    Morning all

    Freecycle collection due within the next hour, I just need to check email to see if they wanted the jigsaws as well as 2 people who asked have not come back to me when I said they could have them. That is what really p's me off with freecycle, if you want something and ask then the least you can do is respond when offered something or turn up when you agree to collect something.

    Oops that turned into a mini rant! DW about to go on once rest of brekkie pots loaded, WM ready to go on too. Will do some dot2dotting if anyone wants to join in a HHC at 9.30?

  • I love Monday mornings. After the stress and noise of the weekend Monday morning is so peaceful. I've had my shower and got dressed and now I'm just having a relaxing coffee before attacking the kitchen (always resembles a war zone after the weekend!!!!).
  • Hi, in again this week. Thanks to Pigpen, Soapie and Toots. And thanks for all your support last week.
    I'm going to try and be sensible and aim for level 1 this week, anything else will be a bonus.
    Have really got to try and get a grip though as sister and neice are visiting in July and the entire house needs a bloody good clean, so have made a seperate list to help me. The main thing will be to bin bin bin. (there's sooooo much rubbish in this house). Have decided that the declutter will be in 10 min batches, so hopefully manageable:). once my joints feel less sore I want to clean my carpet with my new Bissel http://www.bisselldirect.co.uk/product/1122 absolute bargain!!! Can't do without carpet cleaner with dog, cats and kids.
    Happy birthday to Vanilla and Thrifty
    Mum of 5 - take it easy, the mess will be there next week!
    The problem with common sense is its not very common:rotfl:
