Cleared the cabinet in the hall.
Took the dog for a walk at last.

DD2 decluttered to school until Friday! FLING.. before she went I made her pile all her dirty laundry and her bedding outside her room to be washed.. just evil I am!
bunny run shifted so they can deal with the dandelions in the garden.
Purchased remaining baby bedding bits with DS2's DLA.. it works out ok as the maternity payment is going on school uniform/shoes for them all.
Just going to have a cuppa and then have a look at the gibble on the landing see what can be shifted elsewhere so the boxes can go on the landing.. this may take some time!
Hallway decluttered of 2 dead shredded birds.. the hallway I cleared and vacuumed yesterday of course.. grrrr...

HI peeps
Ive been out to the next town with DS and DD to look for curtains for living room. Couldnt find anything I like and the material I did like was £120 :eek: so came home and dropped DS and his girl-friend into town, had a mooch round and found some 1/2 price for £35 :T. Juts got to decide if they are ok or not now I have them home as in the packet they match the red 100% but out of it they are a bit brighter and cant decide if they'll work or not. DH thinks they're ok but men have no sense of colour.
Anyway
Natty - hugs for your friend and well done to you :A
boddy and Anw'smum - hope you both feel better soon
whoever's birthdays it is then
and enjoy your day
carlsberg - I hope you get news soon
mummyof5 - Hope its really +ve news for your brother
toots - dont overdo it
