Soappie - thanks for the book!! Its arrived so DS is now even more keen to get on with the first one.... Im not sure how long it will take; he normally reads only 2 or 3 pages at a time, but will return it as soon as we are done.

Love n hugs to you and beffy boo.

Flying - have set up the ironing board and hung two loads of washing on the line......its quickly getting overcast outside but hopefully it will dry enough before it starts tipping it down :rolleyes: anyway.....on with the ironing

I would LOVE to rehome the cookbooks for you.....minus the spider! (if they havent already gone?!)

They're all yours!

I've hoovered the whole of upstairs, including the skirting boards and window sills. Dewebbed everywhere and am nearly done on wiping down all the paintwork with tea-tree oil. I'm not going to be done in time for my 11am appointment, so I'll have to do some stuff when I get back, but I'm pleased with my progress.

Won't have time to do my ironing today, but there's not a huge amount so I can catch up next week

Magnificent Monday ~ Kitchen and Dining area:
All done :j
Tuesdays Tidemark! ~ Living room, Hall, Stairs and Porch!:
All done :j
Wiggly Wednesday ~ Master Bedroom and landing:
All done :j
Thursday Thrills ~ Bathroom, loo and Study:
All done :j
Friday funtime! ~ Little bit of everything that needs doing!
Level One: done
Level Two: none of the list needs doing (nothing left to declutter, except DS's stuff to sell on ebay and that will need a whole day at it, a non-sore back and also me being able to let go of lots of his little clothies- not quite ready yet for the emotional side of that one!, and don't need to bake just now) and cannot find a substitute :rolleyes:
Level Three: still to- Wipe out one kitchen cupboard

Just to put WM on and hang up, clean a kitchen cupboard (starting again from the first one- cereal and lentil one today ). Also if I can find a substitute for Friday level 2 I might do that! Hope to make some cards with DS today too at some point, and prepare healthy lunch and dinners!

Maybe you could make something for dinner which is baked in the oven - such as a stew or a quiche? Or cook something for dinner that you REALLY like and that you haven't had for a while? This is what I'll do I think

I took out 'smokey BBQ' sausages last night and I plan to have them with some HM potato wedges and corn cobs. I don't tend to list making dinner on my lists as I just do it without thinking of it as a job iyswim, and I enjoy cooking!
Thanks though :T. I'd love to bake today (especially with the mention of pesto and cheese scones!, but really it would be wasteful and/or greedy as enough in the kitchen right now!).
Hugs to all the ladies who need them and take care all of you flyers.
