In my HHC I managed to dust & deweb the whole LR.
That's good going for me (84 bookshelves in LR). That's another bit off today's list.... I'll update it in a bit. Just going to shove a bit of food at boys and carry on with DR (almost as many shelves in there...)

If you find it can you send me some as I think mine has now wandered off..lol. I have decluttered my lunch and emptied the veg boxes in the porch, put the plants on the patio awaiting potting at the weekend. I also did a bin bag dance, but now I have stopped after lunch and I can't get going, and I haven't even started on the list properly..lol Ooops just noticed DDog needs his next dosage of honey, better get off and do that and then get the second lot of dry washing in

Started attacking THE DAETH TRAP as DD2 now calls it...it's a lot better than what I call when she's out of earshot
Quite entertaining finding DD1's interesting [ahem] creative writing about her and her BF's activities left on the floor by her bed (2 foot away from DD2's bed). Decided not to bother checking any of her possessions after that, they're all in the bin now, along with a number of manky shoes, trainers and boots, five year old makeup and anything else within reach. Donated all spare paper and pens,pencils, etc to DD2 at the same time - there was stuff there that she had been given 4 years ago, still unopened, when she had repeatedly moaned that she didn't have anything that could be used for coursework/DD2's homework (stating that she desperately needed cash to get such things).
Did some bits n pieces whilst DD2 was chucking things, should really get back to it now.
Plants currently recuperating in the bath, I may have lost one, but they're looking surprisingly alert actually!I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll0 -
Have tidied floors, they are nearly hooverable now! Got to do a bit more in the bathroom as there seems to have been an avalanche of bags and gibble in there. Also got a bit more shopping to put away from yesterday. DH is so funny after he's been shopping, he comes in and dumps it all on the floor or bed and then ignores it. If I've not been with him and don't know what he's got I usually find that he's put all the chilled stuff on the bed in front of the heater and that things are gently defrosting or cooking! I managed to get everything into the fridge last night before bed and will tackle the storecupboard stuff later.
I'm working on an incredibly complicated customer order at the moment, it's taken me a few weeks to get to this stage, and I've worked out where i went wrong now so am starting again. It should be quite quick now I think, hopefully! It's for a friend of a friend so they are very patient. I'm not a good seamstress and they want a silk Bible cover, so it's rather painstaking! Good practice though I guess."Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

I am decluttering crisps as I thought I had gone deaf... I have 3 children in the house and the only noise (other than me crunching in my hollow head is the cat snoring!!
How do you all cope with so few children? lol
No, no, that's wrong, how do you cope with so many:eek:
