Ds has been deposited at holiday club, and an old friend of mine who I haven't seen for months is working there today so stood for half an hour having a catch-up which was lovely

Okay, its WW tonight and I have had another week of being very very bad. It is however now only 10 weeks until Operation Utterly Fabulous comes to an official close, so thats 10 weeks of sticking to WW and exercising and beautifying starting today

In order to make it more successful everything else around me needs to be organised and sorted, so I have until 6pm tonight when I collect ds to gut the place, every drawer and cupboard will be gutted, cleaned and only stuff that needs to stay will be returned to it. I have plenty of bin liners ready, I have flash, hot water, a car boot box and a recycling box. I will return intermittently during the day to report on progress but this is one of those days where everything else can wait and I need to see how much I can get achieved My reward will be a long soak in a hot bath after ww tonight

Checking in for a quick update ...

• Ds bedroom is done, every cupboard and drawer hsa been emptied, cleaned, refilled / sorted. The bedding has been changed and is currently drying nicely. The posters that came down weeks ago have been stuck back up on the walls, the curtains have had some more hooks added and they are hanging properly again and all in all it looks a nice place to be again
• The hall cupboard has been sorted and the monthly electric meter reading submitted, (£27 last month :T)
• The lounge has been deep-cleaned, the storage unit has been gutted and sorted as have a set of wicker drawers in there. All dvds are back in their proper boxes, the sofa has been pulled out, all cushions removed and thoroughly hoovered
• The kitchen food cupboards have been sorted, the other cupboards aren't bad tbh and can wait for now. The rest of the kitchen has been cleaned including the floor.
• 2 bin bags have been taken out with a 3rd almost full
• I have also spent an hour on the phone arranging our trip tomorrow/friday with a friend, we're going to London tomorrow, staying at the travelodge and then Legoland on friday with the Merlin passes :T

So, left to do;

• Bathroom - this should only take about 15 minutes
• My room A bigger task and one I'm not excited about doing ...

My room is 75% done, but its done enough for me today, I'm knackered now I have done my wardrobe and drawers and half a bin liner of old clothes have gone. I have also just done shred, day one again :j Time now for a quick shower and then I have to go and collect ds in about an hour and then go to WW

I was wondering whether I might have bumped into you tomorrow as we are coming down your way!!! Hey ho, have a good time in London and at Legoland.

benbenandme

Aww, whereabouts are you going Dangers? I will be leaving here at stupid o'clock, friend is picking us up at 7am so we can get there and have a full day in London

Been to WW tonight, put on another pound this week BUT I am determined that I will get back on track, this is a bit of a ww first for me as usually by now I would just have given up, but I really want to carry on and not just pile back on everything I lost

dangers

Going to the Travel inn tomorrow and then three nights along the road at hoburne bashley - only booked it this morning.
