I'm in again sorry for being late this week, thanks to all at FLCC

Decluttered a visit to Birmingham in the rain to a customer who forgot I was coming! she booked the appointment, and it went down hill from there, as she was not interested in anything I had to offer or say, I am so tempted to book her for my time, but my boss won't let me!!

Floors done
Recycling out

Hugs

Valli

HHC Lasted only 15 mins. I am now back on the sofa under blanket.. had a dizzy spell and decided I was due rest. Obviously not quite as energetic as I thought I was..

Have dusted though, washed up again and all thats left is hoovery stuff which can wait for now..

ETA Thanks, LW. He's 16 and may well be working it off this week, Dobby-fashion. I reckon I'll gain more from thaving a house elf then from saving a bit of money.

Heehee.. my Dobby is 19 and doesn't pay board and did a stupid with his mobile bill.. so I beat him with the rolled up 29 page long bill and he is on pot washing until the DW is fixed.. and then I'll find him another heinous task lol.. he WILL find a flat!!! lol

Love and hugs to all and Soappie...

Off for a shower in a sec..

TD reloaded
Cuppa made and swilled
Baby fed and watered.. cheeky minx scrabbled about on me in bed found my boob and helped herself!!! I can't even have boobs in peace!! The others were a lot older before they did that... she inspected OH's nips as well but wasn't very interested in them after looking at them VERY closely lol.

Today OH and I are tacklng the front room as per the list.. and the kitchen needs a thrice over!! lol.. and I need some shopping doing or else it is weetabix for dinner tonight.

I hurt my back yesterday shifting stuff about in the bedroom (not like that.. in fact he was flicked off lol) so I am NOT moving anything other than a few small bits.. I'll wipe and shuffle and direct but I cannot lift a thing.

I have 4 loads of dry stuff to fold before anything else is washed and I still have 4 full baskets... and ALL (bar DD2's) bedding needs changing. Duvets will go in on a rota once I have had a few days to get this mountain gone.

Oh, and the bunnies need mucking out today they honk.

So, I guess I need a plan..

Dailies.. with a lot of delegating!

Sorted out the cupboard under the sink - a bag full of stuff relocated to the garage (white spirit etc which I don't really like indoors and certainly won't want to store anywhere else when I empty the cupboard) and a few things binned. So how is the cupboard still full? Weird. Any I won't need to buy any more washing up scourers for about a year I think..... At least it's now all stuff I need to keep. I think all the cupboards are like that now so I will just have to get boxes and pack them all up. Should be fun. Not for a few weeks yet though.

Can I join you all? My house has always reflected my mental state and I was really down last week, after life gave me a knock I really didn't need.

Reckon doing this will help me stay on top this time round till my spirits lift a little as otherwise I'll end up depressed just because my home is a pigsty lol! I loathe housework so it's always the first thing to slip, and then I can't cook properly in a mucky kitchen, so we have a ready meal or take away, then ........well I'm sure you all know the script.

I stay on top of the basics, then I know myself, I'll get inspired by some crafty project which will then lift my spirits a bit and I'll be right as rain in no time.

Agree with this. When DS1 damaged something in anger I had my full value out of him with heavy jobs in the garden that I didn't want to do

Welcome :xmastree: sorry life has been mean, stick with us and at least your house will be back in good shape.

Serena, oh a visit to a nursery, how fun, hope you find something lovely

AnW hope you are having fun and Mum and you know who are remembering to fed you with all that chatting.

Time for a cuppa and then kids are to sort the drawers whilst I think about a shopping list and empty the WM although the maiden is stull full from last night so it may have to risk hanging on the line.

Welcome, budgetboo. I'll find you a tree :xmastree:so that our official Meeter'n'Greeter will see you; you'll get a pm with useful info.
Many of us have to deal with BD (Black Dog of Depression) on a regular basis, so we'll be happy to help you boot him out into the garden.:o

I've made a good start; also, I've done a few of the "usual" kitchen jobs (thinking it may be kitchen day tomorrow) as Mr LW will be at home tomorrow, so no chance to get any real cleaning done with having do do dins for midday and with him wanting intravenous tea!:rotfl:

Lunch break now; will check my email while I eat, then back to a little more of today's list.;)
