:T OH is taking me to drop off all the charity shop stuff in the car tomorrow so loads of decluttering will be done there,then when we get back he is going to put the new shelves up in the shed.:j:j
Also swapping over TVs ,DD2s tv is going in the kitchen as it plays videos and the one in there is just a normal TV so that will be decluttered possibly to my uncle.
Cant wait to get rid of all the charity stuff as this will clear a huge hotspot in my kitchen.
Will fly in between clearing the shed,NOTHING is going back in there unless it is totally needed,ie my SC,Breadslicer etc ,good job the bins are emptied tomorrow they will be half full again by the time I have done.
Just found out OH is off to Austria (skiing again) on April 2nd:j:j:j
TV to myself:T:T:T:T:T

Hello everyone
Just another quick pop in. Had a nice but busy day. M and his Mam came over for toddlers this morning, little M had a great time, then back here where he also had a great time inc on the trampoline :rotfl: for a 1 year old he has NO fear at all giggling away while DP bounced on the trampoline to make him fall over. DS2s enuresis clinic appointment after that, trying one last meds but consultant said she doesn't think any of it's going to work.
Then went to Metro Hell, which wasn't as hell for a change. Got myself a spangly new phone which I am now trying to figure out how to use......this could take a while. Blackberry Storm it's called, it is pretty and will do all the stuff I need it to do, hopefully get me more organised and stop me double booking myself **haha miracles don't happen that easily** It's in my name too, first time in 7 years I've passed a credit check for oneI think that was the best part about getting it.
Housework went well, mad dash round before little M came over cleaning/baby safe work does wonders. Then I put the child lock on the WM (he likes to play with the buttons) and I couldn't get it back off for ages
Anyway busy day tomorrow, meeting someone for cuppas/chat in morning then picking someone up from train station then meeting all afternoon. After meeting feed children, DS2 to cubs for 6pm (he's getting invested tomorrow) DS1 to swimming 7 miles away for 6.25pm, then DS1 out of pool 7.15pm quick dressed and back for DS2 from cubs by 7.30pm. Then of course collapse in a heap.
One day I might be more organised...........

I shall be working tomorrow and Friday so won't be around much but will be here in spirit.

Huge hugs to Phil and Kazmeister hope to see you again soon and take care xx
Just wanted to let you know that I received a PM from someone who had been so wound up by AB that they had stopped posting over there. Hopefully some good will come of today's shenanigans!
I feel quite a bit more cheerful now. Am going to bed and am looking forward to a new day tomorrow.

I have been doing a bit more today, I managed to strip the bed, do some ironing!! & general S&S ing, deleted lots of emails, so the decluttering is ongoing.........amazing how much energy it takes though...Mudbath has your energy come back yet?
Toots I'll be thinking of you tomorrow, all the best sweetie, try & get an early night xx
Love to all
