Off to get a car radio today as I've been driving around without one for a while since it was stolen the other week. I really miss my Radio 4 when I'm driving so we're heading to Aldi as they have them in at the mo.

MissHiggerty

Hi everyone!

Back again after (hem!) a small interlude.

Thanks for all the 'good luck' vibes for DD: audition seemed to go well, so now we just wait and see.

This morning I must clean the bathroom, which is a horrid mess!

Pigger's list has loads to do with the study this week, so I'm just going to follow a list of my own:

Chuck out dead bottles; inspect the towels
Put loo cleaner down loo
Tidy the cleaning basket
Shine the bath & surrounds
Put drain cleaner down the plughole
Windolene the shower screen
Wipe the tiles
Wipe the skirting board, door frame and door
Windolene the mirror
Wipe the bathroom shelf and contents
Wipe the sink
Wipe the towel rail
Wipe the corner stand
Finish cleaning the loo
Hoover the floor
Mop the floor

Golly! Looks horrible put like that!

Anyone up for a HHC starting at 11:00am? I'm starting a little early now...

MissH
xxxxx

p.s. MsGnomey: hope all goes well with you.

Im getting a few things done off my own mammoth list too which is good, once its a more manageable size I may consider posting on here!

xx

Valli

Good morning all

I have de-pooped the garden. The kitten has discovered the pleasures of al-fresco dumping - but on the lawn. So I have been out there with a plastic bag, wellies and a trowel;)

Three lots of washing out - it's cloudy, but high cloud and the ground is drying so it will, at least, be lightened. DD despatched to her dad's; DS lurking so Valli's cunning nooky plan might be foiled:rotfl: windows open and dot-to-dotting (although they are tiny dots) ongoing
Cinema tonight:T

Another dreich day here, but I now have a watertight dormer:T

Had to be across town for 9am this morning - did a shop on way home - so just had a coffee and a roll - now need a plan for rest of day.

Controlling my spending so I have money to do the things that are really important to me is positive and empowering ( not a dull miserable way to live) If I say it often enough can I convince myself? :rotfl:
