I had good intentions this week but it went from bad to worse! I normally work 4 days a week, but for the next 3 weeks I am working full time so the planned house working day has gone kaput! Also my back has been particularly stiff this week (hopefully only due to the cold snowey weather) as a result I feel as if I have failed miserably. However I have just changed the bed and will do the spare room bed shortly (as the lodger is returning this weekend (snow permitting). How much more gets done I don't know - but there is always next week so please make sure I am down on the list and my intention is to slowly work up to achieving all the targets!
Keep up the good work and thank you for the achievable targets you set for each day!:T0 -
Angie loves veg - massive hugs to and healing vibes for your puddy cat xxx
LL - DS says thank you for the birthday wishes. He's having a fab time. His best presents are the four packets of jaffa cakes (in the sale as they are in a box with a Christmas theme) and a lego game for the PC. He's VERY happy. His bike is in the living room but I don't think it will be going anywhere soon!
We're all off to the piccies now and then a local tapas bar as he loves calamari and other equally strange food!
Flying - birthday wrapping paper put in recycling
- kitchen s/s
- washing load on
- beef taken from freezer to defrost
- bathroom s/s
Bit more s/s later I think.
Hugs to you all xx0 -
Have got to try and start the car today - it's been standing for almost a week...looks like I might be going to buy a battery charger later!
I only use my car every couple of months and it has always started so far!!
I like those ideas (but my CDs are already in alphabetical order)
So are mine, and by Genre....and so are the dvds, books, ps3 games, wii games...need I go on (I was alphabetical with my cds before getting married but DH has taken it to a whole new level....)
I'm still in bedbut must get up so we can go out for a late breakfast/early lunch. Also then need to get prezzie for friends son, wrap it and drop it over there (bus ride away) and may have a look around the shops at the same time
Other things I need to do today, as well as flying are:
return non working gravy separator thing
collect reserved library book
mealplan and small food shop
sign up to the weightwatchers online dealMum to gorgeous baby boy born Sept 2010:j0 -
Morning
Had a rude awakening this morning when DS alarm clock went off at 730 (he's at his dads) - its one of those where the top flies off and you have to find it and put it back before it stops . DD and I couldnt find it for ages:rolleyes: so had a cuppa and went back to bed until 1030 :rotfl:.
Have since managed breakfast (not more porridge) and another cuppa
Have relocated clothes from bedroom so I can get dressed without disturbing DH who has gone to bed after night shift.
Plan today
Bath
Clear kitchen of 24hrs worth of washing up
Empty DW
Make large bag to hold Christmas Wrapping paper
Make DD PE bag
and if any time left retrieve my list from P73 and do something else :rotfl:
Hugs to Ange/hubby/and poorly puss
