  • Well HHC turned into Hour! Got loads done though:

    BR floor decluttered, chest of drawers decluttered. Finally sorted out that odd sock bag!
    DS clothes that are now too small all folded on bed ready to go in blackbag in loft, already used 2 of those jumbo sized vacu bags since he was born!

  • Weather is now cloudy with drizzle! :( it started off so nice..

    Have spent the entire morning queuing for Council Tax claim, but finally managed all docs etc. Hate filling in forms!

    Kazm wonderful news! Congrats to your DH, the flylady force was with him.

    Did my HHI, tho started to run out of things to iron cos I've managed to keep on top of it, so started grabbing things off the airer that were still a bit damp to iron!!

    Just had my lunch, the last 2 tubes of canelloni left from Monday with some ryvita and salad (though not technically tubes, just rolled up value lasagne sheets - much cheeper!), which means Mondays dinner did 2 big portions for that nights dinner (1 for me and 1 for DH) and 2 littler portions for yesterday and todays lunch. Not bad me thinks! Plus got the last of Sundays chicken in the SC with some stock, veg etc... ready to blitz up some soup which will do dinner tonight, and then tomorrow and Fridays lunch for me, so on top of last nights chicken stir fry, I think I've done bloomin good with my meals this week!

    I've also started to wonder how I actually had time to work before! All this domestic godess stuff takes time!

    I can now get my list down to .....

    Clear a sticky dishevelled cupboard
    Level Three
    [STRIKE]Wipe the table and replace the cloth if necessary.[/STRIKE] ummm... we don't actually have a dining table! We are of the very un-couth (sp??) variety who eat on our knees :o
    [STRIKE]HHI
