Good Morning Everyone

not quite as early as some - Soappie and Carlsberggal - but still early for me.

DD has to be taken to Lincoln for her new job - has to be there by 9 and doesn't finish unitl 6. DS is out at a mates house so the house will be mine - heaven - first time in about 6 years..........

Still house is a tip and i have decided that it can wait so I am going to the garden centre for some gardening gloves and then I am going to tackle the dreaded ground elder. A friend at work has given me some industrial strength weed killer that should do the job but it is nasty stuff so must be careful!!

I will do some washing in between as it is lovely here at the moment - will it last??

I also have to pick up the Dyson I won on Ebay from Spalding - so guess whose running around sunny Lincolnshire today.

I am up too. Been up for a few mins - long enough to strip DS bed and get half of it in the WM (the sheet is red and has to go in by itself as it still dyes other stuff pink), make a cuppa, empty cat food bowl and load in to DW and chuck some other bits in DW ready to go on.

Hope everyone is feeling brighter and more positive this morning (there sure has been some poo flung around the flyladies this week)
