    Most of this morning's snow has now melted and most of the pavements round here are better than they were so I went out for a short walk this afternoon. Could be a problem if it freezes tonight though, as the pavements and roads are quite wet!

    I had post today for the first time in 8 days but no rubbish collection still.

    rach - hope the ankle is improving

    AnW - ouch :eek: gentle hugs x

    mudbath - :eek: what a kind gentleman; hope you are doing ok

    SS - good to hear from you x

    sexymouse - hugs

    Mumof2 - the mum of one of my class phoned early one morning to say he might be a bit tired and grumpy cos she woke up hearing noises from his room and found him covered from head to toe in plum jam and had to bath him at just after midnight!

    Helzbelz_57 - welcome

    juliejim - congrats to DS


    All I want to do is curl up on the sofa and hide from the world :rolleyes: :o

    Soappie. Yes a lot more admissions due to falls and car accidents. Surgical wards full. I had to take an old lady to another ward as the one she was being admitted to did not have a bed for her. Lots coming in to out patients as well with legs or arms in plaster. At one point they were queing out the door of A&E.

    Have done some shredding and filing. Washing put away and cat fed.

    Pen Pen - how lovely to see you talking again :D Enjoy your long weekend!

    Boddy - that's quite horrid really, all those admissions and quite scarey if the wards are beginning to become full. Will you be doing extra hours for the duration?

    Dinner decluttered and another glass of wine just poured so that will be decluttered soon too ;) I then need to do the washing up/DW load (some things I don't put in the DW) but I shall do those in the commercial breaks of the TV programme I have on at the moment :D

    Have finally cleaned all the icky crumbs out of the toaster. I really hate crumbs.
    That's why I don't generally eat bread or toast, and keep the toaster in a cupboard! Unfortunately I have a loaf of bread that needs eating, so I've had to get it out...

    Woodstove glass washed. DW partly emptied but I'm suffering from CBA now I've cooked and eaten. I suppose I should do something about it or I'll get depressed by the state of the kitchen tomorrow. At least the rest of the house is looking reasonably OK!

    Fed birds am

    OK, so spent morning sat in IKEA's cafe getting a major buzz on their free coffee.

    Fed birds lunchtime

    Then bought a new micro SD card for the Xmas present camera and spent afternoon taking photos at local nature reserve.

    Then home for

    Feeding birds (two feathered hoolies broke into the greenhouse and ransacked the bird food store - raisins, seeds and suet everywhere! Suspects are one blue tit and one robin, who have been rummaging around the plant pots since yesterday morning, particularly as they were seen leaving the immediate area seconds before the theft was discovered)

    2 birthday cards, IKEA elk lasagne (£1.50 and well worth it!) and a plate of fruit salad.

    Biggest bonus - Snow Watch on TV!
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Hi all
    Had a reasonable day, DD behaved herself and largely spent the day drawing and making things...I think she must have thought I'd take her into school if she misbehaved...:rotfl:(School was still open...have written a note to give in tomorrow!).

    Have managed to do the following:

    Tuesday ~ Kitchen, Utility and Dining Area
    Level One
    Level Two
    Sweep and mop floors
    Level Three

    Wednesday ~ Study and Bathroom/loo
    Level One
    Declutter and mop/vacuum floors
    Clean the bathroom fixtures and fitting.. while the pc defrags!
    Level Two
    Polish mirrors and taps and pictures and shower screens etc
    Wipe over all the paintwork..
    Declutter the desk and clean the keyboard etc.. icky germs.. and shake out those biscuit crumbs!
    Level Three
    [STRIKE]Declutter 50 emails and have 15 minutes filing/organising spreadsheets/debtbusting!.. see if you can alter any of these payments to free up some cash! [/STRIKE]
    Defluff behind the radiators.. and wipe the fronts so they look nice
    [STRIKE]Clean the downstairs curtain poles/tracks.. furniture polishis a foolproof way of making the curtains run smoothly again![/STRIKE] Have hideous vertical blinds downstairs, left by previous owner, so substituted the mouldy cupboard in the bathroom. Yuk!
    Extras ~ just 3 today as they are time consuming DONE.

    Right, that's me off to the sofa, glass of wine and perhaps some knitting.

    Take care
