Back from my first HHC for a bit
Decluttered and wiped work surfaces
unload DW, put dirty bits in
1x WM, 1x TD
cooked DD breakfast, wiped hob and grill when finished
S&S'd sink
I've not been around for a few months, I did some serious life decluttering and then have had the aftermath to tidy. I found out (after much suspicion) that DH was having an affair. He was funding two families, the other much more richly than his own. So I binned him. He has been a total spineless coward since, hasn't seen the kids, been prepared to deal with anything other than playing happy families with them. I have had the fallout of it all to deal with, including two very angry teenagers.
So, now I'm back and getting it sorted out again. I need the support of you lot to sort this part of my life out.
End of sermon, I'll join TAG's HHC a bit late again!

Also took a call from the lovely lady at next arranging delivery of our new TV:j We spent very little on each other at christmas, just got a token gift each and put the money to a new TV, got this one. It uses way less energy than our current plasma.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -
My HHC lasted for an hour.......during which I:
WM & TD x1
rummaged through the "hot spot basket" next to the sofa and threw out odds and ends that should never have been there in the first place
Sorted and cleared three sections of the filing cabinet - mostly rubbish/recycling/shredding
shifted remaining Christmas packaging to the utility room on its way to the green bin....
Now having coffee - will be ready to go again at 10.30 when I will tackle the "list proper" rather than get sidetracked with filing cabinets and the like!!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

- HHI - should be done by DH tonight
- S&S the kitchen
- make a start on those tax forms –they’re DH’s and I really don’t feel like doing anything for him at the moment, so they’ll wait
DW, WM, TD, make turkey soup for tea and freeze spare meat, finish making veg soup, organize ironing for DH tonight, go to local shopping centre
Also must make a start on other priorities for these holidays (101 in 1001 list and financial planning). Breakfast, then I'll get going.0
