    Ninth Anniversary
    Hi to everyone and hope all are well.

    Just home from work but have cleaned living room and folded up some washing so things looking quite tidy.

    Litter tray washed and pet food dishes all clean -animals sat waiting for their tea.

    Have also made a phone call to a friend from several years ago. We lost touch but met again just before Christmas It has taken a lot for me to phone her as I suffer with depression and find it hard to make friends as I live very much in my own world so I dont get hurt :(

    still she was a good friend so fingers crossed she will call me in a couple of weeks.

    off to make tea and feed those animals !

  • Too shattered yesterday to do anything at all so got up early this morning to do yesterday's list - can't quite believe I did that!

    Monday ~ Kitchen, Utility and Dining areas
    Level One - Done! :j
    Level Two - Done! (Except for Fridge which had good scrub last week) :j

    Tuesday ~ Living room/family room or other reception room!
    Level One - Done! :j

    Level Two - Done! :j
    Level Three - Done (except for a very sticky hoya plant that refuses to be cleaned properly and has been dripping goo everywhere :eek:- any self-respecting housewife would have sorted it months ago but as I'm constantly being reminded, I am anything but a self-respecting housewife!)

    Not to be outdone, DH decided he was going to do his Wed duties tonight too...

    Wednesday ~ Master bedroom
    Level One - Done :j (Except replacing bedding - I'd already made the bed before I saw the list so I'll do that first thing tomorrow)
    Level Two - Done!
    Extras - Finished accounts for Jan - £26 over budget :eek:. Think I need to join the grocery challenge too!

    Shattered again now but at least I don't have to think about tomorrow's list...

    Haven't had time to keep up with all of you - that's what doing three days' jobs in one does to you! Will try to catch up now...

    Goodnight everyone!
