    DS2 has fallen out with his friend next door, so I'm just going to find him something to eat, and then we're off out. Looks like we missed the best of the sunny weather, but we'll still have a nice time. Playground, farm, a look around the garden centre and maybe the little park, and we may even finish off with a bun and a coffee in the cafe.
    The rest of the bathroom will have to wait. I've finished the sink, window sill, cistern, under sink cabinet (outside) and tiles around sink/loo. Round 3 when we get back.

    Am showered, dressed and have slippers on - prefer them to shoes..lol

    Have cleaned the hob of the oven, and also cleaned the sink. Just realised the window cleaner must have called while I was asleep as I have just found his card on the porch mat..oops!! Still at least we have clean windows at the front..but unfortunately not at the back. Oh well!!

    Oooh have managed to order my veg box for next week too, and it was for the right week also..lol

    Am just sitting here decluttering a cheese and pickle sarnie and contemplating doing the ironing while watching a marathon session of "When the boat comes in".

    Have to depoop the garden too, ugh hate that job..ugh!!

    Have the towels/tea towels going around in the washing machine :D

    HI :wave:

    I don't have any hope of catching up on 8 pages or so, but thank you for your best wishes.

    Still not been able to do any flying, owing to Af, so have decided the best things is to sit fairly still, and let it get on with it..............

    BUT

    Whilst sitting still, I have listed 67 'items of interest' on ebay, for free listing day, luckly I had already taken a load of photos a couple of days or so ago. Just sat here now wonder what else can go............there really will be nothing left to car boot or anything else soon!!!

    All this flinging of 60 items or what ever, has paid off, if they all sell,(some hope) the garage will also be emptier!!!

    Hugs to everyone

    xxxxxx

    Hello all :)
    So far I have washed my youngest son's curtains much to his joy :) Have also washed half of his bedclothes :) Will be slowly getting through the list because I am now babysitting my little nieces due to my sister going to a funeral, aww :( Have been shopping for a bit of food and that's about it - ooh it doesn't sound much at all but every little bit helps without meaning to sound like a Tesco ad,lol!
    Many thanx though because god knows when I would have bothered washing those blinkin curtains!
    I shall update later :)
    Jenny :)
    Everything happens for a reason :)
