How did you do AnW'smum? I have mopped and swept the floors and wiped over the worktops, two phone calls too!

Forgot to report back!

Up until now I have emptied the DW, put WM, emptied the TD and folded contents.
Paired socks and put underwear away.
Unpacked/detagged most of the uniform I bought this morning. (Miss A needs to try the trousers to make sure they don't fall off her before I detag those, she has no waist!)
Checked online banking.
Hoovered the car out, which took ages as it had not been done since last summer that said it was not too bad but always seems to take an age hence the length of time since it was last done.

SOmehow it doesn't look much but I haven't stopped honest!

Lunch now and a HDD declutter

I'm in; many thanks FCC for the lists, mules and general encouragement. :beer:
Some of today's list is done, however Postie brought me some paperwork to do, and as I have a reputation to maintain (for always turning it around within 24 hours unless I'm on holiday), that took precedence. All done now though, so preparing for takeoff.

Greenbee No words of wisdom for you I'm afraid (mainly cos I'm totally carp at relationships), but major amounts of posi-vibes, as I reckon you could use them.:o

Mumto5 oh, no, your poor paw! Have you found out what's gone wrong with it? Please take care of yourself, and get the tribe to do whatever jobs want doing.

Toots Whoa, easy there, my friend! Should I send “non-manic” vibes, perhaps?;)

LadyL Can I offer you a Wolfy (((HUG)))? I realise it must be a terribly difficult time for you, saying farewell to such a dear friend. I was shocked to realise Diva was younger than me – life can be so unfair sometimes.:(

Dusty Hoppy Bird-day – have a lovely day!

Ooh, and Happy Belated Birthday Choccybix. Sorry, must've missed seeing that it was you birthday.

Cyclingyorkie Esther Rantzen is one of an alarmingly large number of people I'd line up against a wall and shoot, given half a chance! Oh, and don't get me on my soapbox about the Daily Fail..... I do sympathise – a while back that same paper ran an article on some celebrity (can't remember who) who'd been “cured” of lupus within a week by following some special diet. I mean, if that were the cure, I think the doctors would have all lupies on it like a shot!:mad: Sorry, now I'm going into rant mode!

My weight loss has now hit 2 and a half stone, since I started using the Wii on 14th January 2010; I have to go through ALL my clothes at some stage, but I've put each separate drawer/cupboard on my “Toots OMG” list, and will be enlisting Mr LW's help. I'll have to try a lot of things on, and I need assistance with dressing; also I get very disheartened doing that sort of major task on my own, and would be likely to just chuck the lot. Not very MSE, that.:D

That said, Mr LW is taking me out to The Boat Inn for dins tonight – 3 course jobbie, in the restaurant. So I'm not eating during the day today (just a few grapes to keep me going) or I won't be able to eat a big dinner.;)

I do need to find a way to chain up the BD though; he's been plaguing me all weekend,:( and I need him suppressed tonight, so as not to spoil the evening for Mr LW.

Right, I must go and get on; having landed on the deck a couple of times over the weekend, and having a very painful shouldder, I'm not going to be doing anything that requires the step stool or a lot of stretching for now. All I have to do now is work out how to stop feeling guilty about this..... lol life's never straight forward, is it?:o

After a promising start (made beds/washing sorted/DS room tidied/cats fed the morning ran away from me (pointless surfingans sneaky checks on ebay stuff:cool:. Gonna start on kitchen at 2pm.

Dusty - happy birthday!!:beer:
ShySarah - glad you had a lovely time
LW - there are blogs dedicated to cataloguing the millions of 'causes' of cancer too. I sometimes go on Daily Fail site if I need to get revved up a bit - it works, it really works:p Well done on the weightloss too!

LW Turning garden hose on BD for you. We decided to stay in tonight as he's been plaguing me for the last week and I didn't want to waste an evening out. Steak and chips for dinner!

As we are now going to Paris for 5 days instead of Egypt I now have to re-think my packing list and do a load of washing. Then BM on, stock to freezer, rubberized chicken turned into pie for tomorrow. Freezer sorted so DH can find his food. Haven't heard from pigpen so I'm taking it as permission to skip the oven:D

Afternoon

Happy Birthday Dusty - hope you are having a lovely day
Cycling - what a silly nare ER is - rant away and with just cause
LW - have a lovely meal tonight and only do what you can today, no point in ruining the evening for the sake of a bit of dusting

I have hoovered the whole of downstairs as it was getting to the point that even with shoes on I didn't want to walk on the floor!! Lovely and clean now, have also been out with Mum this morning and done more stuff for Monday. DS took all his footie stuff in from Sturday to do a show and tell with it, footie kit is being washed nightly so that it can be worn again the next day!!!

I shall be wearing purple on Friday as a mark of respect for Diva and hugs to LL and her family

Off to do something but am running out of steam now and I've awful heartburn at the mo so need to drink some Milk [disgusting stuff]

Have a good day all

Love and hugs to all
