    I do one load of washing every night, washing machine has a timer so I set it to come on at 2am so we utilise cheap night time electricity. By doing one load every night I keep on top of it and never have a huge pile to do, just hang it out first thing or on airers this time of year. Occasionally I have to do an extra load on weekend if I've changed all the sheets or washed all the dog blankets. I don't really do ironing just odd bits every couple of weeks, we have clothes that look ok if hung to dry!
    There is no issue so small that it can't be blown out of proportion

    Morning all I am in. Thanks to Pigpen toots and Soappie for the lists and stars.


    Rach- at least DH has told you how he is feeling. Other people's children can always be difficult as they may have been brought up differently and they are not as emotionally attached to them as your own children.As other said. Talk.


    Need to check some things of the list.

    Why are walls nver straight need to put a plank of wood up on wall and the wall is so bent . Oh well

    I don't like children really but adore my own! Well I like a few others, but not many

    I've tied the whole house and done the outside bits like rubbish and compost out, letter posted etc whilst we have a break in the clouds.

    Jinky - hugs sweetie - do you want to share being miserable - where is Pooh - I like to sit in her corner and poke sticks at people when I feel like this!

    Duck, everyone I'm clearing my pm box and sending messges!

    #Not a thing.. do you want my spare cat?

    You know me always happy to help out but I fear my dog may well eat it for it's dinner if my OH didn't throw it out before hand (he hates cats), but any other spares you fling I'll have ;)
