  • amazing what you can do in half an hour!

    Ordered plug plants from T & M using up some vouchers in my drawer - so for the extra £ odd I will have 84 busy lizzies and 48 geraniums for my pots.

    Iced and put away the buns.
    Put bread loaves into bake.
    Prepped and put on veg, in steamer, for dinner.
    Washed up and wiped all worksurfaces, and Chef.
    Cleaned out a cupboard and chucked some old stuff and have only replaced what we use.
    Filled cereal containers.
    Found timer's back - lost behind the micro - DH to mend later.
    Emptied microwave.
    Cleaned WM drawer.
    Put recycling into car to drop off on way to work tomorrow.

    Quick cuppa, then another HHC to take me to dinnertime I think,

    laters

    Moam
    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Thankyou so much for your kind thoughts everyone, we haven't ahd any more news yet so boyf isn't sure if he'll be going over to Ireland later in the week. His friend from over there is ringing when he finishes work tonight. It's very strange, I've been in a different world all day, and I'd only met the guy a handful of times.

    I feel like I need to do something productive as I've been in a daze all day so I'm going to go and have a look on my list and see what to do.

    Love to you all, you are all wonderful people
    xxx

    My list
    1. Get bags ready for the new week
    2. Wash any bedding that has been missed this week
    3. HHStudy again
    4. Put away any winter coats/boots/clothes you won't be wearing (we hope) for a few months
    5. Update the finance spreadsheets.. it should be payday about now for those paid monthly - for this read 'make a finance spreadsheet'
    6. binbag dance!
    I'll join you Froddy, I'll sort the winter clothes and by bag for tomorrow, then a binbag dance.

  • Another star please :j:j

    That's the kitchen and bathroom done so stars for Tuesday and Wednesday. Pretty pleased that I managed to get them done and get the stars because this week has been a frantic one - back in school full time (have been doing three days in school and two days on secondment which gave me a bit of flexibility) and new head teacher too so everyone on best behaviour!

    Been and waved off my daughter - a bit sad but will actually see her next weekend as I am going up there. Managed a couple of hours reading (snoozing :D) in the sun and now going to attack the jungle out there - surprised the neighbours haven't complained that I'm bringing down the area with my unkempt appearance :rotfl:

    Have some work to do later for school and will aim for a bit of flying too...
    Proud to be dealing with my debts
