    OMG I know exactly what you mean! People always say I am organised but, like you, I just have lists everywhere as otherwise I would forget everything!!

    ...so it's desperation, thinly disguised as organisation! :p

    that's pretty much sums up my day today, that at the word hellish!

    Didn't get round to posting up a list for today, but have already done quite a bit seemingly....

    TA DA!
    Up, showered, hairwashed, dressed.
    Natter on the phone with a good friend for a while
    Washing from Airer, folded and put away
    washing from machine (dried overnight) folded and put in airing cupboard
    Leaflets done and printed for business promotion. I WILL deliver these tomorrow to two business estates. (I will I will I WILL!)
    Letter written to Renault to ask them to please do a minor repair on my car FOC as it's not long out of warranty and I feel that it shouldn't have really had a boot-lid strut fail on it. Fingers crossed on this as otherwise the part alone is £70
    Letters to insurance companies printed ready to send.
    Updated client invoice.
    Another half hour of eBay photographs done

    Just off now for a walk in the sunshine to round up any more Avon books that are waiting for me. hope it's as lovely with you as it is here - except that I know it's not with Pippi - it's very VERY windy where she is!

    NSD's here Tuesday and yesterday, and it will be another one today I think, so well on target at the moment.

  • Thats a good TADA list,

    Renault seem to be pretty fair over parts that fail. A friend has one about 10 years old and that just had the bonnet catch replaced on a recall.

    The weather all over the world seems to be crazy at the moment, I'm thankful for each calm dry day we have :).

    once again you're been busy and much more productive than i have, my hat is off to you!
    Have a feeling i'll need to employ Kim and Aggie to come in before i let you though my door, if you ever came to visit that is.
  • ROFL @ LT - no, trust me, you SO won't need to do that! :D At the moment I'm keeping the front room reasonably tidy as, in fairness, I'm at home a lot more than I ever have been in the past so I have no excuse not too. The spare room, however.....well, you know Cheri's "Room of Doom"? :o Ours is a bit like that too :o

    The letter to Renault is now in the post....fingers crossed I hear back from them favourably. it's a proper sob-story mixed in with a bit of good old fashioned dissatisfaction so fingers crossed!

    Got a few more odd jobs done this afternoon including putting both shower curtains through the wash. One is now back over the bath and the other is drying over the airer. It's one of those irritating jobs I've been putting off forever so it's good to have it done.

    In other news...

    I have £6.00 in my purse (NSD's are great!)
    I have £1.44 credit on my mobile I think...

    i do truly hate the state that this place gets into sometimes. One of the side effects of using up my toiletry stash will be an empty draw in a chest of draws, a shelf in our 'larder' type cupboard and a 80ltr plastic tub on top of the wardrobe! I could put a fair bit of stuff away if i could free up this space.
