  • I hope everyone gets to hear the news about school places soon and that it is good news..... I remember it well!!

    Ok the results of the nearly HHC:

    I can't actually tick anything off but I did
    • wipe up
    • wash up the baking trays and recycling bits
    • cleared and cleared one work top and put back only what should be there
    • cleared the floor immediately in front of this area ready to be swept this evening
    • WM on
    • Made another cuppa
    So that is me done now until this evening as I must hit the shower now - and I WILL make a packed lunch instead of buying stuff......

    Hi I'm new.. I love working to lists, sometimes I lose the motivation though and as I'm not very big on self discipline things go to pot. I'm hoping my motivation will stay now I'm here.

  • Hi Everyone, and thanks to the Tremendous Triad, as always.

    Started off really well last week, and then suddenly got so tired I could hardly make a cuppa, never mind fly. Don't know whether it's all the studying I've been packing in as well, or whether I had a touch of something (no other symptoms, though). Slept for 13 hours straight through on Saturday-Sunday night. :eek:

    But I'm feeling fresher today :j, and the sun is shining, so let's see how we go.

    Will begin with a dash around the house doing as many jobs as I can until 10:00am; then we'll see about the kitchen at that point.

    3/4H Blitz, anyone? 9:15am - 10:00am

    MissH
