Mountaineering is necessary to get to the loo as they've all been dumped in the bathroom!"I know that Prince Charming doesn’t come save me, we save each other and fight back to back against all comers that’s what marriage is to me. Nothing passive, no being carried off on a white steed, give me my own damn horse and lets ride into the sunset side by side." - Laurell K. Hamilton.0 -

About to start watching the rugby. Have roped DH into a HHC (sort of) in both half times. I WILL find the kitchen, and he WILL find the floor under the dog hair.GC Mar 13 £47.36/£1500

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
I hereby confess that I set the defrag to start running at 9.45 am (today) ........... and it's just finished running. :eek:
But then I guess as all the spies are hard at work you already knew that. :rotfl:
Started well this morning by tackling the kitchen floor. Moved to the dining room, swept the carpet ......... then was mightily distracted by the area underneath the piano, which was so cluttered I couldn't actually use it.
Result. Stool and underneath decluttered and stuff binned, relocated or otherwise removed ...... included furry fluffs. Stool polished with nice wax polish. Mmmmmmmmm. Piano lid open and score in place. :T
Just about to declutter a mug of tea ...... if anyone wants to join me. Then I'm off to look at the living room - and obviously do something positive in there.
By the way, as Mr B so far appears to have failed to notice a single effort I have made this year, :mad: if he dares to come home from work tonight and pass no positive remark, I may not be responsible for what happens next. Please can the Pigpen spies go and whisper something appropriate in his ear.Work is not my Hobby0 -
IM SO HAPPY, HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY. I JUST GOT A TEXT AND HE IS HEADING BACK ON THE 17TH
:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
oh rubbish, now got a week to get the house in total order and get the wedding stuff under control :eek:
right 2 x hhc now!0
