Good Night All - I'm All done today
I have never got two stars in one week so rather chuffed. Ex OH moving out has made life so much easier. Will be a few weeks before I get a star for any of the bedrooms though. But it's all heading in the right direction.
DS even helped me sort through his DVD's and games this morning and allowed some to go to the charity shop. This is a MAJOR breakthrough......
I'm off for an early night with a copy of Good Food Mag I decluttered from my Mum's house. It's so nice to be cooking and eating the food I want to eat. Being single has a lot of benefits.Toxic & Tired - Starting 2010 afresh :beer:0 -

Valli - that was a good sale! What was it?
s'not off topic - it's ACE decluttering - what a result - buys it for 50p and flogs it for £13.50; which will pay for half a tap in the grand Valli bathroom refit and is VERY moneysaving so there ***stamps foot***

Anyone applied for a job at tesco before

Other things to do...
GARDENING!!!
Scales for Zoe
Set up mastercard DD
Clear utility room junk
Decide what to do about kitchen curtains
Choose side table for kitchen
Tip
Post Delia books to Jo - packed and ready to go
Make & freeze cake sponge for next week (10" round?) & check for drum
Pressure-wash patio
Make proper money-spending list and start getting quotes
File the additional paperwork found when looking for bubblewrap earlier :rolleyes:
Do the ironing before it needs washing to get the creases out...
Today's cake is in the freezer (apart from the leftover bits, they'll go in tomorrow... I'll have to make a big trifle sometime...), and the kitchen has been decrumbed. I've been to the reflexologist and had something to eat while catching up on here. Suppose I should get ready for the gym tomorrow and make my bed!
ETA Quillion - there are no right or wrong answers to the test, it depends on what kind of person they are looking for at the time. Answer it honestly and you (hopefully) will end up in a job that suits you.0 -
