Afternoon all, busy day yesterday so didnt get any flying done. I am completely lost with my lists and what needs doing so I am just going to have a clean through all the downstairs, upstairs is still decent from last weekends blitz so will do that tomorrow.
My dad is picking DS1 up from school, so no school run today. Should be able to get a fair bit done if I get stuck in and dont get distracted by facebook lol.

Going to do HHC starting at 1.30 if anyone wants to join me. Going to start with the living room which is in desparate need.

Thanks so much for the kind words Toots, you are so lovely and warm and it is very much appreciated :T

As for the peg thing (Mine have to be matching on each garment and are hung by size and you MUST put the line away afterwards, even in the rain!), well I must admit that I too have many "special" habits and OH ignores/doesn't notice many of them.:D That is until he had to do everything himself last week and they all leapt onto his radar and nearly blew his fuse.

Rose glad you're feeling better today

Thanks, how are you doing? Thanks everyone for all your kind messages, so sweet of you all!

Finished HHC a bit early as did loads and then wore myself out!

In that HHC, I:
dusted everywhere
tidied LR floor and kitchen floor
hoovered all floors
tried to deweb by throwing a cloth at the cobwebs!
tidied sofa a bit

Phew, the place looks a lot better now! The floor was really messy and needed a hoover desperately! I need to do the bathroom and more in the kitchen but going to have a rest for a while.

How did you get on Hex?

Oddjob nice to see you, how are you?

Hugs Serena

Mudbath hope Stripes is ok


What a shock about Ricky Whittle being arrested, they are going to decide this afternoon if he will be allowed to dance tomorrow.

Afternoon all

Did all the bedrooms on Wednesday and I haven't got any other rooms in this house to substitute (no study or utility room). Don't know if that makes a full week

Hope everyone's Ok. Bye.
