Morning all
Emily - hope the workmen aren't too disruptive - and well done to your occ therap!
Dusty - hugs - hope your Nan improves today
Am going to strip the bed shortly and wash the sheets. The rest of the day is a bit of a blank page. I have the gas man coming to service the heating this afternoon so I'll need to clear out the 'boiler house' so he can see what he's doing.I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

Can anyone tell me how to run a the cleaning cycle on a washing machine?
Just can't see it on ours.
Hello Princess Jane- to do a cleaning cycle on the washing machine a lot of us use soda crystal and white vinegar and put it on a hot setting with no washing in it except maybe you cleaning rags etc. Only found this out myself this week
Toots-hope you are doing ok
Soappie hope Boo is alright. You too.
Dusty- so sorry to hear abut your Gran
Emily- Sounds like you will be having a busy day today. At least they are getting it done. Mess for 2 days must be better than mess for 5 or 6 days .
Right then todays list is Children's room. really want to get it done so that I have done all this weeks list. (Toots don't worry about the stars I just want to be able to know I have worked hard this week) May even try to do the weekend listJanuary Grocery 11/3740 -
