I'm taking back control.....

ClootiesMum

Thanks Time2GrowUp (which, sadly, I have never done - can't believe I'm officially middle aged)
I've not attempted ebay yet - I like reading & preparation so I'm doing that at moment for full assault later

It turns out DH misread letter & I'm only off for an assessment this month - as 3 sep dentists have already assessed the situation I can probably skip this step - but remainder of tooth needs to come out so I will go for appointment.

Anyhow for tommorrow's menu I have planned

MSE
Update spreadsheets -done
H/made lunch -done
More e-bay book - read a wee bit - but the Mentalist was on (drool)
Provide haircut to Doggy Boy No 1 :eek: - this may look scary but it saves about £15 - done - dog looks gorgeous

Thanks for popping on to my diary. I love your lists. DH got me into using lists but I am not very good at them but I do try. You have reminded me I have a pile of paperwork needing filed away before cat sitter is here while we are away. Too many bits of info I don't want known outside the four walls of this house and this lovely anonymous site.

ClootiesMum

Thanks ScottishMummy - & believe me, I fully understand re recognition in the streets....

Now, paperwork needing filing you say - can't you shred that for the cat litter tray - wonderful recycling if you ask me.

Scottishmummy

Hmmm, I'm a bit of a paperwork hoarder - bank statements for seven years etc!

That's the kind of place I want to work at:D

ClootiesMum

Trust me - they get their pound of flesh before they insist they put another pound on us....

But it is nice & we supply our own brown sauce to make things even yummier

It's the weekend - at last

DH is off tomorrow :jso tomorrow will be a day off from MSE. He has noticed that I've been doing things around the house but is not saying much - I think he's just happy not having to think about cleaning house/clean clothes/ironed clothes/eating..... I think I've drawn the short straw here. But he did look concerned yesterday when I marched into the living room wielding a hammer - he jumped up from the seat pretty damn quick (hammer was for door hinge - what else?:rolleyes:).

Anyway, for today

MSE

Pigsback - done
Air dry clothes - being done
Much more of e-bay book - read a bit more
Tidy out cupboard in spare room as this is going to be my e-bay stash place & I know there are ebayables in there - turns out this is a scary job so only part done

Non MSE

Go shopping for the week's supplies - done
Clean house - done
I have some work forms that need to be done - I'm not in the habit of bringing work home but on this occassion - needs must & if I have this done I'll not feel as harrassed on Monday - done
Gardening - weather permitting - it rained - honest
Fix the door on the TV cupboard - DH has never got round to this so it's time to put him to shame. -mostly done
Anyhow - away off to tidy before going shopping (a necessary evil in my book)

Have a good weekend folks

Have a good day folks

As DH ain't home yet (he doesn't know about this diary - he'd get upset) I'm going to work out tomorrow's stuff to be done

MSE

Home foraged lunch -done & enjoyed
Spreadsheets - done
Look out seeds that I have so I can work out what I need to get to plant out at weekend. - done & seeds shopping list made up
Pigsback - done
Have another NSD - woohoo - 2 in a row

Non MSE

Finish clearing that *&%$£** cupboard in the spare room- done - and how much junk did I find???
Hand in letter to lawyers that I received today & need to sign - will hand in 7am tomorrow but have had this signed & witnessed
Clear out another file from personal filing box - done, but it's the last of the small files - the next 4 are biggies (can you guess I keep stuff "just in case"
Make up a template shopping list - that way I don't have to think as much when I'm organising the shopping - OK this will have to passed on to tomorrow's list as time is not on my side today
Work out how to amend/change title of thread - it just sounds soooo boring (almost as boring as me) -got it sussed & I'm really chuffed

Well folks, off to do the ironing now - & pray it doesn't rain too much as I really don't fancy another 5am wake up to hear the neighbours shouting that the house is flooding (as happened last August).

Have a good day folks
