I'm off list, I'm pressing on down stairs. Its easier for me to do the whole level of a house, rather than worrying about hoover mountaineering. I've made a good start in the kitchen and I'm waiting for the water to heat up before starting again.0

Morning
2x wm done, living room & kitchen window cleaned, breakfast cleared etc. I have set a timer for some sterilising of cups and it is reminding me how long I'm on computer too. May use it so I don't lose myself ion cyberspace in future.
Just going to do car tax then am off to see my Mum. Wonder where the sat nav will send me this time?

Morning all
Kids all decluttered to school but two have colds so not sure if they'll make the duration. Also found out that an elderly neighbour has passed away. She was 94 and wanted to go but there seems so much passing right now. I need news of babes!DD2 has thrown a temperature and is in our bed. She got hit in the face today by a PC at the end of school today and has gone downhill fast.
Hope DD2 is ok, how do you get hit in the face by a PC:eek:
Need to finish my dailies, make some bread and then pop out to the galleria to look for a couple of bits.
Main flyinging today is continuing with paperwork in the family room (that is the aim of the week) plus to clean the kitchen windows and window sill.
Serena - hope you are feeling a bit better today
Toots and LL love to you both.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

HHC now anyone?Official Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0
