    Happy Birthday to 83Rachel's daughter!!!

    Just popped on quickly before taking DS into nursery - DD safely dispatched to school. DH still sound asleep; will just leave him be as he needs a good sleep. Got the living room to do today from my 'Ali list' and also got opticians at 12, seeing minister from our church at 2 and actually GOING OUT (sorry to shout!) this evening :T!

    Sandy, hope you're OK love.

    Onestep, you do all 3 levels to get a star, but I'd just take it easy and not aim for stars just yet as you're new. I bust a gut to get all my stars to start with but am now much more relaxed about the whole star thing :cool:! Well done you for getting level 1 done; feels good doesn't it.

    Must go but be back later x

    I only went and recleaned out the oven this morning before I left for work!

    I cleaned it on Sunday but managed to leave some of the cleaning fluid inthe door window section. This morning I unscrewed it and washed it with stardrops and wiped the remainder from the oven base and all done ready to be put back together when I get in!

    Feeling pleased about this because if I had left it until after work I would have left it again

    Aiming to complete a room tonight after exercise, dog walk and tea!
