    Morning All

    Count me in please.

    Am scheduled for a bunionectomy - got pre-op assessment next Tuesday and procedure will be anytime during the next 3 months so need to get house sorted out.

    Am pleased to say got rid of a nice big bagful of never-worn clothes to a charity last week which led to a nice empty shelf, which led to picking handbags and suchlike up off the floor to store on the empty shelf which led to clearing the Ottoman-drobe which led to a nice spring carpet cleaning session - yaaay.

    Might join in the Anniversary thingy thread too.

    Hello, I am ging to try to get more done this week. My cold is much better and I am beginning to get more strength back.

    It is a beautiful bright sunny day so I am hoping to get some washing hung outside (with help).
    I have tried cleaning mould off DS1's bedroom window ledge this morning and have hung up all his shirts and ties.

    The broth is in the pressure cooker and DH, DB and DS2 are all busy putting plaster board up next door.

    I need to get a loaf of bread going in the breadmaker and get a bit more done in the kitchen.

    sandy I hope you are okay today. Don't go overdoing it:)

    rose I decided to make a new start this month too. Good luck with everything.

    toots Same to you as sandy, don't go overdoing things and making yourself overtired. I know it is like the pot calling the kettle black but I do mean it. ((Hugs))

    Dusty I am going to try to do half an hour of your challenge too. If I can find it!!

    Turns out DS hasn't got a full blown ear infection, but there could be something lurking. Got a prescription for antibiotics if needed, but GP thinks it could well just disappear on its own. I'd rather not use them if we don't have to and he's right as rain again now.

    Never did do the vacuuming, so going to do lunch for us and then vacuum, do some typing, sort kitchen then it'll probably be time to get DD. Where does the time go?
