You are right Toots, it's just that once I started thinking of things I need to do I realised that there are quite a lot! I've only got 5 things on my list now tho. You can't blame me for being a bit enthusiastic about the new challenge!

toochoosey

ok, wasn't on my list, although it could be classed as a hotspot....sorting through a bag of odd socks/big/small bras that I have been putting off for ages....yep I think it qualifies as a hotspot on my list of extras....so I'm going to empty it onto table and sort..............

lilysue I hope DS2 copes ok and has a great time - how long is he away?


toots xx

He'll be back Thursday afternoon Toots....thought that was a good length of time for his first big trip away. I think once he gets there he'll be fine...he's going to be incredibly busy which will help, they're going to Auschwitz, a salt mine!, and one of the big national parks, plus they're actually staying in Krakow, which is supposed to be a very pretty city.

Okay I have left my bathroom bin draining in the bath after scrubbing it, off to replace it and wash the bathroom floor........

kazwookie

Blimey you have all been busy.

Owing to the hugh amount of rain, I have just mopped out the workshop and the rain came in under the door, all other flying is on hold at the moment, whilst I sort this out.

I have moved everything up off the floor, so now I can brush the rain out if need be. it only floods when it really chucks it down, 'normal' rain is ok!

Five things....

1 - learn to write a macro (well re learn/revise really)
2 - hair appointment (pre interview)BOOKED FOR THURSDAY
3 - clear out old make up which I know I have had for too long...ahem *cof*
4 - [STRIKE]update fluffing bank account[/STRIKE] and send money to friend for theatre tickets
5 - [STRIKE]Post letter about parking fine (s'on the forum if you're interested...)[/STRIKE]
6 - sort out paperwork for interview

5 was too easy really as I had already written it

Are old fashioned paper driving licences sufficent ID proof OR shall I take my passport too?

Carlsberg and Jinky

Note what Pigpen said...once you are in a routine HHCs can 'do' for most rooms especially if you have decluttered. Some weeks I do my bathroom and my kitchen and my living room, with a bonus level one in the dining room. I also do them to suit ME and my work pattern so it's usually kitchen+bathroom on Thursdays...in all honesty if you have decluttered that in itself makes a huge difference I have found...oh and I always change the beds on fridays even if I don't dust in those rooms...
Mind you I clean the kitchen more thoroughly now than I used too. My favourite to clean is the bathroom and my lounge (I think the word is minimalist) can be level three'd in a HHC and that includes vacuuming the sofas....

KazW - hugs for your kitchen problem - like my drains - regular rain in fine it is just when it chucks it down.

Sorted out the freezer and rinsed out the drawers - I'll put defrost it on my list next week.

Just going to sort out the tuperware which won't fit back in the cupboard whilst dinner is cooking

New Weekly Challenge...

1. Sign up for next OU Courses (ME624 &ME627 plus one other 10 pointer) DONE
2. Sort out ILA funding part done need to wait on forms from the above phone call.
3. OU assignment at least first chapter answered.

Will do the floor after tea, I have also lined the tops of the cupboard with newspaper this afternoon - thanks for that tip. Phoned OU and have sorted out my courses for the next year, the girl was very helpful and even confirmed that if I manage them all then I will be finished by 010710:j

going to start on tea in a mo, and will sort out the last of the filing while its cooking.

Valli - I would take your passport too. Everyone seems manic about ID nowadays and they want your photo driving licence if you have one. I don't have anything and have terrible trouble proving I exist......

TAG

Wow........you know what ........I do the most exciting things on my burfday's. I've excelled myself on this one cos I've spent most of the day in the oven:rolleyes:

Well not actually in it......... but it is much cleaner now than it was when I plucked up the courage to tackle it this morning. It was seriously minging. :eek::eek: Dirty so and so's that lived here before me can't have ever cleaned the darned thing. It's not 100% immaculate but I'd say 95% there.:D:D:D:D

Thank you all for that burfday wishes everyone!!

Right off to find and update my list. Sit and have a huggle with DD for half an hour and then I must do something with DS's bedding, that Sweepy dog puked over last night! YUK!!!:rolleyes:
