    Afternoon all :wave:

    G&B - well done you :T:T:T I gave up on the Uni website and relied on someone else telling me when the results were in ;)

    Hugs all round xx

    Well I got a lovely surprise 2 hours ago. BF phoned me to tell me he was on his way up, a day and a bit early :D Then panic set in when I realised what a state the house is!

    So got in about a hour ago and ran about like a daftie. Just sat down with a coffee to catch up with the thread. Difficult to do now that I'm back full time, but I'm fairly obsessive about reading every post :rolleyes: Anyway, need to update my list.

    My HHC didnt quite got to plan, i got my DW emptied and reloaded, did some dishes and S&S'd the kitchen. Then my mum phoned and i chatted to her for 15 mins. At least i did something though:D

    These are abbreviation explanations...
    Swish and swipe/S&S
    means have a quick wipe over an area such as a sink or toilet to prevent the build up of dirt. This is usually done on a daily basis

    HHE/HHC/HHI Half Hour exercise/challenge/ironing ... run around for 30 minutes to the Benny Hill music frantically cleaning exercising or ironing.. other music may be used if you prefer!
    5GC five minutes gardening.. make it lovely for your family and enjoy it!

    Have cleaned the kitchen...
    wrapped a christmas pressie (there is a method in my madness - 'stocking fillers' are being wrapped as they are bought to protect them from prying eyes;))

    No problem - I had to ask loads of questions when I joined inc about OH etc. The only one I got straight away was WIL which is used by Lil_me if I remember rightly. Can't think why:p;)
