    hi everyone

    well, MIL and DH gone.. bless her, she stripped the bed for me - mind you that's the only thing she did all w/e ;) Anyway.. DD is off school for another week, but luckily can be bribed with chocolate to help with the lists, so I'm in this week too :D

    Thanks to the committee :p as always

    Excellent! I'm in again please, and thanks to all for the list and stars! its making a huge difference already after just one week really....:T And I love just reading the thread too

    Washing and ironing all done this afternoon and evening, even washed the loose sofa covers and got them dried outside.

    I'm feeling very relieved after seeing a couple of earler posts - :o - I've got a cleaning person starting tomorrow to help out whilst I get over the hump with the new house - I've got so much sorting out to do still, the garden to get on top of, the house still needs a lot of tlc to get it into shape and I'll be running out of holidays to take at the rate I'm going. My colleague of 6 years shook my hand and introduced himself to me the other day as I hadn't seen him in weeks :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I was wondering whether to "fess up" or not, but since tootifruities says its ok as others get family to help sometimes and I dont have family to help, then :T. Not that I'm trying to justify it at all....!!!
