    In my HHC I...

    did all the ironing (thanks for the challenge, toots glad I did it now!)
    s and s'd the kitchen
    loaded the dishwasher
    put wm on a cleaning cycle with cloths in
    wiped down the dishwasher
    went round upstairs opening curtains and windows (not something we get round to on winter working days usually.
    eta and put the recycling in the recycle bin.

  • Doing quite well - 2x wash loads done, washing up done, stuff put away and DS decluttered to McDonalds for his extra shift.

    Working my way round the house trying to put stuff away as I go........homemade soup on the hob (made with homemade stock!)

    Will finally change DS's bed today - have shoved his new duvet covers in the wash and will get them on before tonight.

    Today is a precious day off - got lots of flying to do before I go back to work tomorrow...

    Off for a HHi in front of one of my Xmas DVD's - a little Martin Shaw is called for to soothe me through the ironing...

    2 large girls deposited at school.. OH drove them there.. they tiptoed in to ask if he would .. mug! The other 5 are back tomorrow.. ooh... I need to find bus fare for DS2.

    I got out of bed.. put my cardy on.. went to loo and got back in bed.. it is FREEEEZING~!!!!!!

    I need to speak to my uncle about dealing with the back guttering when it is less icy.. the wall in the girls room is sopping wet so I have to deal with that before it starts affecting their health.. may whizz the dehumidifier on actually see if we can collect some of the moisture.

    Then I may construct a list.. comprising of stuff other than posting 4 ebay parcels which I MUST get done today.

    I'm in! In same position as you BenW except it is now 10 years and 3 babies later - can you imagine the clutter! Anyway, sent a load to Freegle yesterday and tipped a load on Friday - That was just to make a six foot square space for a man to stand in the attic room to look at insulating the sloping ceilings! I'm off to start on the kitchen...wish me luck!

    Morning,

    It is freeeeezzzzing here - it's completely white outside from frost! I've got the heating on but it's not even touching the cold!

    I need to read from p.4 onwards but will catch up when it's warmer

    Going to do an HHC to warm up at 10:25 - join me if you can!
