Time to get moving and get some cleaning done. Running at 6.15pm so want to get tidied a bit. I have made batch cooked 3 x meat lasagnes and 3 x vegetarian lasagnes to put in the freezer. Will do chilli for tea I think.

Have updated the list with what still needs doing and the plan is to do 15 minutes in a room then move onto another room. Will start in the kitchen and wash some pans and start tea. That won't get anything crossed off as I did the kitchen already but at least it'll look a bit tidier.

right - read the first page, copied the daily tasks and levels into Word, removed bits that don't apply and printed it off.
Will put up in the kitchen so as soon as I get home from work each night I'll see what I need to do!

Really looking forward to doing this and getting to know you guys!! :beer:

Hi Honey and welcome to the thread. I have sent you a PM to welcome you and have added you to the 3 post on page 1 as a newbie.
I will add a Christmas tree so Pigpen ( Listmaker and HRH ) knows to add you to her post.

You will do great things but remember you are having a baby and need to take things steady.

Toots is our usual greeter so look out for her.

Thank you for the lovely welcome - I am trying to coax more of my pregnant ladies to join me over here!!

I will take things steady but looking forward to the HHI posts if I catch them in time!!

Hi Glamazon I will be keeping an eye on you - so dont be overdoing it - too much nesting and cleaning is not allowed!!!! Dont wait for next month just jump in and join us today - a new list starts on Sunday - the rooms get swapped about just to keep us on our toes!
We will get you organised before bubs arrives!!

TAG hope the house move went well today - thinking about you honey.

carol22 hope the exam went well and you are having a lovely day.

I have still not done anything in the kitchen - I hung out the sheets which i had forgotten about - took in the other washing as it is all lovely and dry and only 1 bit needs ironing - phew!

have defragged and deleted 61 emails.

Had a lovely time thanks toots

Actually he is the son of friends of mine - young enough to be my grandson (which means I am old enough to be his grandmother which is really scary. OK I know I am, but don't like being reminded IYSWIM)

Still probably what I needed since I went to bed worrying about Jo, slept badly and woke up feeling lousy. Oh I am so glad I didn't join the list I might have committed the crime of sending someone a 'not xmas' card or a present.

Glamazon

OK tooti (If I may call you that ) I won't work too hard but am leaving work now to make a start. Might make a start on kitchen today though because it's in desperate need of a declutter.

Hopefully can get it done before OH comes home and begs me to stop!

See you've motivated me already!!!

Carol 22 Happy Birthday Hope you having a great day xxxx

SSL - I don't have pics on facebook of the garden but I think I'll take some (once I've brought the washing in) and I'll try and put them up over the weekend. The olive tree doesn't bear olives but is quite a pretty tree. Thanks for your interest x

I WILL turn into a gardner lol. I bought a mag the other day called 'Grow Your Own' and they had a wee article on olive trees. I think its probably too cold up here to survive, but I may make further enquiries. I like the thought of a pretty tree
