    What a good man! Before I moved in with Mr LW, I was in a house (bungalow now) and cleaning the outsides of the upstairs windows used to entail me perching on the windowsills inside, opening the windows wide, and reaching round from inside. How I managed not to fall out, I'll never know!:D
    I used to sit on the window ledge and lean over:eek:

    Evening :D

    House vacd top to bottom and sofas and cushions too.
    Some of the cushions are still in a right state with cat hair. Any tips for getting it off?

    Bathroom done
    Dinner cooked and another one in the slow cooker cos the chicken needed using.
    Have been up in loft again with DH. Binbag to go to charity shop tomorrow, and another tip run needed.

    5 out of 6 items sold on ebay, so i need to wrap them ready for the PO tomorrow.

    Just been catching my breath and looking at a site of housey/gifty stuff.
    For those getting married soon - have a look at these
    They are just fab! Lots of other lovely wedding stuff too - candles and bridesmaid gifts.

    Tomorrow I will do the cooker and oven :p

    Might be back later - depends on how the wrapping goes :mad:

    Yesterday is history
    Tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift
    That's why we call it 'The Present'

    Hi all and the noobs :wave:

    Have decluttered DS1 over to his mates so they can play 'Halo' 'til
    silly o'clock.

    Found 2 jars of value pasta sauce in the back of the cupboard.
    Use by date on them was Nov 2009, :eek: (lids had not 'popped'), did it in a potato bake with carrot and onion. NOMNOM...

    Seconded!

    It's lovely that so many people remembered Diva today. She was special.

    I've not done much since coming in - just chilled and fed myself, DH and DS2. DS1 is not sure what he wants yet, as he's had an upset stomach today.

    My 3rd victoria sandwich of the week apparently went down well in the bake sale at school (for the local hospice). I'd filled it with choc spread, so will try that again. Maybe add some cherries for a friend's birthday in May. At least I don't regret baking at 6am this morning.

    When DH is out and DS2 is in bed I will make a start - at least fill the WM with towels and do a load in the DW. I'm so tired and it's going to be a busy half-term. If I can get my act together I'll make a list of everything I need to do for work and sort out my budget - if not the budget will get done in the morning and the list sometime this weekend.

    Have a good evening, everyone. I shall find a bottle to open in a bit. I'm looking forward to being part of the thread more while I'm off.
