Aye up Mudbath , I am not too bad, i have just been run off my feet and now its steadying up again. I have had to stop being the muppet helping everyone else and have some me time so i have joined a gym! I have enough on and i wasn't sitting down until 11:30pm most days, so hopefully life will be a little more relaxing:rolleyes:
How's yourself? I hope your well if i remember you were very fragile last time we spoke, you kept breaking bones.

As for towel radiators what about a small oil radiator?

OOOOh AnWsmum and Mudbath, Yankee tarts lol I love them too, I have black cherry burning right now!

All of the abovethat has been changed to pink is what i have done, i am really quite impressed myself, stil have living/dining room to vacuum and a pile of ironign thats competing with mount kilimanjaro.

The ironing can wait until this evening, it should take about 2 hours:o

Just as i am typing, the little man has just woke up and is on his way downstairs so i can now vacuum the living/dining room and the staircase.

Then it will be time to prepare the tea.

When the Oh gets back from Maggot drowning i will hopefully start on wednesdays tasks...all the eddign was down at the weekend so that a job already done, not that i want to cheat or anything:rolleyes::D

Have fun ladies x :wave:

Not being one to give up I have done all three levels! I can't believe I have achieved so much today. My husband had to go to France for a meeting today...he'll think he's walked into the wrong house when he gets home tonight!

Soappie - can I have a star now please?

I'm now thinking that based on my enthusiam to do things in order to get a star I shall start a campaign to make stars available to people outside of primary schools and MacDonalds restaurants. I think they should be used by employers, doctor's, police...thinking about it I did always get rather excited when I got a sticker at Slimming World, perhaps I am just naturally child like...or perhaps childish?

Not as bad as standing on a slug in bare feet and having it ooze between your toes :eek::eek::eek: I did that years ago and I've been traumatised ever since :rotfl:

Think I might be able to top that - DON'T READ IF YOU ARE EATING

Some time ago I needed to syphon water out of the pond, so I found a length of hose which had been left outside, cleaned the ends, put one end in the pond & proceeded to suck the other. It took ages to get a syphon going & I was just about to give up when the slug that had been blocking the pipe landed up in my mouth :eek::eek::eek: Fortunately the old 'spit don't swallow' reflex kicked in in time, but uuuugggghhhhh!!!! I am shuddering just thinking about it! Needless to say, the length of hose we use for this is now kept hanging up in the garage with a plug in each end!!

Anyway, my list -

Wishy-Washy Wednesday - Master bedroom and Landing
Level One
[STRIKE]Strip and wash bedding!
[/STRIKE][STRIKE]Clear some floordrobe[/STRIKE]
Level Two
[STRIKE]Clear landing floor.. or sort a hotspot out there!!
[/STRIKE][STRIKE]Wash curtains[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Vacuum floors
[/STRIKE]Level Three
Sort out one cupboard In the process of sorting out my wardrobe, so that'll cover the binbag dance when it's done as well!
Binbag dance
HHI Will do this tonight while I'm watching the footy. I iron faster during the exciting bits!

AnWsMum - what yankee stuff did you get? I got some more tarts yesterday as I was runing low. I LOVE them!

Got a set off of QVC which included 12 of each midnight jasmine, fresh cut roses, sweet violet and evening primrose plus 4 tea light holders. First time I have bought anything from there, really impressed with the speed they came especially as there was no P&P to pay.

Glad your massage went well.

Soappie - kitchen all finished, all done, no cheating, whole lot

Just having a cuppa and then time to prepare dinner, make some scones.

Tonight is footie training if it stops raining and ironing to do.
