    Afternoon all. Posting first and catching up after so I hope everyone's OK.

    I haven't even looked at the list but I did all the bedrooms today. Also polished in the living room and vacuumed right through downstairs. After a sit down to watch Luther I cut the grass front and back, edged it and swept up, then did some cutting back/tying up/sweeping up. DH came home for lunch and asked if I'd had a nice sit in the garden. The bench was moved round so he assumed I'd been sitting down, didn't notice all the work I'd done. Typical.

    Also, one load of washing done, dried and put away.

    Carol, I thought I had it bad with 3 exams and a driving theory test within 2 weeks! Did some revising today after taking one of the cats to the vets (and paying out £50 :(!)

    Must do more - my "big" exam is a week today!

    Not done much else today, apart from not make mess (which is actually more work than it sounds for me!)!

    Have kept up with the kitchen today though! x

    I am slobbing... and knitting... and oh.. I cleaned the sc today.. from the casserole we had 2 weeks ago.. it kept trying to bite people when they used the toaster!

    I am incredibly frustrated at being unable to do the billions of things I need to do..

    I had in mind to sort hospital bags this week.. then had to wash a bag.. and it is taking forever to dry.. and someone has stolen my huge bag I really need so I may have to purchase another..
