    I am so tired! Back at work and after only one day the house is starting to slide! I have managed to tidy all my things away but OH has left a mini trail of destruction where ever he has been!

    Nothing else for it then, he will have to be de-cluttered. Sweep him into a box and put it in the loft.

    Good morning messies :D Im back :rotfl:
    I have been so busy again the days just run :(

    My thoughts are with you Frugal ((hug))

    I have just caught up with 4 pages :o but my brain is mush these days (I blame the kids :rotfl:)

    Yesterday I gave the house a realy good clean through then DD decided to shower the dog :mad: so after he had finished carpet surfing I have to hoover up again today :( but the good side is he does smell better :D

    I hope to clear some clutter today as my DS and mum are doing a CB when I do a craft stall so Im going to give the stuff to them to sell for me :D
    I need to get more items on ebay :o

    I hope everyone is takeing them baby steps and ((hugs)) for all :D
    Getting myself sorted 1 day/1thing at a time :) and Love sewing :)

    Thinking of you Frugal and sending good vibes your way.

    Well not a lot of progress for me for a few days as i can't seem to get rid of visitors . They seem to think we're a cross between a nursery, taxi service and a hotel.lol and that's not counting the cafe they think i'm running.

    Oh well hopefully progress will resume tomorrow . Though my grandson is staying over tomorrow night i have another one booked in for saturday while his parents go to a wedding. One son to collect from work at 3 and return him and grandson who's here now home then 2 sons to collect from sheffield between six and seven. Oh well it's better than doing the laundry.

    Frugal - thinking of you

    OK, I have finished Dd's room and she is over the moon with it, I bought her a dressing table [think 1950's] from a charity place and we were going to sand it down and paint it but due to time constraints I just bunged it in her room this morning and she loves it, as it is, so thats a biggie job that I now don't have to do. 1 of the drawers has a wallpaper front to it but its gone wrong a bit - the paper has wrinkled so I'll need to pull it off before I do the others and find different glue [Kids PVA just doesn't do the job lol] Even though I say so myself, I think the room looks lovely and I'm very pleased with it however, the rest of the house is dirty, dusty and full of carp so I feel an evening of sorting out coming on.

    Candy - did you have a nice hol

    Hello to all the oldies and welcome to any new people I've missed

    Have a nice afternoon/evening

    I've run out of motivation big time, all I'm managing to do is bung stuff in the washing machine, take it out and bung it in the Dryer, then fold it up and thats it!! Can't even be bothered to do some tea. So tired now.

    Frugal, take care ((hugs))

    I am shattered and finding it really hard to keep the house tidy :(. All I seem to do is tidy and I have lost my rhythm for getting things done. Just trying to tidy as I go along and nagging the others to tidy up too.

    Anyway I have kept on top of the laundry and the dishes so that is a positive :D
