Hi, Toots asked me to do this :xmastree: to let you know I'm in too!
Is that what you meant toots?
I did loads today, got ds and dh in the garden with me, didn't get the front patch sorted much more than cutting some lavender to swap for my very dried out lavender! Kept all the heads to either make some drawer smellies or in with the pot pourri's(sp.?) But I did get plants in ground, deweeded, dh took some more layers of grass away for veg patch as the ground was soft. DS loved helping, got his 1st pair of wellies completely covered in mud! And himself!
We had take out, so I loaded dw, I also did HHI, whilst we watched dvd. I now need to go put washing in TD and fetch washing in, more HHI tomorrow. Take ironing up, when I go to bed. Need to look at what cakes/muffins I want to bake with all the extra eggs I bought yesterday, so I can do my shopping in the morning and bake in the afternoon. Whist fitting in my 1st day flyladying!
Hope everyone else has had a good sunday. TFx0 -

Good luck this week toots. Hope to see you back refreshed and recovered at the end of the week, full of beans and ready to crack the whip!
I'm sure Pigpen & soappie will keep us in order while you're away, but its not the same...
Ironing done, so all laundry is clean (till I change for bed!), and apart from a few odds & ends drying in the bathroom, is dry, ironed and in the airing cupboard or put away.
Maybe I should put the ironing board away!
I'm going to have to tackle the study this week... there are bits of paper that need dealing with (house insurance) and I have to get it all done before my next work trip...

In again this week. Energy levels are still high (feel like an over charged battery:o) My body's in shock, its been so long since I even felt energetic let alone was:T.
Yesterday DD1 went to respite (back monday pm) today DD2 went to ex's (back tuesday)
I went and visited friends and then cleaned 2/3 of lounge carpet its amazing to see what its real colour is, light green not muddy brown. Just need to change kitty litter before bed (its stinking) Feeling suitably tired now. Hope this continues, I'm begining to see light at the end of the tunnel after 5 long years of pain tirednness and constant illnesses:j
Thanks to Pigpen et al for keeping us going.
