Just decluttered some mini marshmallows that were hard in a hot chococlate and rum so that was a good declutter of the storecupboard! Was cold after the dog walk and had it to warm me up!

Nikki - good look with your weight loss, I could do with losing a stone and should make more of an effort with the exercise than I do. Should try harder and it will keep me busy too and mind occupied. Therefore, [STRIKE]might [/STRIKE]will do some tomorrow!

...and I have hemmed another curtain, which means I could press and hang another pair! Only one left to hem now - I'll try to do that tomorrow!

pigpen - happy that it arrived, hopefully in one piece! I thought it was something you could make good use of:cool::D

Huge hugs for those of you having a challenging time right now.

As I hadn't looked at the sales I decided to have a look at the Lakeland on-line sale
The site is down 'for improvement' :mad::mad::mad::mad:

I keep looking and thinking 'oh shall I have this, that and the other?'

Leave them in my basket and then leave the site behind to have a think about it! It is one of my favourite shops but I don't [STRIKE]really [/STRIKE]need anything else!

Won't go back and look again now!

This is the most motivated I've been for ages, so thank you everyone :j:T:j:T

By the way, after I ranted DH got his bum in gear and has done DIY, walked the dog (in the rain), and is now making tea so he's back in the good books .... for now!

Maybe we should have a flylady fitness challenge again this year... Pigpen might even bung in the odd HHE for us . I must have lost about 3 stone last year... unfortuately I just lost the same half stone about 6 times :rolleyes::o so this year I need to keep it off. My ankle is still a bit feeble, but I had a decent walk on Sunday and it survived, so I should be able to manage.

First thing to do is get all the problem food out of the house and NOT by eating it... feed it to other people . And then grab a pedometer in the sales (saw them in the supermarket today)... in fact, grab two in case one breaks/gets left behind. Measure every day for a week without changing from your normal routine, and then set yourself targets to increase your step count and add in other exercise.

Drink water or tea/herbal tea. Eat lots of fruit and veg and DO NOT BUY diet books & supplements. Hex is our resident weight loss guru, so maybe she should be in charge

Been reading the info in the first posts. amused to see Hot Spots - I've always called them Naughty Corners *g*.

Just had a verty late lunch and will tackle hall as it's in a terrible mess. Stairs are too - I always try to say never go upstairs with your hands empty but it seems to breed!

Been to a soft play centre with my 2 girls, niece & 2 nephews (&SIL). So the girls are having a 'quiet time' watching beauty and the beast on my bed.

Will do a list. Monday's list is finished thanks to DH sweeping and mopping the kitchen floor. I asked him to do it while I was at work and he said he would so when I got in at 11.30pm and it wasn't done I ran the hot water for the mopping and got the brush and mop out, then asked him if he'd get chance to do it before he went to bed or should I do it now? He said he'd do it so I told him the water was ran and hot now ready for him to do it. Of course he was delighted!:rolleyes:;) But it got done.:j

Monday ~ Kitchen and Dining Area
DONE:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Level Two
Vacuum under furniture you can safely move!
Vacuum hallway and right up the stairs
Sort out coats and bags etc.. wash any that need doing before we go back to school/work
Wipe sticky marks from sofas and paintwork
Extras

1. HHI
2. make a start on those tax forms!!

Planning on doing a HHI tonight to clear it for the New Year Ironing Challenge. Think I'll get some washing done too. I already tidied and decluttered and vacuumed the lounge on Sunday and I've managed to keep it tidy, although it could do with another vac round and I'll vac the sofa & chairs too. Think I'll make a start as tea is a quick heat up in the microwave job....chilli and rice from the freezer left over from last week. That'll do for the girls and I'm not hungry yet so I'll sort me & DH out later.

Not managed to catch up on the thread, you lot haven't stopped gassing all day!!!!:p;) So hugs all round and I'll see you later when I've finally done a bit.
