    Hope you're out of bed greenbee and not posting from underneath the covers!

    I'm out of bed now :p windows open, one load of laundry in, breakfast being made, and bits of tidying being done. Will get dressed after breakfast and then deal with rubbish and recycling. I also have some stuff to post so a short walk may be in order. First meeting is at 10am so I have a bit of time.

    Sun is shining, so hopefully it will be a nice day.

    That's sounding more positive. Have a good day. I suppose I'd better go to work now.

    Good morning everyone, back to Monday again. I've had a major triumph over the weekend. While DS & I were out on Saturday morning he offered to hoover living room but while doing it, he moved the sofas & hoovered/cleared underneath & got rid of cobwebs in the corners. AND all the clutter from under the sofa was put away before we got back. Then on Sunday he did all the small DIY jobs that needed doing around the house without being asked. :j:j:j:j:j:j:j

    Anyway, my list for today. I will try and start the oven as it may take a while. May try for outside & inside the door today.

    Newbie here joining in

    Will probably be just level 1 plus some decluttering, but will see how I go. Hopefully this will help me focus on getting stuff done instead of procrastinating as it just seems overwhelming

    thank you
