    I'm trying to be in this week, been terrible lately.
    Been trying also to get some things listed on ebay today because it's the last day of free listing! Had success last week with a couple of items, but this weekend our Turbo Lister broke and I had to reinstall it, then my backup would not work with system restore so I am starting over from scratch. It's a pain to say the least.

    Now I am setting up new templates it won't let me put postage at more than 10p if I make the category DVDs - what's up with that? So I have to increase my start price and select free postage to make up for it!
    No good if you have to pay for listing fees! So I hope to sell these first time.

    I have also done quite a few cleaning bits in other rooms today, as I have the energy. This means that when Pigpen put's the next list(s) up I will be able to (hopefully) do most of what is left.....unless the lovely Pigpen finds a very obscure list of things lol (don't you dare!!! ;)). This way works for me as Monday tends to be a quiet day in terms of other things we do, so it helps to get a big chunk of cleaning done then, and less on the days we have things like Toddlers and such-like on! I won't bother listing all these things individually (although have a reminder list for myself!) but will just tick them off when they appear on list (although may do some of them again if they don't appear until a bit later in the week and are dirty again!). Hope this makes sense lol :o. May get stuck into some knitting this afternoon, or may have a wee nap (!).
    Hope all flyers are doing ok today. x

    Aarrgh!!!! I did the kitchen!!:mad::rolleyes:

    And now I'm pressganging the boys into doing the livingroom. They are just off to buy the new TV they've talked OH into, so I reckon it's their responsibility to make sure the room is clean and tidy for it :D. Looking around, all the stuff on the floors and hearth (no mantel) is theirs anyway. I will water the plant and whisk the vaccuum around, then I shall be a day in advance - I am in school Thursday, and not here Friday, so that will work out quite well.

    We have beautiful sunshine here, so I'm going to potter around the garden I think.

    :bdaycake:Happy birthday Noah!

    OKay in my 2 HHCs I've completed today's list:j - so a star for me please Toots/soappie (and Soappie I can't believe you got up in the middle of the night to grab your post!). I know it's a bit of a shock for everyone that it's finished on the right day and only took me about 1.5 hours but don't expect this every week especially seeing as I'm back at work next week.

    I also hoovered the DR and the kitchen floor while I was at it, put the rubbish out and sorted out some recycling.

    I need to do some ironing but I think I'll have HH relax first.

    Happy Birthday Noah and Zoe's DD!:bdaycake:

    Dailies done
    Sown green manure

    Just going to sort lunch and then off to the maise maze before it gets chopped down.

    Wilf and Ag I'll spur you on. I really want to get the sorting/decluttering finished once and for all before half term, NCT sale and ebabying to be included. I then want to try to get DS2 room decorated before Christmas so quite a task on! Can we do it? Yes we can!
