Have a confession to make - afraid I have done absolutely nothing today apart from stick a towel boil wash on, feed the birds outside twice and made copious amounts of tea for DH and myself. I do hate it when DH has impromptu days off from work it throws me all out.. He's snoozing in the chair opposite me with a dog curled up on his lap, oh what it must be like not to have a care in the world..lol
Have sent the CC emails out, hopefully I have done it right. If I haven't I am sure someone will let me know
No snow here, well apart from a tiny spattering in the early hours of this morning, although it is getting a bit dark now and the clouds are coming in but I don't think anything is going to come of it.
Ooh I had a thought, not sure how others feel about it, but wouldn't it be good if we could combine having all the christmas stuff done and our houses all nice and tidy etc by midday on Christmas Eve. Maybe we could have a challenge, like the ironing challenge, and those that wanted to could sign up for it.. What does everyone think? Or is it a daft idea..lol
Hugs and love to everyone, especially Toots, Diva, LW and LL. And lots of keep safe and warm vibes for those that are dealing with the snow at the moment.Monday ~ Kitchen and Dining room

#Hi LW, Don't go doing too much. I am having a flare too so understand.
I have been rather reckless with money but have ordered some spare parts for the fridge and dishwasher. If I can make them last longer I suppose it isn't being reckless but it really does feel like it. I used Quidco so am making a saving too.

Update Amazon listings
Finish mat
Find cheap picture frames on internet for Christmas pressies
Pay oil bill!!

Just flying in to say hello and hope the snow's not causing any disruption to any of you. We've not had any. Not been on as really busy and the house it reflecting that. Will desperately try and s/s later and pop in to catch up.
Hugs and warm vibes to all.

PartlyI don't have too busy a week this week so wanted to get the downstairs straight (did all of upstairs last week) before life gets too manic. Finished for the day now - living room, hall, family room all done
I'm hungry so need a snack or I'll be lightheaded for the squash/badminton/squash run that I need to start very soon.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
