Two kids beds stripped and washing on the line

Been and got perspex for the coldframe and the playhouse to be repaired
Got cork pinboard to block the fireplace in DS2 room - that was the last thing to get for there - just the mattress to arrive still.

Paid a bill on line.

Need to drop DH and boys at the station in a bit so I'll do a couple of jobs in town whilst I'm there and then when I get back:

A bit of gardening
A bit of pilates
Clean one window and frame
Find some phone numbers to book some appointments next week
Look online for a blind for shower room.

Wet stuff on line..
Bunnies outside to play.. Polly is not amused!!

My bedding is next in.. then I am going to sort girly clothes.. while OH is persuaded to build another pink chest of drawers!

I want to mooch down to the wool shop as well.. mat hve to go on my own as OH gets most frustrated walking at my slower than slow pace.. even the 2 tiddlies were moaning about us living 100 miles from home it was taking so long to gt back from school lol

Getting there slowly... things certainly look better, although as always, the utility room and study end up bearing the brunt of the tidying. Fingers crossed that having the new shed will finally resolve this, and lots of the utility room stuff will be able to go outside, and I'll be able to make better use of the utility room.

Guess I should head off to buy veggies now, so I'm back by the time my parents arrive. I wonder whether I have the energy to make them a cake for tea...

ETA - embb - do you have someone who keeps putting junk in your shed 'just in case' because it might be 'useful' one day? I live on my own, and yet my dad, brother, builders etc seem incapable of throwing things out... I have to make sure I check after they've been helping out and get rid of stuff that is clearly rubbish...
