In my 2nd HHC I managed:
dusted LR
dusted DR
cleared PC desk
dusted pc stuff, phone mouse etc
tidied windowsill
still need to clear the stairs. I've done it once today, hoovered, then piled up all the stuff that needs to go upstairs on the stairs, so I have to take it up next time I go up (clever, eh?)haven't been up yet.....
right, off for a shower, then into town - banking, post ebay parcel, Mr T for DS1's cooking lesson ingredients, then school run, then dinner, then college (mum babysitting:D)
then bed!
Talk to you all later....I'm not so tired & not so desperate..... mainly thanks to MSEso just call me Notso.....
Yes, I'm juggling and I might drop some.... but at least I'm trying

Hello....been AWOL since early last week, but my foot held out and I completed the Manchester Run!!!!:j We had a really good day and I am now (reasonably) hopeful for the half marathon and I have already started my training plan by doing 3 miles on Tuesday at 6.30am. I want to do 4 miles tonight but it depends what time I manage to get the girls to bed and if DH is well enough to let the Asda delivery in. He's got man flu so is in bed. If not I'll have to go in the morning to keep on track.
The house is a bit of a tip and as I've got a bit of time before the school run so I'd best get cracking.
The first thing I need to do is wrap up a couple of birthday presents so I'll do that first then fly. Best post a list.
