Hi all!

Thanks to the fab 3 or 4 for the thread and lists..I'm in again this week.. I missed the end of the last thread, its been a busy weekend, lots of cleaning, sorting and tidying been done so its felt very productive.

Work tomorrow sadly, and a 5 days week...roll on the next Bank Holiday!!

Catch you all later

Piggers - do you want to come round here and get my place sorted out too please? I don't seem to have the time... (although I guess I didn't need to make 6 dozen cupcakes this weekend... I could just have done the one batch!)

Just a few catch-ups..

Lav - Lots of hugs, glad the bump is okay, make sure you take it easy!

Mumto5 - Sending lots more coping vibes and hugs to you, and you don't need to apologise, we are here if and when you need us.

Sunnygirl - I might spot you from my window next sunday then (not that I'd know) if the route goes down wilmslow road! Good luck for the run!

Toots - that is soooo annoying about the computer! There is always tomorrow though, sleep well!

Piggers - good carpet-fitting vibes for tomorrow, hope it all goes smoothly, and hope Squeak stays put til you are all ready!

I've decluttered a phone call to a friend who I haven't spoken to in ages, done the top of the fridge and put the washing up away. Going to do the baking cupboard so I can write a list for cupcakes tomorrow, and wipe over everything.

Evening all

I'm kind of in this week - not sure what and how much I'll get done, though, and I definitely won't be able to keep up with the thread. Thanks to everyone involved in keeping it going.

I've spent more than 5 hours in the garden today and I'm absolutely shattered. Moved lots of carp, decluttered weeds and slugs/snails (found out they don't like to go for a swim), dismantled a plastic shed, swept yard/paved bits and did some planting. DH took one lot of stuff to the tip and DS1 moved a lot of things under the trees at the back of the garden, waiting to be sorted/cleaned and put in their proper places. If it's dry tomorrow I'll empty the wooden shed after work, ready for it to be moved on Tuesday. Not looking forward to that, as there will be plenty of spiders lurking inside. Playhouse and shed should be ready and waiting for us when we get in on Tuesday, then I can think about cleaning, painting, putting stuff back in. Must remember to fly in the house, too...:( I would love to invite MIL during half-term, so I've got to get it done.

Hope everyone has a good week - sorry I've not kept up and can't do indicidual replies. x

Oooh cool. I'm in again this week. I enjoyed having the weekend with only having to do general swish swipe daily bits without feeling guilty or that I ought to be cleaning

I did bunk off friday though as the kids are old enough to do their room but OH does it for them, I had a job center session and ended up really depressed (again) about having no work. But i did do dailies and also did some decluttering. Got lots more of that to do as well

My flat is looking better though, thanks guys



Does anyone have any better ideas what to do with really good quality craft/art books other than ebay?

Evening peeps - thanks to Pigpen for the thread and those supporting her.

back from an afternoon/early evening at work. Presentation went ok but would have gone better if the boss hadnt been there to 'see what I do' - er shouldnt she know that anyway, sorry will not turn this post into a rant about her ladyship, who appears to be studying for a degree in how to succeed for the witless and talentless

Came back DS had cooked dinner as per instructions and even gone out and opened the gates for me to drive straight in, well trained that boy .

Have since cleared away, put DW on, swapped washing in WM and TD, handwashed up the stuff that wouldnt fit in DW or needed soaking first and wiped the inside of the oven over while still warm.

Hugs to all those who need them including Lady Lib, Diva, Toots, one for lilme who's not around much at the moment.

Positive travel vibes for ajmoney and anyone else who needs them
