Hi craftyscholar, I can't remember where I read this but what I (try to remember to) do is, get out of bed, pull back the duvet and leave the windows open while I shower - then remake it. So I try to give it about 20 minutes to get a bit of air around the room. Cold in winter but it does seem to make a difference!0 -
Morning all...can't believe it's monday morning again already- where did the weekend go?
My little dd has started full time school this morning, feels a bit strange, don't think it will sink in for a few days that this really is it
I'm planning to do lots of baking this morning so that we've got plenty for lunch boxes and after school snacks , so no point in doing the kitchen till i've finished that!
Got a man in repairing parquet flooring in lounge and dining room so won't be able to do much in there for a day or so
oh dear sounds like i'm making excuses doesn't it?!?!?!?!
i promise i will get on with the list though - don't want to miss out on my starsWord for 2023 …PROACTIVE 🧡 2023 -decluttering campaign 1020/2023 ⭐️⭐️Saving towards paying off car in November…£720/£1500 🚗0 -
Morning all
I'm here and determined to pull myself out of this hibernation mood it's not good.... I think it's because of the changes going on at the moment what with DD moving back and DS and DiL moving out imminently but we don't know when....I'm not particularly good at that sort of change....
Off to do the kitchen..I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

hi there,
Apart from this post I will likely just be lurking this week.
I do have my list though and will be working through it, just using the time to actualy do it instead of posting about doing it iyswim.
