    Phew it's so hot out there at the moment, just raked up all the dead grass off the lawn - ha ha ha LAWN! I have visions of grandeur :rolleyes: the grassy patch should I say, been doing it all week so that's another niggly job done, should have put it on my challenge list instead of the stoopid windows then I'd be finished :D

    I'm a bit kernackered to do littleys room now, I know it will only be a 10 min job tops, but it's just the thought *yawn* I have to get the hoover out the car then lug it upstairs, then gather the cleaning stuff up again and take that up.....CBAAaaaaaaaaa! it'll keep for tomorrow, see I've talked myself out of it.

    I AM however gonna do another niggly job that's bugging the yahoobies off me - clear the porch, it's just had everything flung in there and there's loads of bits of plasterboard and bags of skip rubbish, think I'll clear it all out and gather a nice neat pile for the skip run I'll probs* do over the w/e.

    * probably but not likely, well I might do, we'll see.

    Thank you for your words of support everyone. I am going to make a start on Monday with the level one stuff and at least look at level 2!

    How do I get the challenges on to my reply and how do I cross off the stuff I have done - assuming I have done anything!!! :rotfl:

    H
    How to cross off was in the pm I sent you - have you still got it or do you need me to send it again?
    as for the weekly challenges - you can just type it in at the end of your list - do you know how to copy and paste the list from the first post - if you dont send me a pm with what you are stuck with and I will help you out.
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
