ones - I have loads sitting waiting to be dealt with and its my perfectionism or whatever it is that stops me just deleting the whole lot and not bothering to send them out!

As for the bedroom - before I went to bed this morning I emptied out the 2 under-the-bed storage boxes and reorganised them and put what I wont use aside for selling! all the major work that can be done has been - it just needs a normal clean and hoovering!

Once I have totally decluttered my inbox of jokes I will be starting on the ebay - I cant settle to do it at the moment as I want to keep my promise to LL and it will be something that is badly needing done! Although it is taking me longer than I thought it would so may have to do it over the course of this week which will annoy me.
