    Feel bad that I don't keep up with the thread, I hope you don't mind :o

    I hope you're all ok, please grab a hug as you pass as always!

    Morning all
    I'm in again today...DD still not right, so off school again today. Temperature still high, but she's had a good night's sleep and is in much better spirits. Bless her...she's hogging the bath at the moment and sounds quite happy. Thanks for your good wishes.

    In addition to today's list, I have a couple of other things to do - post letters, finish removing wooden 'trimming' from the tops of my kitchen cupboards (what's it there for? Who knows, it certainly doesn't add to the aesthetic of the room), start writing those Aussie Christmas cards and continue with the general clutter clearance. Oh yes, and bake a cake/biscuits for when my sister and nephew visit today.

    Finally, my house is starting to get into some kind of shape.

    Right, on with it
    See you later

    Morning all.

    Well Done on your visit t Toots. Hope she isn't working you too hard :D.

    Have done most of the list from yesterday and will make a start on todays lit later.

    DS isn't going to school today as he has a temperature and is very sluggish. Hoping he might perk up later.

    Well done on getting the living room and hall done :T:T:T As for the books, you're not the only one... :rolleyes: I'm completely out of bookshelf space now, so have to be brutal. Hex, however, has started offering a book-sitting service which includes a complete check for missing words :p

    Didn't manage to get as much done this morning as I'd hope (there's a surprise), but the spareroom, bathroom, hall, kitchen, sitting room and loo are looking pretty respectable (even if they need a clean). The bedroom is still full of clothes that need sorting, the study needs filing and ironing doing so it can be dusted & wiped, and the utility room is pretty filthy but I can't see myself managing to get much more done before the end of the week now...

    Now where's my list??? How come it's not getting any shorter?

    Clean through the cupboard full of food.. what needs using soon? Need to sort the cake-decorating cupboard!
    Extras

    3. Wash the windows - one down, one to go
    Dry washing sorted, another load in WM. Hall/kitchen/loo/utility hoovered. Better go and make my packed lunch before getting dressed.
