- Sort through the box of miscellaneous belongings N/A – there isn't one!;)
- Binbag dance N/A – done Monday night, and nothing has appeared since.
Off to the GP in a little while; Mr LW is coming with me, as I get so very nervous and forget everything I wanted to say, and I need to remember to tell her how awful the last hospital visit was. Thanks everyone who has wished me well for this.:)If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Hello - let's try typing this again! Just tried to post and lost it.
I'm afraid I've not caught up with the thread properly - DH is home and has been on the laptop all morning. He's struggling with this cold he's got, but hopefully will manage to do some work on his tax return.
I'm very tired today and haven't managed to go out as planned. Never mind. I've been out to the shop to get milk and bread for breakfast and have strengthened a box with masking tape as I'm planning to sort out a major hotspot. We've been dumping stuff there since we moved here so it's about time it was sorted!
In our bathroom we have a wall with cupboards high up, and below that a large shelf - sort of baby changing mat size. Under that are three small drawers (where i keep my undies) and a big gap next to the drawers which is where the hoover should live. The gap and shelf are piled high with stuff and the plan is to rehome things or chuck 'em! It will be done very slowly but I'm feeling very enthusiastic!

Rosepink... onion man with mascara on would have been funny :rotfl:
Sabs thanks for the tips on the charity shop ragman. I’ve decided to shred up all the old pjs and use them to stuff cushions and things! I will ask about a ragman next time I’m in the charity shop though
Twoflower I hope you get some sleep soon xx
Carol I hope your exam goes well

Goodness, this thread is having more of an impact that I ever imagined. I finished with my client and then PUT HIS FILE AWAY IN THE FILING CABINET instead of
a) leaving it on the coffee table;
b) sticking it in a pile on or next to my desk
And all the while I was thinking 'what will the flyladies think if they saw me leave it here, instead of putting it away?'
Meanwhile:

I really need to go find new bras but I just know if I do I'll end up spending a small fortune.. but mine are so uncomfy.. and I only have 2 now!!Off to the GP in a little while; Mr LW is coming with me, as I get so very nervous and forget everything I wanted to say, and I need to remember to tell her how awful the last hospital visit was. Thanks everyone who has wished me well for this.:)
One load of laundry in, one load of shopping done and I'm now on the first of my four 90 minute teleconferences for today. I found my bluetooth headset, so can do one of them either going for a walk or on the treadmill later. I'm going to spend the rest of this one clearing up my desk and doing the odds & ends of ironing now I've caught up on a few bits and pieces.0
