One load of washing reluctantly put in the TD (it just wasn't drying on the line) and put away, another load in the TD drying now. Have been putting the clean washing away that Moon had piled up instead of putting away, and found that half of it is really creased - have had to put one pair of trousers in the TD with the washing that is drying in the hope that the creases will come out.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170

Thanks, greenbee. That gives me a better idea. I have to weigh up if I have time to do the planning at such a detailed level, or if it would be a displacement activity. Also don't have A2 paper (or space for it), but could stick some sheets together.
Tea is almost ready and I'm finishing washing off in the TD. Didn't do too bad on the line. Best get back into the kitchen.0 -

I've peeled, cored and quartered as many of the windfall apples as will fit in my large saucepan. I'll give the rest to OH to take home with him and do tomorrow. At some point we're going to have to pick and process the ones on the tree, but at the moment we can barely keep up with the windfalls. Luckily they stew very easily, so only need to be quartered, and quickly turn to fluff, so we're having apple every evening, then with porridge/muesli for breakfast, and then freezing the rest and doing a new batch every night.
Bed stripped, and grubby bedding in laundry bin. Clean sheets on the bed, ready for OH to help me make it before we go to bed. Now I need to decide what to wear tomorrow, and what to pack. Have I mentioned before that I hate packing0 -
pigpen I am ready when you are for the new thread.
