    Morning all,
    Thanks for the lists/stars etc :T.
    I am in, but with my own list again- I did copy it in but my ticks show up funny!
    Anyway today I want to:
    1. Do laundry (put away dry stuff, WM, hang up new wet stuff)- WM is on.
    2. Go down the street and get cat food (forgotten yesterday) and ribbon for angel gown.
    3. Finish angel gown and make a dent in DS cardi
    4. Bake ?
    Hope all are well and bye for now.

    I am back in. I was down as new last week but my name is not on any list now, can I be added please Toots?

    I will probably have to play catch up as our windows are getting fitted today and tomorrow and I don't want to waste my energy cleaning for everything to get dusty and do it again. Wait for it...I am going to start my week by tackling the oven once and for all. I will do other bits like that and then play catch up for the rest of the week. I have Friday off so I am determined to finish. The good thing is all the curtains and nets will be cleaned!
