DD2 came home at lunchtime - a half day for staff training...but she's got a tickly cough so we sat and watched a Dr Who and then a CSI!
DD1 stressing about her mobile being slow/not working - is anyone having trouble with the 3 network today?:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
OK so I have sorted a bookcase and have several books ready to donate, also have sorted one stack of paperwork. Loads more to do, but it's a start!

3 drawers emptied
1 binbag filled to bursting
Found...cards (sentimental value), DD2's dvd's and cd's, DD1's exam results, a very important court document I thought I'd lost, pension info.
Thank you so much for thinking this list up Dusty, you've really got me motivated.
Myself and hubby are going to make an appointment this week to write our wills and he is inspired to check his pension provision and what that entails.
