crafty - wow - it's a gorgeous room but so not me (it's pink for starters!!). Mine's the complete opposite.

Not my taste in colour either - I picked it for the cushion display.

MOJ2 - very impressed with the printer bargain - I would be struggling even with the instructions.

I'm having one of those 'wandering from room to room carrying things' afternoons. Trouble is when you start to re-organise things get worse before they get better.

Hello everyone, have hardly been on all week so hope evryone is ok. Will try and read a bit back later but think I will find 30 pages impossible so hugs to all who need them.
Triker are you feeling better yet?
Greenbee did you get the job? and i never found out why you bake so may cakes!!
Jo still staying positive I hope
Toots out of hospital yet?

I have done lots of flying yesterday, partly because the weahter was so poor and because we had another 2 viewings on our house so it looks lovely. I also had no ironing pile until about half an hour ago when I fetched the washing in:rotfl:only about a HHI worth though so will get out of way tonight.
We have had another offer on our house which we have until Monday to decide on or not, but the house we wanted to buy has gone :mad: so we have 4 to look at today. The first was lovely. 3 more to go:rolleyes:, just hope we agree on somewhere so we can accept offer and get moving (if only it were that simple). Right off to declutter a coffee and catch up.

Hi! Have been a busy Ginger Girl today so far. Have attacked the dust bunnies and sorted out the mountain of toys under DD2s bed (den type thing). Have also put some stuff away in loft and caught up with all the washing. Next job is to vacuum bag some bedding to make some more space in cupboard. (I know the plan was kitchen cupboard - got a bit sidetracked!!!!) Have also been on organizedhome.com to get some ideas on how I can sort out morning chaos for September. DD1 needs to be at the bus stop for 7.25 so we are going to need to be MUCH more organised! Anyone use the launchpad idea?????

Hugs to all in need - right, back to slay more dust bunnies!

yay on the dust bunny slaying. I am being quite lazy sitting on my butt making lists and looking at paint colours. Our hallway is totally internal with no windows and is currently a light coffee colour with white skirting and a cream carpet. Thinking of changing it to a nice mint green colour. I think that might brighten it up alot.

has anyone got some spare motivation, I seem to have lost mine!

Was going to attack the spare room, but the usual meal time battle has seriously dented my mood.

Hung washing out - ten minutes later it starts raining not proper rain just enough that I don't want to leave it out.:mad:

Toots should be out tomorrow.

I've got a FOURTH (and hopefully final:rolleyes:) interview for the job on Friday. I make cakes for relaxation

Well done on keeping the house in show-home order. Hope the offer is what you need, and good luck with finding somewhere to move to.

Downstairs done. Washing in and folded. Clouds coming over... so do I walk to the post office, mow the grass, hoover upstairs or sit around doing nothing again

Triker - sorry to hear you couldn't go out last night. If you're not up to it tonight, how about getting hubby to order a nice takeaway, get a DVD and spend some time together quietly? I think you're going to need to start delegating more, so how about using the energy you do have to write instructions, set up online shopping lists etc, so that the family can help out easily? Is there anything we can help with?

Good idea re tonight, I'm just desperate to do something 'normal', even if it will be at 1 mph.:o

Your thoughts are great re lists and delegating....will do, we're good for most things as I'm a stockpiler....hence the mess.;):D

Only thing you guys can do is just keep being here and don't too disappointed about my lack of flying.I'll do what I can.xxx

ours is mint green with white ceilings and skirtings no windows except small one in the front door

the colour looks lovely and fresh and bright even though the space is dark
