I have written, well sent an email, to the Agents....so thankfully have done that 1 thing on my list. I wasnt sure what I was supposed to write, so have just told them where the dog will sleep, explained hes well behaved, been to behaviour school, doesnt bark unless someone comes to the door (which is true). The downstairs in my house is laminate flooring, but will clean all of the carpets even though the dog will rarely be there etc etc. Guess I will just need to see what they say.
Ive also thought of a million things that I need to do, which always happens while Im at work, and then I forget when I get home! So have added them on while I remember!
Dont panic Toots - I am not planning to do them all right away! Just reminding myself!
xxxx
ETA - RANT ALERT: I am absolutely sick to the back teeth of the agents. They dont like me cos I will stand up to them regarding my rights in the property (as opposed to the old bag neighbour) so every time I phone the office I get the run around. incompetent witch on a power trip :rolleyes:

I have vacuumed the living room. I know I am not suposed to and now my back is kiling me but I couldn't stand the dog hair everywhere.
Forgot to say earlier that DH has a job!! Started today, and is able to come home for lunch which will save cash and he can hang out washing etc. It might only be for a week but a week is much better than nothing. I just hope they don't pay in cash as it just gets 'frittered away' as my mum used to say.business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527

Soappie hope you have a lovely day
Also if you want to pop in here for a cuppa on your way to Toots then my house is open to you and BB. Although I'm not sure whether you will go via North Kent or whether you will bypass it..
Good luck Valli, keeping fingers crossed for you.
Helenjelly many congratulations on your happy day. May you have many years with your new DH.
Pigpen hugs for your loss on gran-in-law.
jjinky have a lovely time with DazcoCongratulations mummyof5
Toots, I really don't know what to say honey. But I am glad you have told us. Everyone else has said what I am thinking and want to say, so much more eloquently than me. I don't know but for some reason I was wondering whether this would be the outcome when you was talking about your chemo. I don't know why though..Please do post up your wish list and we can all help you achieve this over time. I do wish I lived closer to you so that I could come up there and give you a huge hug instead of a virtual one. And don't worry about eggshells I don't do eggshells..lol.

Hi Everyone.
I've been absent for a few weeks as things in general have gone wrong in a few ways and i've had a rubbish virus which is finally going as of today by the feel of it, so apologies for my absence and lack of cleaning. My house looks like a building site in places as my kitchen is yet to be finished so i can't do today's list as i have no sink, no work surfaces and my fridge is in the garage. So i think i will do my general list today. This comprises of:- Washing x 2 loads
- Hoover all staircases and hallways
- Washing up (which is being done in the bathroom, gross)
- Ironing as much as possible
- General Decluttering in places.
- Also need to get on with the filing as there is mountains of it.
Toots-Really sorry to hear your news, I'm sure you will complete your wish list!!!
Mummyof5-Congratulations on the new addition, i like the name, very unique!!
I will catch up where i can but feel i must crack on with sorting out the hovel that is my house.
Tink xDebt to clear: feels endless...
Weight loss to go: 42lb/13.5lb
Maybe someday i'll be skinny, organised and debt free..

Mudbath, here's some
for Stripes. I hope she heals quickly and isn't in too much pain after her operation. It must have been awful for you and her when she did it. Thank gods for your quick thinking and the nice man who took you to your vet.
