    [/STRIKE]

    This is the first time in about 13 years that I have been able to see the top of my tumble dryer. It was covered in boxes that we havent touched since we moved here. One box is awaiting DH to come home as the stuff in itis his. I dont think there is anything he needs to keep, but he may have other ideas (sigh).

    Anyway the tumble dryer is now clear, stuff is thrown out, or put away and the dryer itself has been cleaned.

    So MONDAY ALL DONE. PLEASE MAY I HAVE A STAR?

    Pigpen and Chazsucks what terrible stories, glad the babies were alright in the end. How awful to think your baby is dead.

    I've done pretty well today - have got ham out of outside freezer and loo rolls from outside cupboard, made the bed, tidied up, done some printing, taken photos, done work things on computer, got clothes ready for the weekend, put away dry washing up, washed up, done more work things and am now completely worn out and going for a lie down

    Oh where to start????????? The LR I think followed by the stairs and bedroom.

  • Hello lovelies- thanks for the welcomes back! You’ve given me some motivation because before I left for work this morning I’d:

    Loaded WM
    S/S kitchen
    Aired and made bed
    Loaded TD
    Turned on DW
    Plumped up cushions, we have 2 sofas but one of the has 6 enormous cushions as the back and they don’t look nice once you’ve sat on it!
    Dysoned the whole of the downstairs
    Cleaned the blasted glass table
    Bleached both loos

    G&B – say about LO – hope she improves soon, no wonder you are having migraines it’s the stress my love
    Piggers/chaz – horrendous stories, how incompetent can some people be? Amazes/horrifies me
    Gotno – hope you are ok after having your teeth out!
    Love/hugs/coping vibes to everyone else that needs/wants/just likes them! Have read all the posts but am at work and doing the blasted newspaper advert and it’s driving me crazy and making me even forget my own name!!!

    Now all my drawers and my wardrobe are neat and tidy for when I am back and have lots of clean washing. I haven't really even started packing, thought I would get the stuff out that I wanted to take first. Problem is there isn't much there, I am feeling really conscious of my body at the moment so I am going to have to try lots of stuff on to see what looks ok.
