    Dusty - enjoy your day in the garden - hope it cheers you up.
    blueberry well just keep telling them to do things - dont struggle on yourself - I know its frustrating that they dont do it automatically but so long as they do it when asked.
    flower well done to you with the accounts etc and WTG:T:T on the ebay things - hope they all do well for you and spur you on to do more.
    pigpen I think greenbee is right - borrow a drill and the person that uses it - what about your sister's hubby? or some of your college buddies?
    lil_me thats a lot of chipping to get done!!! hope DS's rash is not too sore and goes away soon.
    well done TAG :rotfl::rotfl: and him tripping over them is your get out clause - you have put them somewhere safe!
    Jo :rotfl::rotfl: thats another hazard of a dog - they bring in the dust and spread it around when they shake!!!

    sexy me too - will do some ebay for 30 mins as there is not a lot I can do from the lists at the mo.
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
    Live each day as if its your last

    Freezer is defrosted and all stuff put back in. I read the defrosting a freezer thread and it said use a steam cleaner which I did and it was dead quick - mind you the freezer wasn't too bad so that's done for another however long!

    Good afternoon to you all...still feels like morning to me, as I had a ( for me) very late night, but it was great, we went out as a family and met up with old friends, it definitely made me realise that we need to socialise more.

    My eye is improving, so I have been doing a bit of catch up reading on the thread, and am now off to give the house a general tidy round and hang out yet another load of washing.

    Pigpen - re the drilling. My mum always said 'why keep a dog and bark yourself' so stuff like that is DH's area for us but I can do things if I have to or if i get fed up of waiting. It is easy enough depending on what your wall is made out of - is it a solid wall or a stud wall? You may need some rawlplugs and stuff too.
