Starting a list of before Christmas things I'd like to achieve or finish GreenBee style, along with detailed this week lists like PenPens style. Why reinvent the wheel - thank you ladies :T:T

Morning All
Think I may have done too much yesterday as I'm feeling rather achey today - I thought I was having a quick recovery after Fri/Sat.
Anyway, plan for today is:
Whatever I get done before I go to work probably inc HHI.
Work
Put Beaver uniform on at work
Drop friend off
Pick kids up
Pick DH up from hospital
Grab a McDs for tea
Drop DH and DD off at home
Pick up 2 other Beavers
Go to Beavers
Come home collapse and go to bed!
Hmm - not sure where I'll fit much flying in today.
DH is off today though so he is going to the CS to get rid of the things I sorted out yesterday. I think that's all he's got planned to do flying wise although I'm not going to bother washing the dishes as he should do that. He did do some ironing yesterday but there's still a load left.
Hugs to Hollyh and poohpals.
Hi to all newbies.
Have a good day all
Hugs
