Well as I'm still up and was wide awake I had a HHI and then a HH invoice issue - pdfs & email make it so easy now I have all the templates set up.
Not a huge declutter but one that has been nagging at me - accounts for sure tomorrow,
Off to my pity shortly, goodnight all
MoamAlthough no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

I've managed to finish last week's lists, so I will be able to use my desk tomorrow! I've also printed off the fitness tests I need to do, found the other bit of my heart rate monitor and located and completed my passport renewal form. I just need to decide whether I need a new photo (sticking with a 10 year old one is quite tempting...!)
I've located cards for, and addressed envelopes for the letters that need to be written tomorrow, so all the preparation is done, just no actual work!
I'm off to bed, but will be back in the morning, doing bits of flying between bits of work.0 -

Well I eventually achieved something today.
Upstairs is looking lubly still. Downstairs is better than it was this morning but needs improvement.

Mudders, I am going to do the same.
I think it just keeps the thread posts to a managable, readable thread:D
This thread is so motivational, I would hate it to change too much or not be hera at all :eek:
Pigpen, Soappie and Toots....
You all do an outstanding job...
Many thanks for all of your hard work :T
I really need to do a bit of focusing on my own list, as I all I seem to be doing, is recycling the same one..... and nothing is getting crossed off, other than going to the gym:rolleyes:
I am off to bed now, I had the sorest of heads earlier, and it hasn't gone completely. I think sleep should sort it out.
Oh ..... I almost forgot
I bought a reconditioned carpet cleaner today, so it should be here later in the week.... so I have added that into an extra for me, so I can have a bit of a play with it.
I think I need to get out more... a person shouldn't be this excited about a carpet cleaner :rotfl::rotfl:
