    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.

    Morning all!

    With a huge sigh of relief I have decluttered OH back to work and DD2 to school. Will shortly add Ds for an extra work shift (10-4) so I can start flying properly again because the house looks like a before picture from Kim and Aggie - honestly who was it who began decorating at the end of November (NOT ME!!!!!).

    Have decluttered breakfast and a full bin to the binmen - 3 charity bags full to the brim just been collected! Not a bad start to the week - just wish the weather would relent a bit - coldest Jan for 25 years they say. As my OH would comment ' it's a b****r this global warming!

    Six pages!!! No wonder I can't keep up!

    Just dropping to to say I'm in again this week. Hope everyone is doing OK? Very cold here, so cold that the frost looks like snow.

    DD back at school tomorrow, uniform all ready (except her shoes, which I need to polish). Hoping to get some of the decorations down today too.

    Have a good day, see you later
