    Not been home long but did most of this before I left this morning,

    Took DD1 to get her phone mended but her contract was up so she just got a new one ,How happy is she!!.

    Need to wrap DS1s pressies tonight,once he is out of the way.

    Also must do some knitting as mothers day present isnt even half finished, Oh well I have warned her it may be a little late,on the positive side I got her a Mrs Marple box set (Margaret Rutherford one) for her birthday on Sunday so at least that is sorted.

    Good Flying Vibes to everyone off to look at tomorrows list.

    Ok, have had a big push and it's nearly all done! There is only half a sinkful left! Have cleaned worktop, cleaned hob, cleaned the front of the WM and freezer and scrubbed carpet where pasta sauce was spilt y'day. I also cleaned the tiles behind and beside the cooker as they were quite mucky.
    The kitchen looks tons better! Might be able to persuade DH to hoover tomorrow and then it will be fab in there! I'm so proud of myself today! That was a heck of a marathon!
    DH had better react when he gets home!

    Thanks for the lists Pigpen, I will go and look at them now. Haven't had a chance yet, as I didn't want to get distracted away from the washing up! Have fun at college
