    I'm showered, covered in anti-cellulite oil and have a hair mask on :D. I've polished my teeth, and the spare room and bathroom mirrors. Off to make my hot waterbottles and hopefully get a few more bits done at the same time...

    Evening all. We have another snow day tomorrow :D:j

    Didn't do lists after all - took DD for a walk round to school (took photos of how bad the roads were around it as they're so icy and I couldn't believe it!) & then to the nearby park :D Came home via Co-op & chippy then sat and watched diet programmes with DD :rotfl: She's keen to help me start loosing weight, which will start seriously the Monday after my birthday (as will the no alcohol :D ) - will mean I can use up the not so good for me stuff thats in over the next 2 weeks rather than throw it away ;):money:

    Also went through DD's wardrobe with her and pulled out all the questionable clothing (she's had another growth spurt :rolleyes::mad: ) so she's going to go through it all tomorrow properly trying things on :D

    I've managed to wash up some dishes (mainly mugs) and sort washing (2 loads done) DD's bed is remade and mine will be remade before I get in it :o:rotfl:

    Don't worry about it - I had the urge to get up at 1am (when I couldn't sleep) and clean through downstairs and then go outside and clear all the snow & ice from the road & pavements & cars :eek::rotfl::rotfl: Thankfully I managed to drop off around 1.30am without moving except to do about 50 sit ups trying to wear myself out :rolleyes:

    Ok, I'm shattered. I need to take it a bit easier tomorrow. Please let it be bathroom, we only have the ensuite in operation, the family bathroom doesn't actually exist anymore. Hopefully I'll have one by the end of the month but I shouldn't get my hopes up, these things take forever in our house :rolleyes:
    It took him 10 months to do the bedroom and ensuite!

    :dance: Can I have two stars pretty please! :dance:
