I'll join you for a HHI at 1.45, Mummy2mygirls....

Oh, Jo - good luck with the 100 day challenge.....I used to have loads of products/make up, etc too- then I did the "shop from home" challenge - I put only one lot of each (e.g. shampoo, conditioner, bubble bath, shower gel, soap, perfume, moisturiser, body lotion, etc) out, and put the rest in a cupboard. Then, when I ran out, I would go to the cupboard and "shop from home". Because they were hidden away, it was like a treat! Also, I found that when I had loads of stuff out, I couldn't see what I had, so wouldn't use it and would buy more!! Now, I use all the stuff, and haven't had to buy anything for about 2 years now!!:D

Just a quick update for today :j Wednesday's list done :j Not doing so well with my personal flying list....

.Start filling party bags
.Internet shop for Saturday
.Washing and drying
.Pack all easter eggs into boxes - ready to take into school next week
.Ring council to organise having old sofa and desk taken away
.Meal planner
[strike].Drop prescription request into Doctors[/strike]

Thanks for all the suggestions for pink lemonade. I thought I might as well make it myself, so I am going to try all the suggestions, and see how it goes; there were also a few nice recipies online, so it is going to be a bit of trial and error I think! Have just picked up ds from nursery. He was so excited when I got there, as they have an incubator and eggs, and three of the chicks had hatched today. He was so excited and fascinated by them....it was lovely. On the way home in the car, he asked me to stop at the supermarket, to buy some eggs, so we could have chicks at home!!! How on earth do I explain to a 3 year old that it does not really work like that I think this is going to have to go down in the memory book that I keep for the children Very funny but very sweet! I hope you are all ok. Have a nice afternoon x

Thats kinds what ive been doing.....all the stuff is away in drawers and cupboards, but there is soooooooo much stuff in there, I dont even know whats there!! Thats why i need to sort them out and start using them up...... Thats my plan anyway. At least I now know its worked for you, gives me the motivation to do it Thanks!!

Off to build my bed.....dont think i will do it in 30 mins though :rolleyes:

AbbieB

The bed is gorgeous Jo, and what a bargin!

AnW'sMum

Right I have just about bottomed the bathroom, wet wiped the skirtings sorted through the basket of bottles/lotions/potions on the shelf at the back of the bath. There are oodles in there most of them were given or taken from hotel rooms when we went to the US with Mum and Dad! We need a programme of using things up as well lol Still got the mirror and window to do but it is loads better. Another dot joined up

Lunch now and neighbours, I'm starving. Will declutter the magazine rack whilst TV is on and maybe the mantle piece. A scatter gun approach but the areas I have done are staying done so all in all it's progress!

Its not my favourite but not bad. I had some sweet potatoes to use up so thought I'd make it.

Going to be a naughty girl now and instead of doing a HHC I'm going to have a HHN (half hour nap). Just don't tell Pigpen I'm slacking off!!!!

Jo...nice bed. What a bargain!
