Hi all.
Did I miss something? I couldn't see a list for today?
Anyway, on looking at today's posts, I saw that Dustykitten had put up an old list as a suggestion, so I've gone with that, as the bathroom was in need of a Fly.:o
[FONT="]Thursday - bathroom, study and other grotty places![/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Level One[/FONT][FONT="]
Clean the loo and the bath and the shower and the basins! Done
Defragment PC and run spyware scans while scrubbing the tiles and grout! Done; grout is OK as I steam-cleaned it very recently, so used the time to do birdfeeders (see LW’s jobs below)
Level Two
Clean out the bathroom cabinets.. throw out/charity shop all last years unused/unwanted smellies. Cabinet is tidy; no unwanted smellies to begin with, and I've checked that we have a "spare" of all the regular-use items.
Clean windows, curtains & blinds etc Window done; no curtain or blind in bathroom.
Declutter and vacuum/mop floors Decluttered; vacuuming is Mr LW’s job (done last Sunday).

If you'll accept my promise that I'll do the furry mats tomorrow on cheap leccy, then THURSDAY IS ALL DONE!!:j

Hi all. Would like to say all done, but have just noticed little lump in right armpit that nurse dismissed as 'nothing at all' three months ago has turned into something rather larger, hurts almost like I'm due on (which I'm not because only just finished 3 days ago) and has made the boob a lot rounder than the other side.
Stuff the $£$%£$ housework.
So waiting for GP surgery to open phone line.
Meh.
Not what I really wanted to find - could have found a fiver down the back of the sofa, could have found the meaning of life, could have found the cute one of the Hairy Bikers in me bedroom, could even have settled for finding another furball under the bed.
But no, I have to find THAT.
Bleurgh. On hold now.
*******

Oh well. There had to be an upside.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -

Big hugs to you Jo, hope it is not anything serious. I have had a scare before and it was a blocked milk duct but got me really worried. Could it be your bra wire which has caused a lump to rub?Cross Stitch Challenge Member ?Number 2013 challenge = to complete rest of millenium sampler.0

MACAW... EAT BETTER, no snacks, no junk0 -
I've had underwire related stuff before but this doesn't seem to be in the right place or the right type of discomfort, more deeper in the armpit somehow.
Even the Bloke says it looks wrong and feels wrong.
I'm 37 next week (ssshhhh! It's a secret!) but no family history of nasties.
Prob nothing, but best to get off to the GP's for a poke around tomorrow, I think.I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -

Right I have bin issues!!!
Our bins haven't been emptied for over 2 weeks now and I can't see them coming round until Tuesday.... I've tried everything I can to squeeze more in but it's not happening. I'm going to have to leave rubbish bags outside.... I know it's not the end of the world but I was wondering if there was anything anyone could suggest to try and make it as hygienic as possible? I have double bagged them all.
Is anyone else in the same position?
