  • Dogbot has been lying on our bed all morning and didnt even move when I was rustling paper in the kitchen, so I think I'll keep an eye on him today as it just isnt like him to be so still at all.

    I have now been showered and Im even dressed as I have to visit the Dr's later today. As well as cleaning myself I have S&S the bathroom and put the hoover over the LR's as well as done a quick round with a binbag to get rid of all the gibble that appears over the weekend. I was sitting down to watch Love thy Neighbour on 4od but having no luck as my internet is playing up something rotten. Oh well that mean I will have to find something else to do with my time.

    The kitchen is done, apart from the fridge and cleaning out a cupboard, I'm not sure I'll get to the cupboard. The last load of washing is in and I've sorted an put away some that was hanging around from the weekend. I'm going to try to clear the worktop in the utility room which has become a bit of a dumping ground. I also need to walk the dog.

    2. cleaned the bathroom sink
    3. unpacked the laundry from yesterday and put it away
    4. got the stuff for re-cycling down from the bedroom and into the bag ready to go out tomorrow night
    5. de-cluttered breakfast :D
    6. sorted through a bag and thrown out the out of date stuff
    I plan to spend the rest of the day clearing the major hotspots in the lounge aka the sofa, my desk and the speaker top next to me :o:rotfl:

    I am having an hour off. Making lunch, if you can call that a break. Was going to peg the washing out, but the rain has started again :(
