Well I managed to get in and more importantly out of the bath without too much trouble, feel tired now tho'!
Have paid a couple of bills, tidied the top of my printer aka office hot spot and decluttered some banana on toast for lunch. May need to go and lie down to recover....Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last0 -

Hi Everyone :wave:
Hope you are all well today, just updating list, I done a lot of extra stuff in the kitchen yesterday which lets me cross a fair bit off. I was busy last night getting stuff downloaded for Peppy Monkey Buns (our Christmas elf) this is the first year doing this and my OH says I am more excited than the kids will be :rofl: I LOVE Christmas, am a big kid at heart I guess.

Lunch has been and gone, hubby fixed DD's lamp so it's now back in it's rightful place. Been up in attic and found the mattress topper, extra quilt and more winter coat so thats all now down. Bed topper on bed and fresh bedding on.
Hubby was looking for a charger in the bedroom so it was pulled apart and no sign. Searched the filling thing and no luck but did find my bath panel stuff so most sort it this week. Finally found the charger on top of the kitchen cupboard.
Think i'll carry on in the bedroom for awhile and sort through more stuff for ebay.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.:j :j0 -

welcome Mollina Girl, Willow92, aless02,cheese addict,Melbat, EllieA - you have all had a pm which i hope will help a bit - we are all here for the same reason - to get our homes tidy so jump on the wagon and join us - but a word of warning - dont try to keep up with the thread or you will get nothing done!!! the important thing for now is to try to keep up with the lists on post 1.
sarah Joanne - sorry to hear you and the baby are poorly - hope you both feel better very soon - and huge (((hugs)) for a speedy recovery for your Grandad - what a shock for you all.
I somehow dont think the words 'sane sensible and Valli' all belong in the same sentence:p:D:rotfl:
Willow well done doing a bit in both places - have you more 'freedom' to do stuff at your fiance's? if you are going to be living there once you are married it will be good to use the lists to get into good routines now.
MsGnomey - [STRIKE]is that wise honey - would it not be better to wait until Dh is home? be very careful if you do go ahead.[/STRIKE] glad you have managed but take it easy and dont be rushing things - hope you enjoyed the bath xx
Dusty (((hugs))) angel - hope whatever it is goes away quickly with the AB's - take it easy xx
aj hope you are not overdoing it (((hugs)))
sammr85 (((hugs))) that was last week honey - this week will be better - do one thing nice for yourself everyday until you feel brighter - and keep posting!!!!!!!

Collect/ sell/bin 10 things-can't do this as I'm a bit of a hoarder I'm afraid-I'll never be a true flylady, however did get rid of at least 10 things from the very yucky fridge. Fridge was so bad I'm surprised we've not been ill!!
HHI-just about to start.

Getting started now!July grocery- 24.40/220. NSD-1/3.
Myself, DD, 2 cats, 35 weeks pregnant.
