DRUM ROLL.......
I have finished ALL of the ironing.:j
Last time I saw the bottom of the ironing basket was June last year just before our summer holiday.
Off to bed - the madness begins again at 5.45 when the alarm goes off for work.
I LOVE YOU ALL - THANKS FOR THE TEAM SPIRIT (YES I KNOW I'M SHOUTING):D:pYesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift

Wish I'd known earlier, I would have pm'd you to have him round for some dinner ! He's away that neck of the woods quite often so I will remember this thank you xThis may be too late to help you, but please send me a pm if I can help out. Very close to home!
I am guilty of this as well :rotfl:listed more stuff on e bay and managed to list one item twice. For some reason I can't delete so, taking a leaf out of piggers book I'm now selling a 'revise' :rotfl:
that will teach me NOT to talk on the phone and attempt to list simultaneously :rotfl:
You've caught my DS2's Tonsillitis by the sound of the yukky tonsills. Get yourself to the doctors Dippy!Thanks for that Piggers , I'll try and get rid of this sore throat, it feels like I've swallowed broken glass.
Salt water gargles make it feel a little better, but not for long.
Peering in the mirror,(ewww), tonsils look yukky doo.
Darn it... got too much to do.
I'm trying to cajole my mother into renting out her house (near London underground station and lucrative) and moving out to the sticks with me (cheap rents). She is s a little bit tempted but it will take alot of pushing. She is presently worried about not having enough money to go round and this seems a good solution to me. I wouldn't abuse her babysitting services as much as my bruv and sis as I have always fitted my working around my children.
More ironing done tonight whilst playing with a housework virus on FB;). Basket is nearly empty! I suspect with a 7 person household I will never achieve a truly empty ironing status!
Goodnight! See you all tomorrow.0 -

Morning All
WM's on but that's about it so far but it is still early. Going to the pictures today but I'm expecting an AF order so I'm waiting until that gives me a delivery time so I can work around it. I've also got some stuff to be collected from freecycle but I haven't arranged a time for that yet - it may be tomorrow. Need to put some more stuff in the charity bag before I put it out aand organise the 2 bags of stuff I've got to give to 2 of my friends so they can go today.
I'll strip the bed shortly when I'm ready for it to go into the WM. Not sure how much more I'll get done in the BR today as there's still stuff I want to do downstairs.
Katiecat - hugs - feel free to come on here and rant if need be - you can always pm me if you want to.
Have a good day all
Hugs

DRUM ROLL.......
I have finished ALL of the ironing):D:p
Way to go Max! I am in awe of people who do ironing full stop - I have NEVER gotten to the bottom unless someone else did it
well done you! :T
Toots - don't worry pet! It's just a big move and a lot to do. TC I think also asked the question about where. It will be a new place for both of us. He has a good job and it's not practical for him to move to Wales... so we are moving - to England. Not just to another house in the same town! :eek:
It's just so much to do.... I feel procrastination taking over already..
