  • Hi, I'm in again. Late posting as had horrible abcess and then tooth extraction yesterday. Well once again the house is in a terribel state. I don't do it no one else does. So shall plod on. Am thinking that I should focus on completing one room a week, at least that way one thing would be finished and therefore (theoretically) easier to maintain. Whatever, will carry on carrying on and one day I will have a reasonably tidy house.

    Afternoon all

    I was going to say I haven't done anything but then I read the list and I did that yesterday, so a star please :)

    I've done a small load of washing just to keep up but so there isn't too much to hang round indoors, it doesn't dry well when there is no heating on.

    Shopping has been delivered and put away, got a couple of things that weren't mine but the driver said keep them, so I did. At least I told her!

    Almost time to start cooking so I'll do some more catching up in a minute.

    Hugs sweetie, can we help in anyway?
    just having one of those days, But i do feel a bit better now after a nice bath and loud music:kisses3:
    ow, we bought a new washing machine a few weeks back and they all come with a GREAT BIG sticker on the front telling you the energy rating etc... problem is.. Ive taken off the sticker but am left with the glue. Amy suggestions to get this off. I dont want to scrub too hard and scratch the front, but its just not coming off and Ive tried almost everything in my cleaning cupboard!!!

    All suggestions welcome!!


    Hugs

    Still waiting for the Surveyor. I've done some list, mopped all the downstairs floors and finished off the LR, the kitchen blinds are hacky on close inspection so putting it off....it means I have to get the step ladders out, move everything off the sink and the benches either side, climb up on my sore knees and scrub them which will make a mess so will have to clean the window after too *whimpers*

    Hellsbells ouchy, big massive huggles for you :grouphug:

    Jinky is it me or is your signature getting bigger....I'm very aware that your Dazco really satifies, it seems to jump out at me every time I read your posts...:rotfl::whistle:


    Actually shopping for christmas pressies now online. Doing quite well, would really like to be done before end of november. May try to work out spend and do an ebay neutral thing whereby what I sell can pay back the money I've spent.

    Other than that I've bought the bin in.
