    Evening all

    Ironing all done
    Washing on the maiden

    I'm bushed now so off to bed, expecting a visit from AF tomorrow. Going out for a scone at JL first thing (I am royalty after all according to PenPen) and then the queen has her post op check up so the flying will be minimal - Room of Doom is my aim tomorrow - even if it is only half an hour.

    Welcome back Jill and good luck - join some of us on the wii fit thread if you want inspiration.

    Looks like DS2 and I will still be off tomorrow. May need to take him to the doctor's, if tummy ache doesn't disappear. It's DH's day off, so we'll have company. The bathroom, living room, kitchen and stairs are fine for the moment and our bedroom can wait - so I'll try to have a go at the RsOD now and tomorrow. Last chance to get them done.

    MUST DOS BEFORE FRIDAY TEA TIME
    (bits in red are done)
    1. clean the main bits of the bathroom, incl the floor
    2. declutter and mop the kitchen floor
    3. declutter a chair in the living room and wipe the fire place
    4. tidy the dining room to the point where we can use it
    5. clear my stuff out of DS1's room (it used to be our bedroom) and ideally finish painting the walls
    6. declutter the floor and desk in DS2's room
    7.
    dig out the home insurance documents and claim for the stuff in the freezer, if possible not worth it, due to high excess
    8. get the freezer repaired (fingers crossed) –
    coming to have a look at it on Thursday
    9. write a list for DH to work through on his day off (Thursday)
    10. put clean and dry washing away

    11. wipe freezer inside and out
    12. clean walls, skirting and floor behind freezer

    ME!!

    Buy bar of chocolate.. smash into squares.. freeze...

    When you want chocolate.. take out one square... and suck it to death.. you get so bored sucking it you don't go get another square out!

    That or for every bite of chocolate you have you have to have a spoonful of tabasco sauce.. straight after.. the association soon makes you hate both!

    Welcome back!

    I have loaded both WM's
    folded a load of laundry
    sorted the uniforms
    Mucked out bunnies

    OH..

    Fed the cats
    loaded the DW
    Emptied kittens poo tray.
