    Someone help.... I am rapidly disappearing under the stuff coming out of this damn cupboard - how can so much stuff be contained in such a small space...? And what the hell am I going to do with it all???!

    Humph. Got that off my chest so back to it. G&T will be my reward...

    Charity shop, Freecycle or bin?

    I am very jealous of the G&T. I'm sipping a rather sour glass of wine.

    Think most of it will fall into the last category! :rotfl: Though have unearthed some camping gear we had lost which is useful as we are planning a camping trip later in the month.

    Beer had (needed the refreshment :D). G&T still waiting....

    I thought I was doing really well with my chores today. However, it was all scuppered by the heavens opening just as the washing machine beeped to tell me the towels were washed! Typical!!! And it had been sunny up til that point!

    RATS!

    Oh dear! Rain has stayed away here at least.

    My cupboard is beautiful - I have a vacuum cleaner and an old gazebo to freecycle, a load of stuff to chuck out and a few things put back neatly. Shame it is the tidiest place in the house!:rotfl::rotfl:

    Had another beer instead of a G&T in the end - G&T tomorrow.

    Well I didn't get everything done yesterday but that was probably as much because the list was unrealistic as the fact that I was on here a few times too often! Note to self: try to make lists achieveable!

    So for today:
    • [STRIKE]Check all OK with internet banking[/STRIKE] All ok and as expected
    • [STRIKE]Daily scratches[/STRIKE] 20p less for me to find (to quote hypno! ;))
    • [STRIKE]Start pad by rounding to nearest £5 of balance each day[/STRIKE] £2.80 paid off card
    • [STRIKE]Hoover[/STRIKE] and mop [STRIKE]kitchen floor[/STRIKE] Didn't manage mopping but got rid of dog hair!
    • Print and send off life assurance papers
    • [STRIKE]List two things on freecycle[/STRIKE] Listed - and both have takers within minutes so more stuff out the house! :T
    • [STRIKE]Put stuff up in loft[/STRIKE] Feels better.
    • Five [STRIKE]items from work to do list[/STRIKE] Didn't manage 5 but cleared a couple!
    Have a good day everyone

    :j Just been offered a 0% for 12 months with NO FEE balance transfer deal from my bank - checking small print but this could be perfect to clear the couple of high interest cards we have left!
