I'm taking back control.....

ClootiesMum

i've done mine so a night in front of the tv/computer beckons.....

I'm not jealous...

So long as the wood stained paws match your carpets the things should be OK

Have a good night in front of gogglebox - I can't see anything I want to watch anyway - except for programme I said I'd record for DH - must go NOW

Luckily I have wood stained floors....:rotfl:

Nothing on TV, watching Home Alone in NY.. again..... hence on computer.....!!:D

If I have to watch a film to pass the time - I love Pay It Forward - it makes me cry every time - and also Independence Day.

Hiya
Just read your diary so far and I also love your lists. That's exactly what I need to do - MSE things and also lists for household/other tasks. You doing really well, keep up the good work.

Morning folks,

Am sitting here at work with my shiny new £20 to last 2 weeks a-la-Hypno challenge so today's challenges are

MSE

Normal daily stuff (pigsback, spreadsheets, kitchen foraged lunch & tea)
Go to Mum's on way home & pick up growbags
Put 1st items for sale on ebay - I know I've not finished the book yet, but I'll jump in both feet first


NON MSE

I have a legal document needing signed for lawyer so I need to chat someone up as a witness
Empty car of all the stuff I acquired from Mum's greenhouse 9 my back seat is full ...
Do all the ironing as I did more washing yesterday.

Kind of boring day but as this week will be a hard one I'm not pushing myself too much - next week the bigger jobs will start again

Have a good day folks

CM

ClootiesMum

Yesterday was a washout - only thing I did was to have lawyers lettter signed - I think that this whole week will be much the same so if I get my car emptied & the ironing done by Friday I'll be well pleased with myself

:hello:Hello CM,

How are you doing today????? Did you get your first item onto Ebay ok????
I notice you have not been on your diary, crossing off ya lists.. hope alls ok with u.... T2GU. x

ClootiesMum

Thanks T2GW :wave:

Didn't manage e-bay I'm afraid & DH & I have decided to write this week off as a bad job. No lists this week I'm afraid but will start afresh next week
But I have been doing spreadsheets & pigsback- triple points today:j

This week brings back so many bad memories, but some of them we will laugh at in the future - honest

Like the day after MIL died, we went to see Mum who looked at us and said "I'm so sorry for your loss, but do you know Carlton are doing 4 cream cakes for the price of 3?" - the joys of the inappropriateness of dementia

But on a cheery note - chooky hens are settling in well & I can foresee eggs on the horizon soon.

So off now to rummage in fridge for tea.

Thanks for all your concern folks & normal service will be resumed next week.

Now that I'm fed & watered the world looks much better. And even better since DH has called & has bought cheap w/up liquid & dishwasher tabs (all posh ones) for 15p & £1 in Mr A's - needless to say he bought several of each so I shouldn't need to buy these for about another 6 months - how happy I get at such small cheapies....

Off to potter now in another cupboard as I need a nice bow type thing for the flowers he's bringing home for his Mum tomorrow.

Got to say it, I lurve the list thing..especially that you have both MSE and Non ones. I really wish I was that organised
