    located guests presents left behind - will post tomorrow
    cleaned sofas
    WM x 4 so far
    TD x 2 so far
    rehomed edible pressies
    put drinks back in cupboard

    & DS has decided to flylady his playhouse in the garden (bless him he asked if I minded? - ermm ....no!) :D

    Moam
    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Afternoon all

    Today's list done :) (I did lots of stuff last week but not everything on the list applied to me, no small children, so I didn't try to sort out if I earned stars or not!).

    I've got the beef joint roasted today and I've just started roast potatoes etc. Hope it's OK.

    Going to finish catching up now.
