    Evening all

    Haven't sat down long, but guessed it might be the kitchen and so have made some inroads into the list :). Leftover roast from yesterday for dinner, then I've washed up, put laundry on, done some of the list and taken the chicken apart (boiling up for stock as we speak) and prepped the rest of the chicken and veg for soup. Quite impressed - from my £3 yellow stickered large M&S chicken we've done roast for 4 last night, 2 tonight and there's loads left to go in the soup for tomorrow.

    Just off to catch up with the thread...

    Grrrrrr.....

    I havent caught up with the thread, Im just coming on for motivation and to put a ginger dog up for sale!!!!!!!!!!

    Ive cleared out littleys room and he is off to bed, I have totally cleared out the spare room, but the stuff that has no where to go is in the bed. Except the suitcases which are open on the floor and Im packing all my summer stuff away into.

    I have hauled all the xmas presents out from under my bed, and shoes and handbags - which really have nowhere else to go!

    The dog has decided to start jumping over everything and getting in my face for kisses and cosys - im going to kill him!!!

    HHI
    Will have a better go tomorrow night. rosepink well done but still lots to do! Why dont you focus just on that room this week and get it spotless, borrow your neighbours hoover and get it totally spick, you'll feel brill and the bd will turn from a big labrador into a poodle. Then next week you could nominate another room to blitz if you have another which you need to tackle? keep going though girl:T
    Am off upstairs to tidy up after my packing session and to label the boxes before i forget what I put in them:rotfl:
    and no so much chatting tomorrow you lot!;)
