    little bit of study clearing - have finally sorted my online banking access after only the THREE years of being locked out:eek: does that count as decluttering? - that was a right old HHC on the phone!

    Moved some stuff from the study into the loft (RoD.......)

    Also cleared and dusted the front room ready for DH party on the weekend:beer:

    Done the dailies bar S&S of the bathroom - I'll do that while the kids are in the bath. I love this flylady task list - its so much more achievable and useful than those bloomin emails!:kiss:

N/A – everything for flinging is in the charity boxes or the recycling or the rubbish (did a quick [STRIKE]run[/STRIKE] hobble round to double-check) or otherwise the area is on my Toots list as needing Mr LW's assistance to deal with.
    1. Clean 2 radiators or the skirting in any room of your choice!.. or if you have the bug today you could do both! ;)
    2. Clean any one (or more) window that needs doing
    That's it.... I've had it for now. Got to make bangers'n'mash in a short while (Mr LW has just rung to say he's "escaping" as he puts it).

    He's at home (working) tomorrow, so don't know if I'll get onto MSE, but will try.;)

    Another day of charging around, the country side, and doing lots of odd jobs, 8 ticked off the list today, not that I have ever got around to putting the list up, it would take me long than doing a couple of jobs.

    With the new road south of MK at j13 M1, I can now go to the bottom of the black cat roundabout A1 in approx, 35 mins use to take about 1 hour, so brill................dual carraige way, not traffic lights or roundabouts!!!

    Dinner cooked eating my bit, fully supervised by the cat!!!, OH is working late and says he might not want anything.....so that is easy to do.

    Hope you have all had a good day. xx

    :rotfl:

    So far, I have cleaned the windows in the little bedroom (study)
    cleaned my monitor to get rid of some marks that have been there for ages ( cat bottom if I recall :o)

    Phoned my mobile phone provider and failed to use my charm to get a wicked new deal, so have asked for a PAC to leave them.

    Enrolled for nightclass - Dressmaking Taster - starts next Monday for 3 weeks :eek:

    Put some washing away

    Got dinner on the go..........

    Back later..........
