Ok - am home from work. Have walked up to school and back with dog to collect Little one and have let dog run around in the field for 20 minutes or so. So thats that done for now.

Have decluttered a slice of WW apple crumble and am opening my box of box files....think i will make a cup of tea and do some filing and shredding with another itty bitty piece of cake

Happy Birthday Holly!!

DH has been really good and helpful today. Visitors have gone and he has stripped spare room bed and washed and dried bedding, cleaned the room including the bathroom. So Friday is finished Toots !!
He says he will do our room tomorrrow and DS2's room on Sunday. :D

I did say we would be 'back to normal' soon.
In my paperwork sorting I found £15 in Argos vouchers and a £10 Lakeland voucher so I am going to have a look to see if there is anything I need/want. Thinking of some more soft pegs.....:j:j

Could you ask on there about the clothes that Pigpen's nephew needs? Sounds like a pretty desperate situation.

Yes i will do! Thats a good idea. :T Ive also asked my friend who has two teenagers....they are a bit older but I know she said they are terrible hoarders when it comes to their clothes and they had stuff that they hadnt worn for years..... so some might fit Piggers, is it nephew?

Anyway, back to my filing....

Afternoon everyone!

Hope everyone is okay today.

I don't do kids rooms, they are 16 & 20 so more than capable of doing their own!

So I've mended the curtain tie-backs & sewn a button back on my coat, both long overdue jobs! Then I pulled out both our bedside cabinets & washed the wall, paintwork & carpet behind them as it doesn't get done very often Feels much fresher in there now!

Have put my name down for a parachute jump:eek::eek::eek: with work for a local charity this morning. What was I thinking!

I'm off to cook tea now & mull over what I've done....

Thank you!!

He is my cousins son.. a very lovely young man despite everything he has had going on in his short life. He's is in 12-13 now but the next size up would be handy.. you know how fast these young men grow!

Thats what I thought.....plus something half decent is better than nothing bless him. I knew it wasnt nephew but something along those lines.

Dont thank me yet - lets see if I can find you some stuff first!!
