Definately!

Well this morning I folded up and put away what didn't need ironing, I didn't get away with all of it but a lot less in the ironing pile!

Now, did anyone find a decluttering spell :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

No decluttering spell, but there seems to have been a cleaning fairy arrived overnight as somehow the bin is full! Its usually the washing up bowl that fills itself overnight.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Together we *will* win :j

I'm just pootling through the newsletter - downloading free kindle books, one of which, weirdly, is "With Moore at Corunna" - thats the Napoleonic era, one of my Irish ancestors was fighting in Spain a little bit later, so that might well add a little bit of colour.

Another rotten night's sleep .... I'll be really glad when this weather breaks.

The list-job for today is just to clean the patio chairs and table. I can do that late afternoon - I'm finished at 5, tho I'll need something to eat then. Actual work is 3.5 hours, tho some of that is on the phone, so this morning a bit of normal cleaning is required, plus I might well manage a bit of scanning, hurray! No brekkie yet tho, so that comes first.

Hmmmm - question...

can unforseen happenings be counted as 'TADAs'...

because ALL my list end up in 'slippage time' - especially at work!!!!!

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I give you official permission to count anything and everything if it makes you feel better - that is the point of the exercise after all. Don't forget to hitch a drumroll, fore and aft. :T:T:T

Today is our last day at this site and we will be having a meal out by the river at lunch time.:j But first, we have to gird our loins and clear out the back of the car - who knows what we will find? :eek:

We may be some time.

Boo to not sleeping well, but imagine what its like without double glazing. All the heat sneaks through the windows during the day and warms the rooms up making it impossible to get cool.

Free kindle books? Must do some research.

Good luck with the back of the car, Tricia!

Without double glazing - absolutely! And my bedroom is on the east of the house, so it gets no direct sunlight after midday .... plus now that I have insect screening on one window, I feel comfortable about leaving it open all night. I may try for another one today, actually, so that it might be a bit better tonight.

There's a little tabby cat sound asleep at the bottom of my garden. I keep going to the window and going "aaahhhhhhhhh"

Sorry you've slept badly - yay to paid work and cute puddycats

I spent alot of yesterday staring at the bird table, nothing productive done, only looking at the birdies its hypnotic, if a little unproductive!

Glad you liked it, Pippi!

And the little kitten was back tonight, and I heard neighbours giggling and oohing and aahing over it

Well! There's been slippage in the plans, folks :o:o I had to do another 45 mins or so work - introductory stuff and non-paid phone calls, sadly, so no extra dosh to show immediately, but all necessary. And I felt I needed to get out to Sainsbo, but couldn't shop properly as my tummy felt a little off-centre, which was unpleasant. Still picked up a few things tho, and some tillspits that look like good value.

And then .... it was patio furniture cleaning, with what time was left. And its all filthy, the aluminium chairs with algae because they've not been used for 2 years, and the grotty plastic table because its cheap grot thats very old. And all of it has funny little corners for dirt and algae to collect in :eek: end result is I've done the table (including underneath, mostly ) and one chair. And hopefully I'll be able to sit out there tomorrow, even tho the weather's supposed to be changing :j

And to finish on a ta-da - I scanned four *huge* documents, 20 pages each or so, which gets rid of a goodly amount of paper

Sleep well all.

What do you mean by that? Your stomach is off-centre, but why did it feel different?
