    I'm glad you recognise true brilliance when you see it!:rotfl: Are you still checking for secret messages!?!

    Yes I am Mudbath... :rotfl: You thought you'd get away with that one didn't you?...

    Not able to do anything at the moment cleaning wise, but because the house was so shiny last week, it's just a matter of cleaning up really so not too bad (do need to vacuum though, dog hair EVERYWHERE! :o )... That's the great thing about this thread - when you can't keep up, it's still not so bad is it...

    BUT! I have been doing my extras, have been planning loads for work, trying to rake up more work, so have been very busy... quieter day tomorrow so hopefully things will start picking up workwise then... ;)

    Hope everyone else is being productive... :rotfl: Hugs to those that need them and see you all later x

  • Just seen tomorrows list. Here is what I've done/is still ok from last week

    Wishy-washy Wednesday ~ bathroom/loo and cruddy study!
    Level One
    Declutter the clutter!
    Extras
    1. Dust and deweb
    What is a toilet hat? I also don't think I have 100 things to throw away, but throughout the week more than 100 things get thrown away. In fact, when I cleaned the sink earlier in the kitchen there were probably more than 100 grains of rice in there!
    I like the extra about the five minute job. I think that will be standing over DH and nagging him/thwacking him til he tidies up the table. He was supposed to do it before the weekend was over! spank.gif

    Any one up for an HHK at 9 pm? I really want to get on with my cushion cover.

    :wave: Thanks toots and rosepink it was just frustration more than anything with a particular company who seem to be hellbent on driving me insane and i feel a lot better after my cry.

    i'll mainly be knitting at lunchtimes at work and about now toots - to wind down before bed - if i could do more than one during lent that would be great then hopefully i'll carry on after that.

    family have just arrived back so going to see what pigpen has listed for tomorrow and start delegating;)

    love

    I am quite pleased with what I got done today - although I REALLY needed to do the fridge, but tackled the oven first and then couldn't face the fridge. I think I'm just tired as it's that time of the month, I've eaten 4 pancakes and about 10 chocolates and I started a new job this week!

    I nearly burst in to tears when I saw that I have to throw out 100 things tomorrow - I don't have 100 things to throw out so I won't even reach level 1!

    Hugs all!
    Everything will be ok in the end, if everything's not ok then it's not the end :)
