Penny I have half joined you because

I wasn't quite finished, but now I am yay every box from the LR/DR is now unpacked!!! :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:jBox for DSs each of their stuff to go upstairs, box of DS1s books, half a one of our stuff then the boxes to go to the garage, crate of books I will put on the shelf in a mo & 8....yes 8 bin bags to go (in garage until bin space/tip run as someone said the tip is closed) I am grinning again just to be through it. Some stuff was inside toy crates in the boxes so we now have 8 more for the boys presents they get. Trying to decide where to put my basic looking mail sorting box, think I will see if there is room in the DR cabinet.

Oh the last load of washing from the mountain is now done so once the TD is done that can go in & that will be all caught up with too :j. I have put empty washing baskets in everyones room, no more excuses. Just need to put it all away/sock sort which I hate.

Ok, next job, fold the done laundry, take upstairs (will put away once it is all done) take boxes up & clear some junk.....HHC 3.30pm for anyone who wants to

Okay I've still got quite a bit to do. I've done quite a bit of ironing this afternoon - it isn't finished but unless DH does any tomorrow the rest will have to wait until after Christmas so I'll move what's left into the conservatory out of the way.

HHC 4 - 4.30 anyone?
