    Morning all.

    Didn't check in yesterday as it was DD's birthday and a very long day since I only managed 3.5hrs sleep the night before :eek: I'm still yawning now and feel another day of numerous coffees ahead of me.

    I'm up "early" for the holidays as I'm waiting on my Avon delivery arriving and he can come any time after 7am apparently. I've also got a mountain of studying to do with my deadline being midday Friday :eek: DD is being very helpful though and doing loads of housework for me :D She will be rewarded when she gets back from a weekend away at X's parents because she goes Friday afternoon!

    Lets see whats on the list for this household then (If its gone its done or N/A):

    Dailies:
    Make beds
    [STRIKE]MT[/STRIKE]!!!!!!
    Wash Up
    [STRIKE]MT[/STRIKE]!!!!!!

    OTHER
    Studying (me)
    Violin practice - 90min to go this week
    Homework (2 pieces down, 1 to go and some extras she's asked me to print out so she can do some extra practice on some maths stuff she's not too confident on)
    Reading - 60 minutes of reading out loud left this week
    Avon delivery - check & organise into orders ~ DD has said she'll do this for me while I study so I can chase anything up ASAP :) She'll be earning some extra commission this time ;)

  • Hi everyone,

    Sorry I haven’t been on for the last couple of days as my OH took a couple of days off to ‘help’. I won’t go into details but the punctuation says it all! My cat is poorly too L He’s gone to the vets today for an xray and possible operation on his back leg as he’s limping.

    The plastering has been done in the master bedroom which means that cleaning is a little impossible as the contents is piled up in the study.

    Ok so here’s my things to do for today:

    Master bedroom

    Sand walls and seal plaster

    Living room
    Vacuum

    Kitchen and dining room

    Clear and wipe work surfaces
    Scrub down the front of units and large appliances


    My aim this week is to keep the living room maintained whilst doing as much decorating as possible in the bedroom.

    Time to pour the tea and think of making breakfast.

    Hugs, spoons and sticks to all.:A

    Apologies for absence.

    Assignment has gone - it's carp, but it's gone - now had better do something about the chaos that has built up over the last few days:o

    Have been skimming the thread so please help yourselves to hugs, spoons and sticks as needed.
    I will try and catch-up later today.

    LW - if they mess you around again bung it all in a box and get Mr LW to dump it on the DM's doorstep.

    Toots - glad you have your PA well trained.

    Not sure what happened to the sunny spring day they were promising - it's OK, just not fantastic and I really need to get into the garden. I'm not a wimp (OK a bit) - just have a not very sheltered corner house.
