Hugs and good health vibes for Mudders and her son and for Triker's friend too x
Have had a quick tidy round and wash up. Am going to get up a stepladder now and wash down the walls in the kitchen so that they can be painted - think it will take about 1.5 hours as must move things as I go.
See you all later xI'd rather be watching CSI!0 -
Hi:j
Friday ~ Childrens pits, spare rooms or other neglected places!
Level One
Strip those beds, wash bedding and replace.. turn mattresses and vacuum if not done in a while. Hang duvets to air. Found fold up bed - knew it was in there somewhere
Straighten a shelf units/bookcase Books packed into boxes
Level Two
Tidy a cupboard of clothing or just any cupboard Tidied up 1 wardrobe
Declutter the flat surfaces Nope
Vacuum floor Vacuumed about half of it
Level Three
Wipe walls and paintwork of sticky marks Nope
Put away all the clothes and toys that are strewn about Put away some clothes
Dust and deweb did a little
Extras- Clear out any clothing that no longer fits.. or won't by next summer!
- HHI
- Check coats/boot etc ready for winter... make sure they can wrap up warm without the wrists hanging out and broken zips
- Dispose/rehome any toys that are outgrown or broken
The poor room is trying to be too many things - it has my two wardrobes in it (one I couldn't open until today because of the books piled in front!) so it could be one of those posh dressing rooms do you think?? ERM NO - it also has a x-trainer, power plate machine (brill for testing fillings), a bookcase, a computer table (no computer but 2 printers), a table for doing sewing on (LOL), fold up bed, loads of teaching resources/paperwork (I haven't taught my own subject for nearly 2 years and only do very occasional supply), all the paperwork/research for freelance project management work/jobs I've done for various organisations over the last 5 years, crafty stuff, decorating stuff, step ladder, clothes airer, a 2 drawer filing cabinet and a load of debris that I can't quite reach to identify. Oh, and a bar stool.
BUT, I can confirm that the carpet in there is green!

Good grief
I went to put a cardi on as I am somewhat cold (and I already have thick tights and slippers on - talk about glamour) anyhoo, DS came home.
And I am getting colder.
So I wander to kitchen
AND THE BACK DOOR IS WIDE OPEN.

Are you all sitting comfortably?
Well.. I just took Tiddles to the quack.. she has this thing on her knuckle of her middle finger which is gradually getting bigger and she says is sore.. anyway I felt rather a fraud taking her as it looks like nothing... and she has to have an operation to remove it.. It isn't anything serious but will get bigger and is a chance of infection... and I was right.. it is a cyst on the tendon.
Flying wise.. I put the recycling out and OH loaded unloaded and reloaded the DW.. I decluttered a cheque from the insurance into my bank account.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
