Decided it's best not to think about it and just get going and get the jobs done. The bathroom looks so much better - will pop the mats and shower curtain in with the washing tonight (we're on Economy 7 so only wash clothes in the early hours of the morning to save money)
How to celebrate ....... hmmm, let's walk the dog in the rain, that's always fun! Be back later once I've got DS from pre-school.Flymarkeeteer: £168 and counting0 -
Morning all! Am feeling a bit better today, so am going to try to do a few bits.
Sorry I've not caught up on the thread, hope all are well, and am thinking of Miss A, W and their Mum today xx

Disaster!!! :eek::eek::eek:
Got into boys’ toys box… and noticed that a shoe box where they keep their lego is torn.
Decided to pull it out and tape it, but it broke in my hands……. Lego scattered all over the place….
There goes my HHC 10.15 …..
More haste but less speed
I have stripped the beds
chased the recycling men to give them what they dropped
brought the box in
took neighbours box round theirs
Last time ours was collected was 11 December :eek:
missed 25th dec
missed 8th Jan - no show due to weather!
I also do recycling at school, same week but the Tuesday - so we had STACKS there, too (all paper) - and usually they collect in the morning - they didn't get to school this week unitl 3:30 due to the VAST quantities/missed collections
Checked the school website to read this week's newsletter so I am 'in the loop'.
Packed a parcel ready to post later
admired whoopsied lamb in SC and pondered whether to serve it today or chill and skim it first - could then use it Sunday after football - decisions decisions
Now I WILL go and CLEAN my bedroom
ETA just put spud in oven for lunch - now joining Rosepink;) cleabning my bedroom...
