Had to take DD into town for her CAB shift as her bus didn't show :mad: Took the opportunitly to do a big groceries shop
I've spent the last hour sewing up the patchwork squares for the front of her quilt :j We didn't go into York at the weekend to get the border and backing fabric (faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar too hot for cities) so will plan now what I need and buy that during the half term :j
Going to have a coffee and then finish painting my window (then we'll be able to rehang the curtains :j )
Washing is on the line, bread out of the BM, and kitchen is tidy :j
You made a good decision not to come last weekend! Saturday was races - so town was mega-busy!:mad: I cycled in on Sunday along the river- at the same time as loads of people were doing a sponsored walk!:eek:
Seriously though I would never recommend York when there is racing on - for years we used to go on holiday during Ebor week.....:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

Morning all! Well, this is my second day and so far so good. I'm keeping it small and sticking to Level One.
My main problem is getting sidetracked. I would love to be one of those people who can concentrate on one room and get it finished - but it just doesn't happen!!
So, fingers crossed for today!0 -

Don't worry Amanda, it all comes together over time
I was like you at first and the thought of completing a list made me think how do you do this? It'll take ages.
Over time and building up from Level 1 each week it didn't take as long to do and then from Level 3 it doesn't take so long as it was cleaned recently.
Don't get down about it - after all the house took a long time to get like this and it'll take longer than a day to sort! I'm still at it after 18mths!

Hi Amanda, it will come to you over time, in fact i'm still working on it!
It freezing here, OH took his jumper to wear to work. It about 8 / 9 oC out there so coats out again for us.:( Looks like the cold weather is staying the end of May after all grrrr.
OH did the washing up so the kitchens spotless. I've just wiped over the table etc so now its sparkling again.

Don't want to go into the office today... the weather is still nice, and as I CBA to get up at the crack of dawn this morning, I'd quite like to go for a walk at lunchtime...0
