I'm doing my mentor training again this week on Monday and Tuesday, only one more week to go after this and then I will be ready to go. Which will mean I have an extra night to fly in the week as i will be back to college on a Tuesday.
Must make a list of "other items" and also contemplate joining the declutter thread.
I think I have a lot of clutter and usually do car boots with my mum, the unfortunate thing is a lot of clutter was bought by her for us - how can I get rid of stuff without hurting her feelings?
ETA, thanks to Pigpen, Toots & Soappie for your inspiration and hard work for the weekly thread and daily postsIt's nice to be nutty but's more important to be nice0 -
Hi everyone, :wave: count me in again this week please. There is a lot going on in our family at the moment so I didn't do so well last week but feel fired up to really get going this week.0

Can I be in for this week again, please? I've been following the lists, to no great success 'cos I've been wroking outside the house too much, but am free this week and plan on catching up. I may not post regularly, but I'm determined to keep up.
By the way, what happened that you lot gave up on the daily, and came back here? Did we scare you off?:p:rotfl:

ETA oops where are my manners, thank you ladies for the new thread!It's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your windowEvery worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory. - Ghandi0 -
Big thanks to pigpen, Toots and Soappie as I think you all do a fab job keeping this running :beer:
At some points during my first week I did feel like giving up but I am glad I stuck with it as my house is looking really good. Still need a bit more work to get it really shining so I'm in again
Have already managed to do a few things on the list as I made so much of a mess cleaning the oven today!

Hi again everyone,
am also planning going to the tip and ebay this week.
Tommorow starts with 2 bag collections of old clothes and shoes I keep meaning to get rid of Should remember to put them out this time as off to doctors first thing.;)
Do the inside of kitchen window with my e cloth, which works so well with no effort and no smears, should be good with my frozen shoulder:)
Happy flying
