    Well I didn't steam clean the hall carpet, mr troo's mate has an industrial carpet cleaner with proper got-no-soap-in-it cleaning powder, we're picking it up over the weekend. We're going to clean the whole house :T

    I don't know what I'm doing today, the boss is in the office today and he takes over on the computer - "Can I just do this? And this? Oh and while I'm here I'm might as well do this" I tell him he's paying me to do nothing but drink coffee and smoke and he just laughs and says "Yeah I know, don't worry about it" :D Trouble is, it means I'm wasting valuable home time :rolleyes:

    I'll start sorting books if I've got time, it's going to be a long job though.

    Gosh I'm ahead - I shined my bathroom yesterday :)

    Not much sleep last night, but I used the early morning cheap electricity to do washing (now spun & hung too),
    and bake the cookies/flapjacks/cake I prepared yesterday.
    Kitchen cleaned,
    cats fed/watered/injected (Justin did the litter trays before he went to work)
    Desk tidied (amazingly)

    Things to do today:
    wash/mop floors, vacuum lounge
    swish bathroom (not that it needs it yet)
    Sleep! Will do that first I think

    Hugs to those that need it today, and well done to anyone who's achieved even a little. :grouphug:

    Off now to take littly to playgroup, which gives me some peaceful flying time.

    Morning all.

    Just a little flying for me today.

    Kids done and off to school DS3 has lunch bag for the first time - he told his teacher all about the gingerbread man we made for it.

    Quickly put washing out - rain has passed over in the night.

    Off to Pilates - I love pilates and stop at garden centre to buy compost to sow winter lettuce (in guttering - great tip)

    Later will swish bathroom/toilet and hope to finish ironing before collecting DS3 and his friend to mind.

    Have PTA meeting later so may be pushed for time.

    Hope the sun is shining where you are.

    Jo my cats jump over stable door to garden if they can - imagine where all that water and mud goes!!:rotfl:

  • Washing on as it's another sunny day here. Then I plan a mini blitz of my bedroom. Must do some shopping sometime today, as I'm running short of stuff and I have DGS all day tomorrow, so little chance (or inclination!) then.

    Would like to do a bit in the garden, the rains we've had have sprung a lot of things back to vigorous life!! Do gardens count as flying moggins? Don't want any kicks in the derriere today!!

    Bathroom and kitchen still look lovely, will take only the quickest of swishes to bring them back to full glory!!:D :D

    Good luck today everyone, just flap those wings and GO!!

    Hi all,

    First of all - BIG thanks for all those hugs and kind words. It's life affirming stuff that people who only know me through reading what I type should care. You're all b****y marvellous!!!!

    Anyway, family member's first treatment went well. I spoke to her last night and she seems in good spirits. I need to get back in the air

    Well done to every one so far and particularly Churchmouse - WELL DONE YOU!! Churchlion from now on, I think :)

    Right then, to business. Moggins, remove the size 7 (you're right though PP, does feel like a 9). Getting a cold so may be a short list today

    Lounge floor
    Dinner for all - Chilli if flying, pasta n sauce if can't be bothered
    replace exceedingly dangerous plug socket in DS2s bedroom :eek:
    replace multi extensions with 1 ten way extension in computer room
    hoover stairs
    DW
    WM
    TD
    Clean clothes away
    prepare for tomorrow (iron DS1s shirt, get my clothes ready)

    Company day out tomorrow - no flying, LOTS of drinking :beer:
    :dance:There's a real buzz about the neighbourhood :dance:
  • Tomorrow sounds like a good kind of day!!!

    I must get a wiggle on, I've been drinking coffee with my friend for the last hour. Nothing done yet except a raid of her cellar as she's moving. Now I have more stuff to put away :D
