    I tell ya Mudbath it will be the next big thing, everyone will want it. :rotfl:

    Bedding now in TD, few more things sorted out in the kitchen. Think i'll empty the bin full off clean clothes again and get it put away.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

Thats all I am doing of the big jobs, am going to sit down for 1/2 hour and then finish the dinner stuff and potter around til 4.30 when DS comes in from school and we go off to tennis.

      Update -

      Wipe inside of oven and grill. (Done everyday then I don’t have to clean it IYSWIM)

      Just having a 10 min sit down to feed the baby.

      Then I'm going to hang the washing (bedding) out and walk over to the charity shop to take the bag I just filled. Feeling really [STRIKE]smug [/STRIKE]pleased with myself for doing so much so far this week. This is very unlinke me!

      Feeling a bit ashamed of the amount of crud I just hoovered up though, emptied the cylinder yesterday and there's a lot in there already.

      Right, off we go!

      P.S. thanks so much for the motivation on this thread, it is very much appreciated and very much needed :)

      Good to see you Lady-L.
      Sadly I think many of us assume there will always be tomorrow to do all the things we want to do and that we will always be able to do them.
