Thursday ~ Bathroom, Study and Stairs!
Friday ~ Childrens Rooms, Spare rooms Or just neglected spaces!
All done please Toots:D:D
I also spent half an hour cleaning dog deposits and destruction from the garden. Pigpen is your DD going to willing clean this stuff up everytime someone wants to play in the garden? Everyone in this house honks theatrically at the prospect of a shift with the spade. Do you have room to dispose of it? Is she willing to poop and scoop when walking?

I'm accidentally watching the rugby - DS2 has it on. He's thrilled as the physio says he can start again after halfterm, no tackling yet, fitness training only for a bit.
I've been to a Snowdrop and Hellebore event this morning - just for an hour, and enjoyed meeting friends and seeing some lovely plants on display, although there was quite a lot of snow in the garden, and I didn't walk round. Didn't buy anything either, as I'm still not in gardening mode.
