*Jellie*

Hi!
Can I join in please? I can't find a xmas tree to add!!

I'm trying to get my house ready to get it valued in order to sell it. Was aiming to get everything done this week so this could be perfect thread to help me focus!!

My weekly challenge will be
1. Go through every room in the house and recycle/ bin etc as many items as possible!
2. Paint wardrobe doors
3. Wash carpets
4. Put new flooring in kitchen
5. Paint outside cupboard doors

Should keep me busy!
Right- off to the kitchen to get started!!

Well in my last HHC i did the fridge, chucked out a whole load of stuff:o
Not very OS I know, but it was beyond redemption.

There is a bag of carrots that can be saved, I am gonna chop them all after lunch
Or I might make a carrot cake:T

I also made my lunch:D

:mad: oh no, I tried to quote somebody and it said 'thanks for hitting the spam button' :eek:. Is there a way to un-spam ?
Anyway in my HHC I hung out the washing and put the two small (whoopsied) loaves in the freezer, as well as putting other shopping away.
Off to deal with DS's bum now (can smell from here....sorry tmi!).
x :wave:

:xmastree:I would like to join in please. I haven't been flying for a long time, too busy with work, but I need to get back into it. First day of the holidays for me today (I am a teacher) and the house is shocking. I have two weeks before we go away so if I join in for two weeks it should be more under control before we go away.
The length of the thread is already extraordinary, I will do my best to keep up!

OS - if you look at the spam button again you'll see it should now say 'not spam', so you can hit it again. Don't worry, it needs lots of requests for it to be picked up, as they know it can be accidental.

Me - it sounds as if you too ill to be flying. I suggest that you go to bed with a trashy novel and see whether you can get some sleep. If your nerves are feeling the way you describe, then rest should help. I don't want to give medical advice, but it sounds very much like a flu-type symptom.

At work... I've managed to find something interesting to do which may result in a trip to Edinburgh at the end of next week, so I could check up on Toots at the weekend ... here's hoping I can blag it... I haven't been to Edinburgh for years (and if I do go, hopefully I can arrange to meet a few other Scottish flyladies too!)

Comments in pink, much appreciated .

Ok just back from asda takes about 15 mins to walk each way and i must say it was hard work on way back as it's quite hilly. I feel better for it though as had a bit of a weekend binge so back to being relatively healthy again today. Little one asleep so off to start on kitchen. I was very good and used some of my coupons and even got some nice flowers which i have put in a vase on the kitchen window ledge.

Afternoon ladies :hello:

So far today i haven't started the kitchen but have done 3 loads of washing all pegged out and 1 load brought in, although i now need to keep an eye on it as it looks like rain won't be long:rolleyes:

Dinner is cooking and will be ready for 2:30ish so i will start on the kitchen once we have eaten.

Also i need to think what we can do with the kids this afternoon, if the weather is nice then its going to be easy, play in the garden, if not then i am thinking of play doh and making food for a shop?

Hope everyone is well x

Take care :wave:

Well, I have made a start on the kitchen. Its gonna take longer than I first thought as it has just taken me 20 minutes to sort and clear one section of worktop!!! Need to get the dishes washed and put away then I can make some serious headway in there.
Kids fighting evertime I turn my back IS NOT helping matters.
Right, off to do those dishes then.
