    Evening all,

    Thanks to FCC.

    Even though i didn't complete one list last week i did feel like i'd achieved something, so i'm hoping to do better this week. I need to get into some sort of routine as i'm spending a lot of time working and hardly any on the house but because i'm working from home it irritates me to see too much mess.:cool: Last week i was trying to get my dailies done before 9am, then work until 3pm and then housework and stuff until 8pm and then work again and it sort of worked a bit so maybe i'll try that again this week.

    Ds2 was sick last night so i've had to wash all his and my bedding. My duvet that goes under the sheet won't fit in the wm so i'm going to have to see if it fits in OH's.

    My Extras

    Clean the rabbits
    Find a way to wash my duvet
    Declutter dining room
    Transfer money
    Finish Christmas shopping
    Wrap presents
    Paperwork

    I'm in this week. Thanks go to Pigpen and Toots

    JulieJim Having had a very expensive experience with lost car keys I am sending finding key vibes your way.

    Froddington Hope you get those 5 presents bought..

    I still haven't really got to grips with the wrapping of presents yet. 98% are bought following our trip to the ghost town of Bluewater on Thursday.

    The Ironing Challenge has had a major assult launched at it tonight. I have teetering piles of beautifully ironed clothes and door frames bedecked with hung shirts, skirts and trousers. Please don't be disheartened, I still have an equally large mountain to tackle tomorrow night when DH is away in Birmingham.

    Looking forward to seeing what tomorrow's list is.....

    Hi,

    I am in again - thanks to all at FCC

    I have had a nice birthday, thank you all for my birthday wishes.

    Had a lovely lunch out, but also managed to do some ironing, clean the kitchen and utility and change the bed. Also done lots of washing.

    DH away in Blackburn tomorrow night, so intend to iron with carp tv.

    That reminds me please put me down for the ironing challenge :p

    Sending all the right vibes to all the right people :D
