I have filled a binbag with rubbish.. DD1 has been to shop for bunny hay and has gone into town with her friend.. DD2 is chatting to her friends online and DD4 is watching some Disney rubbish..

I am actually struggling to walk much as my pelvis is so darn painful.. I hope it wears off soon I have decorating to do!

I am now off to load WM's, TD and unload DW and fold a mountain of clean stuff.. I'll fill another binbag as well and put out the recycling!.. So I'll join in the HHC a little late..

That's good going for me (84 bookshelves in LR).
so coffee pot is now on, it's about the only thing we won't compromise on in our quest to save money .....it's bl**dy good stuff and quite pricey, but it keeps us going

Everything stops for a brew.......

and I thought I was bad for books :rotfl:Five bookcases in the Snug, three in the playroom. All double stacked, plenty more upstairs . The wood burning stove generates a lot of dust so cleaning the bookshelves is an epic job.

I also agree on the coffee. We have a Dolce Gusto machine and at 20p a cup it isn't cheap but there is no way I would change back to instant.

Slowly working through the toyboxes identifying stuff for re-homing :cool:. Boring but effective.

Must do urgently:
Find third payslip and print tax return info, complete deferment stuff
Online passport forms
Print and complete booking form
Go to post office (when it isn't raining :cool:)

We have a DG machine too. I admit I drink instant in the mornings when quantity is wayyyyy more important than quality, the rate I pour it down my neck in the first hour I'm awake, I don't think I even taste it! I do like a macchiato in the afternoon though, 'bout 2.55 is the perfect time before collecting the children!
