I'm not sure I have ever seen the various flakes in the supermarket (or maybe just not been in the right place)

Another day so far of managing bu**er-all!! (that looks like "butter all":rotfl:)
Wm on, TD on really should do some ironing but we all know how I feel about THAT! :eek:
Think I might try and stick to the lists this week a bit better and squeeze in HHI (or even an hour!) each day instead!!!
*pull breeches up* I WILL be organised this week... downstairs isnt too bad but as for upstairs...:eek::eek::eek: the kids rooms...well *shakes head* you'd have to see them to believe them!!!
Will it be the kitchen on the list for monday again? Im hoping not, cos mine is pretty much done!!! Might tackle something upstairs instead, in anticpation of another day from the lists!!
Everyone seems to be doing really well the last couple of days that Ive been on here! Well done you lot!:T:j
Now, to find something interesting to do that doesnt involve ironing!!!
Thats actually given me a thought (I seem to be in ramble mode, sorry!!)
Im always moaning that I dont have any interests/hobbies...what do YOU do as a pleasurable activity?? (keep it CLEAN!!! this is a family establishment!!:rotfl:)I cant sew nor do crafts, I DO read quite a lot, but need something to interest me.. would love to hear what you girls do...

afraid my pleasures are clean as I am a virtuous singleton.
My 'hobbies' such as they are are ironing LOL
I am an avid reader; I make jam because I enjoy making it (must be the alchemist in me, I'm an ex-lab technician) and my newest pleasure is hiking in the Derbyshire Dales. Don't even need to schlep out to the Peak District, although I might well do, one day. I go to the theatre and cinema on occasion.
Oh and I like wine too!
I could do with nipping into the country park and collecting some sloes for sloe gin.
Which reminds me that new Meryl Streep film, Julie and Julia, looks VERY good...
And Grateful I am STILL chuckling about the Y7 and the non lighting bunsen burner:rotfl:Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
