    Afternoon all

    One load of washing done today, dried and put away.

    Cut the grass back and front.

    I'm cooking the dinner now but this afternoon I'm going to do my final sweep of the house looking for stuff I don't need. I can see lots of stuff I don't need, but it's DH's so he might object.......

    Going to finish catching up. I read some last night and I know there are things I was going to say but I've been to sleep since then. Anyway, congratulations and commiserations - take what you need please ;)

    Hi just wanted to say that I read with great interest lots of the posts and find all the help and information so helpful but my problem is sometimes i just cannot be bothered I work full time shift work and when im at work i dont get a lot of time at home and when im off i am so tired it takes me 2 days to get over my working week and then i have one day left before i go back to work my home is not very messy as i am not one for collecting things one of my worse habits is letting the ironing mount up just wanted to have a moan about it hopre that is ok all you flyers are just so good i will carry on reading and hope it rubs off Rachael xx
    Hi still have debts to clear :mad: working towards a DFL my family have grown over the last 2 years I very proud to say I now have 3 beautiful Grandchildren :T My DF fight continues :):):):):)
