Magnificent Monday ~ Master bedroom and Landing Done

Justamum

valli - the compost bin the link went to looks just like the one we had before. It was nearly full when we moved in though. Is this the bottomless one? If so I wish I'd known it before - it got very compacted and was very difficult trying to get the compost out of the little door at the bottom.

Justamum, most compost heaps are bottomless, as the compost is much better if it's touching the soil. For one thing, worms can come into the heap and do nice things to your compost to make it decompose quicker!

Hugs Jo

Kaz, hope things get better soon between you and DH. Sounds like he’s really stressed out and you are too. Hugs honey

Ging, are you a woman? Or did you mean that you'd had the snip?

Really am going to bed now. DH has work tomorrow, and I've got lots of flying to do, and we are tired, so an early night is called for. I'm so happy my kitchen looks so nice! Really pleased with all the flying I did this morning.

:hello:Hi to all the newbies!! Take it steady at first, and I would suggest that in addition to a Level One, do a 15 minute decluttering in the Room of the Day as well - you can't clean properly if it's all cluttered (yes, that's the voice of bitter experience there!) If it's truly horrendous, then 15 minutes decluttering may be all you can do in there, but stick at it - I managed to reclaim my master bedroom doing just that last year!

Thank you for the good advice which I am going to try and do. Have had a good day today and have well and truly evicted the uninvited lodger who had taken residence under the bed - the fluff monster! Where does all that fluff come from?!!

Primula, you need to clink on "post reply" or "go advanced" when you want to post your list, and then above the box you write in is an S with a line through it. Highlight what you want to strike through and then click the S. It will then be crossed out when your post shows up on here.

I still haven't finished the ironing. I'm just going to do a few more bits then have a bath. I'll have to finish it properly tomorrow night.

Meant to say Well done Primula you've done really well.

How stupid am I? At least I'll know for when I get one for my allotment (whenever that happens!)
