So, very virtuous this morning.- Banking etc done
- Curtains moved round (living room ones taken down and washed (they're going to Mooloo next week to get turned into Roman blinds for Spain :T), bed 2 curtains to living room, bed 3 curtains to bed 2, spare curtains (very flimsy things, I think a tenant left them behind?) ironed and hung in bed 3.
- Car to car wash for in & out clean
- Dolly & I walked to Lidl while that was happening and stocked up on fruit & veg
- Drove to Mr T, took pics of car at far end of car park as putting up for sale next week, then into Mr T for some bits'n'pieces
- Drove back to Lidl, parked car and walked to town & back, saving 60p parking and getting extra steps in
- Drove home to see how many steps............Fitbit sitting on the table :rotfl::(:rotfl::(:rotfl:
- Made myself a nice pineapple-jelly-yogurt-fluff thingy for tonight :T

- Measure 2 doors and text sizes to fitter
- Bring small freezer out of cupboard, play freezer tetris in other freezer so all fits in
- Defrost & photo freezer for listing on ebay
- Photo & list Henry Hoover on ebay - we've never really hit it off :rotfl:

- Cook [STRIKE]romantic[/STRIKE] sad, lonely, dinner for one :rotfl:

Your list of things to do and things done is epic!
I thought my de-cluttering was extreme when I de-cluttered a car.... I think de-cluttering an OH beats that!:rotfl:Early retired - 18th December 2014
If your dreams don't scare you, they're not big enough0 -
Linky to Henry please?
My DS ADORES him!0 -
Yep, great listing skills demonstrated there
and I do like the idea of taking the photo to sell the car in the supermarket car park - safety an' all that.

I thought I'd done really well but don't seem to have achieved much.
Film watched and deleted but not claiming it was something decluttered :rotfl:. It's A Wonderful Life. I realise I was of very few people not to have seen it. I'm now one of very few people to not really like it. Oh dear, does that make me a bad person

If it does, then I'm one too, can't stand it! This may or may not have something to do with three years working on the top floor of the HMV in Cambridge, where the team leader loved it to bits and would play it on continuous loop every time it was re-released for Christmas.0 -
I found it very mawkish.0
