    I wish I didn't have to come back. I really really really wish I owned this house. It's pretty much my ideal home.

    pigpen OMG £1200 I would have passed out in shock! hope the DLA comes through quickly -that would help in the meantime! You have been very busy this week and well done getting DD2's room started - that will be a help - she should be able to keep that fairly tidy herself?

    she should keep it tidy she is nearly 12 so not a baby!!

    Rosepink.. I know it wasn't meant like that hun.. :) .. I just waffled on a bit.. noone to talk to here you see.. everyone is in bed!

  • Toots - seems like you're up late like me. Not sure what your treatment is (being a new returner here) but I wish you well. I am sure that the support on here and being able to share helps a little.


    Well in a little while will have to go and pick up dd - only home for 5 weeks and then back off to uni so I don't mind, especially as I don't have work tomorrow (although she does so I have said I will drive her to the station in the morning - but I can have a snooze later :D)

    The good thing is that I have started on the paperwork and clutter behind the stairs -can't believe the amount of recycling! Good thing there's a collection tomorrow...

    I've done a list of what is outstanding/what I hope to achieve tomorrow. Got an appointment in the morning though so not sure how motivated I will be after that, done shopping etc but will try. Can't leave the living room in this chaos that's for sure - looks like I've had burglars :rotfl: Keep telling myself it gets worse before it gets better.....

    Tuesday twinkles! - Living room, hall and stairs!
    Level One
    Declutter and vacuum! – and wash floor after vacuuming (laminate floor)

    Level Two
    Wipe sofas – will vacuum


    Thursday Scrub-a-dub ~ bathroom/loo and cruddy study!
    Level One
    throw out 100 things from the house! – not sure if got 100 things after all that sorting but am going to sort my makeup and toiletries (there’s loads so know this will take a while but will do it whilst watching tv to make it more bearable!)


    Level Three
    15 minutes filing/shredding! (did the bins because it is bin day tomorrow but will do 15 mins filing on Thursday)

    Extras for next couple of days
    • print off accommodation vouchers
    • pay money into NW a/c for hols
