Morning All,
Thank you all for your help and tips last week, actually managed a Lazy Sunday yesterday because the house was soooo up-to-date.
I am working 9-5 today so will go for Family Room Day - Level 1 and try to play catch up later on in the week because this is my only full day at work. Good luck everyone else, will post my list this evening when I have completed what I can do.0 -

Well, I've not had chance to keep up with the thread!
Can't believe what a difference a thread can make. My house is lovely and its an absolute pleasure. I've developed new, better habits of picking things up and S&S without any reminders!
As you probably know, I've not been in the best of places and I found this thread at the right time, I dont think you guys realise just how much it means to me to be able to hang around in here!
Thank you, thank you, thank you...
Love to all :A:A:A
