I know what you mean flower re other peoples incompetence when really the solution should be simple. Drives me mad!!

On a flying front - I have S & S the kitchen, done 3 loads of washing AND played happily with my pegs:p. Planted some cucumber seeds. Sorted out the clean washing and added yet again to the ironing pile. It's nearly to the ceiling now:o Tidied the LR. Decluttered tea and biscuits

Looks like I now have to go to town and pay a cheque into our mortgage account:rolleyes: Don't want to as I have yet another headache.........oh how flippin rare:rolleyes:

Morning Toots - hope your not over doing it I'm still not sleeping properly. I'll be having to swap the matchsticks for barge poles soon I think:rotfl::rotfl:

Afternoon all

Good to see you posting Toots, feels like home

One load of washing done, including my bedding, and it's already dry and put away! Blowing a gale today.

Wednesday is bedrooms day for me. I've done all three to varying degrees. My bedroom completely (mirrors, windows/sills, furniture, stripped and remade bed, vacuumed) The spare room has been dusted and vacuumed. The back bedroom (the "train room") has been dusted and vacuumed where I can reach. I'll never be able to completely do that because of the base which has been built in there so bang goes that star!

I've done lampshades, mirrors, skylights above doors upstairs.

Bathroom/toilet floors vacuumed and cabinet top etc dusted.

Landing vacuumed, computer desk dusted.

Made a cottage pie earlier so I just have to switch the oven on in 5 minutes.

S&Sd kitchen.

Took the dog out.

Watched Mistresses (wot, that's not work? )

Back later.

I'm going to stay in Haverfordwest as that's where my friend's house is, but we'll spend most of the time out on the coast path i think!

JO i am very proud of you! you are doing great progress!! :T but what on earth is going on with '5 drawers of makeup'?!?!?!? :eek:

Probably not a good time to tell you then, thats only the 5 that i want to clear out....there are in fact more! I dont know where it all come from Actually I do - i know exactly where it comes from and i know i have a problem......I joined the 100 day challenge to try to combat this issue!! Im terrible for lotions and potions and creams and wanting to try everything. I have dry skin and use exfoliators, body wash, lotion, oil, cream, blah blah blah. I have makes up's all over the place and instead of using everything up, I spot something else in some pretty shiny packaging and think 'oooooh, wonder what this is like!!!!'

My 100 day challenge was to buy NO more toiletries - im on day 19 now i think....and i havent bought anything new.....but then my boyfriend keeps bringing me things, bless him. I have stockpiles of different bubble baths, shower gels, shampoos, conditioners - you name it!! I am trying but its a work in progress...... :rolleyes:

I think all things considered, im doing really well on that front. I had to go and buy little one some shampoo (cos he had none) and I didnt buy myself a single thing. Plus today, I went into Home bargains for the first time (how cheap is that shop!) and bought ZERO toiletries, even though it was as cheap as chips:T

Anyway - guess what!!!!!!!!! :j :j :j Really exciting news - well for me anyway!! :j :j :j

I needed to get a new bed, my mattress in on the floor.........went out today and got this...........

Isnt it beautiful....... my bedroom is cream though, not white. Anyway I got in the next clearance store for guess how much??

Come on guess??? Oh its king size by the way, if that helps...

No? Oh ok, I will tell you....... £65!!!!


:beer: Cheers to my very beautiful bargain.

Anyway, will score this off my list and get back to flying. Bathroom is almost done, but kitchen is still a work in progress.....determined to tackle the cupboard under the sink still.....:D
