    Hello :) goodness me what a busy day. Managed to do some stuff in the garden this afternoon. DP eventually got the petrol mower to start (which I got off Freecycle last year) which has been refusing and he was about to give up on. Front garden is done. Fixed some of the fence with some boards we brought from the old house (yes I took down the new fence I'd just had put up and replaced it with wire one it came with) so that looks loads better. DPs been out with the hedge trimmer toy I bought him, bush which tried to take over the front of the house last year has been cut back (this is probably the wrong time to?) filled the car and went to the tip and it was CLOSED! Bother, sign says closes at 4pm but was before that when I got there and gates were all locked. So tomorrow will have to empty the car.....then refill with more branches etc.

    Bathrooms done :D so can I please have my star for today toots :D see I knew I'd do a bit better this week, 2 stars already :D:D

    Tonight DPs at his club, I'm not going I don't think. Want to get the sitting room in some sort of order instead.

    Forgot to meal plan last week, no idea what to do for tea.....
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Afternoon all

    Managed to get DS2 room done before I went whilst chatting to mum on the phone so two birds and all that.

    Just going to make some chicken breaded strip things and then do a wee bit more flying.

    Hex - do it for yourself hun, I learnt that a while back. My family don't care but I do so I do it for me

  • Hello all!!!

    Been over a week since I've been on. Same old same old with the elbow but if I'm honest it is easing slightly.

    I have kept up with my dallies but apart from that zilch I'm afraid!

    Works been tough, though the good news is I'm going back to 5 full days, so that should help money wise.

    Haven't got a clue what you've all been up to, so hope you are all ok and flying like mad. Hugs for all that need them. Will promise to catch up with the thread at some stage and to do more flying than I have recently xx

  • it depends on whether or not pigpen is out at college - if she is then she sometimes manages to post before she goes - if she is at home we dont get the next day's list until much later in the evening which gives those that are working a chance to catch up first.

    oh, ok, sorry :rolleyes: my giddiness at having a half clean house is getting the better of me :D

    Toots - I have finished mondays list and got the dailies done to so the house is now at my minimum acceptable standard. Thanks for the company Sarah and Toots.

    Dusty I know exactly what you mean. I don't expect anyone else to clean - it would just be nice if once in a blue moon they would put something away and not just down.
