Monday list done in memory of Diva. I didn't know her but she was obviously a lovely and much-loved lady. For years my handwritten list has begun "Light Fire / Feed cats..." and I've always managed to cross those 2 things off it fortunately . Thought of her today as I did them. Haven't anything purple to wear myself but found a football top of DSs which I will wear for decluttering later (given the difference in our chest sizes, I think the shirt will be decluttered itself by the end of it ) and will light candles later.

Thanks for the gentle start to the week. Had a frenzy yesterday to get rid of my bad mood and it included the living room. This really is starting to work for me now. Thank you!! Today will be spent meal planning, maybe shopping and decluttering RoD. I've almost got round the house. Then the plan is to dust off the very lovely laminated sheets of jobs (only 6 years old :cool:) which people can then pick from each day to share the load. Like me,they do well in a crisis but need a nudge on the day-to-day

Im in again this week but will be mostly lurking. Not in a very good frame of mind and seem to be wallowing in self pity. Doesnt help that its my wedding anniversary on Wednesday and my ex is out enjoying life and im sat here bloody miserable. Doesnt help that he wont divorce me, doesnt pay me maintenance, doesnt work, doesnt bother with his kids from one week to the next but has taken on a new daddy role with someone elses. Grrrrrrrr.

OK rant over im off to boot the black dog up the asre and get some cleaning done.

Rant away - sounds like he's behaving like a prize g.i.t. (((hugs)))

pigpen - hope you get the desired response!

Take it easys, get wells, hugs to anyone who wants them xx

Just a thought re the purple list in memory of Diva...there seems to be more than one list now (see below).
I added my name to the last one I saw but I now see one further down and my name, and some others, are no longer there so presumably someone picked up an earlier list and some of our names were not on it .

Any suggestions how to avoid this, or does it not matter ? (I was just not happy to see a good few of us who had added ourselves on appeared to be chopped off, I think this happened just after toochoosey's post on p2!)

Or should we forget the list and just add our own name to the pledge- and maybe someone could pick all the names up (I would happily do it if they were all easy to see ?). Maybe I am over analysing .

The two current ones, changing as we speak!

I the undersigned do hereby pledge to do Purple Monday's list in memory of the lovely Diva :-

How did you get on AnW's?

Well I found the rest of the floor and hoovered it. Now need to find a plastic box for all the lego. I also folded the clothes from out of the TD. DW is on (did I say that before?!) Also checked online banking and decluttered a programme from the HHD.

Another HHC at 10.45?

OS I know what you mean about the purple list, if you are happy to amalgamate them both then that would be great. Many Thanks

And has anyone ever done baked cauliflower? DH dont like it and I got a whole one - Might see if I can do something he might eat (And I'm awkward I dont eat cheese )

can you not just do a bechemel sauce/white sauce instead of a cheese sauce. sometimes i prefer a white sauce when i do brocolli cheese (dont like cauliflower).

My only concern is the same thing will happen again....never mind think I am just splitting hairs....as long as we know we are doing it I am not sure we need a long list anway ? xxx
