    I'll also join you as I have so much to do.
    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    OMG are you ready for this!!!!!!! :eek::eek::eek:

    Hi have just decluttered a bin bag full of shoes to freecycle!!! A WHOLE BAG FULL! What the hell is the matter with me!?

    *****jo faints as the reality of parting with her shoes kicks in*****

    Im back....

    I am ashamed to also say that I still have baby things belonging to my 7 year old - which i am giving to a girl on freecycle too!! Blankets, nursery curtains (which I love old fashioned winnie the pooh with pelmit and tie backs!) changing box, nursery thermometor (why do i still have this stuff!) - all of which have come out of my linen cupboard........why did i move house with these things?

    I have also decluttered some of little ones shoes and a bag of clothes which dont fit to my friend. Have also put plenty in the bin, which just leaves my ebay pile to contend with.....:rolleyes:

    Then im going to asda/sainsbury to get food in for my mum and the little one coming home...:j:j:j

    Bad news though, my mum is bringing Asbo-dog with her :rolleyes: Hes a loveable mutt really and i love him to bits, but he is as thick as two short planks and totally wrecks my house :eek: It doesnt help that most of my house is cream :rolleyes:

    Morning all

    Toots - bathroom done today (whatever day that was supposed to be!) and the computer desk was done on Tuesday so I think that's another star. Although, I didn't pull the desk out so maybe not?

    One load of washing out on the line, it's dry so far but starting to look a bit iffy.

    Otherwise, veggies prepped for dinner. Computer had security updates today which meant a couple of restarts so that all took time, but so far so good.

    Just pottering around, normal dailies done. Off to catch up, hope everyone's OK.

    I had to turn the computer off shortly before going to work last night because I heard thunder rumbling, then (just as I was going out obviously) the heavens opened and we had torrential rain and hail and fork lightning. I finally dried out at about 8pm at work!


    Good wishes being sent for your Dad, Mudbath. Yours too Froddington :)
    Hope the freezer is OK today Soappie or you'll be off one one of your flying raids to buy and install household equipment :D
    Good luck with the job application Rach :)
    Hope this afternoon goes well again for you Toots.
    Good luck Mrsmortenharket :)
    Happy Birthday lady liberty, hope you have a lovely day.

    Still catching up.....
