    Funfairprincess - lovely pictures of your daughter

    Toots and pigpen - parcels despatched

    AnW'smum - don't know if Miss A has sent DD an email yet but the Virgin site was down the other day and my email box filled up as I couldn't delete any so some won't have got through. Anyway if she has, we haven't got it IYSWIM.

    DD has gone for her swimming lesson with DH so I'd better finish off the bread pudding which I started before we went out. DH doesn't like the sausagemeat and stuffing because I used apple and herb stuffing (it's all we'd got left) so I don't know what he's taking to work with him tomorrow as he's on a night out.

  • Ahhhh, Piper, you are lovely and very helpful to mummy, well done, and I am sure Auntie Toots will give you a star... just in case, here is one for you now... :staradmin (PS: Do you like Charmed?)
    I do watch charmed but when thinking of a name we had picked John after my BiL as I was sure I would have another boy. So we had a little girl and no name. As she was born crying (just like BiL) and he plays the bagpipes we called her Piper and that's how she got her name. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: BiL thinks it's fab:D

  • Thanks soappie, I have some dressings in the house anyway because I'm allergic to normal waterproof plasters. I'll put one on before bed :o . Hugs for your cold as well.

    Pigpen - I've worn my house clothes all day - contemplating getting properly dressed to take the binbag out but think I'll risk being seen. Hope you feel better soon!

    Evening everyone! Again I'm so shocked at how much can be achieved in 45 mins!!! The lounge, hall and stairs are looking lovely - although a bit more cluttered than I would like but we've just lost 2 shelves and are waiting to get the new ones so we're in limbo at the moment!

    Anyway, here's what I've achieved so far today....

    Wednesdays are Wonderful!! - Living pit, hallway, stairs!!
    Level One

    [STRIKE]Declutter the floors!
    Vacuum/mop floors & stairs![/STRIKE]

    Level Two
    Wash the windows and the front door.. inside and out! - it's dark this will have to wait until the weekend.
    [STRIKE]Vacuum under the furniture you can safely move[/STRIKE]!
    Clean the sofas - don't know how to go about this....
    Level Three
    Declutter the inside of a cupboard or drawer! - wish I could muster the motivation for this but massive ironing pile beckons instead, maybe next week.
    Wipe all the paintwork!
    [STRIKE]Dust mantle and polish all the trinkets upon it.. and get all the junk off it![/STRIKE]
    Extras
    Wipe and water the plants - don't have any as I just kill them :rolleyes:
    Clean out the pets - don't have any
    Wash any smelly soft furnishings - don't have any
    Get a pile of filing done!! - really should do this - again next week

    Anyway I'm going to decide what to have for tea and then try and do HHI and possibly clear out a drawer. Thanks everyone :j
    Everything will be ok in the end, if everything's not ok then it's not the end :)
