Tuesday and Wednesday done, except for the pajama drawer not fitting back in so is on the floor, and the duvet is drying on an armchair as it started raining whilst it was airing!!!

Will sort out pajama drawer before I go to work, now having a well-earned cup of tea after HM chicken soup (roast leftovers) with enough left for lunches until Friday

In HHC I fixed new toilet seat on, put up new shower curtain, put in new mats, bathroom is lovely (wish I could ban the males of the house from using it).

Bathroom finished (for now) I need to investigate garage (rod) for tile paint and DH is going to put new sealant on the bath at the weekend.

Freezer is now fixed. Back and foot is now hurting so I may sit on sofa and sort some small baskets

Okay I am off to clean the stove top and the kitchen sink (and to heat some soup through for lunch!)

Slightly recovering from cold today, so I've done the kitchen!! I'll run the vacuum round the ground floor in a minute, as otherwise, it's not too awful.

greenbee -I've had the same problem in the past. I gathered up all my courage, and went to speak to the neighbours - it was the garden that runs along the end of mine, so they weren't even next door! I smiled very nicely, and invited them to come over for tea in the garden, so they could see the problem - the leylandii hung over my garden by about ten foot (my garden is only 40ft, so you can see it was a biggish problem!) They popped over, took one look, and said, Oh I wouldn't like that at all!! We had to wait for the nesting birds to leave, then the conifers came down. I really didn't realise how much they were oppressing me until they'd actually gone - wow! I have sky!!

DS2 due back from Russia just after midnight - I've really missed him!

:hello:Hi to all my flylady friends!

Love and hugs, especially for lady-liberty, toots and lamewolf.

Lunch decluttered and kitchen tidied - not much else. DS1 finally put to work sorting his disgusting room and I'm looking for my get-up-and-go which has disappeared over lunch.

I'm going to put the last lot of towels out, as DS1 is likely to bring me more washing, get DS2 to do some homework and start a HHC in our bedroom.

Mostly have laundry type stuff left to do. The office is filled with laundry baskets that either need ironing or putting away so I will be tackling that next.

I am also gonna do a couple of WM cos I have been slacking this week and only done 1 this week so far but only have two left so it doesn't seem as urgent iyswim. gotta do the lunch dishes and then onwards we go.

I have moved my bedroom around and it looks a bit fresher already but i need to find a way of getting rid of all the paperwork i have in there. slowly slowly..

Good Afternoon, got more done than I thought I had the place is looking rather good if I do say so myself. Even managed to get dinner sorted. Just having a cuppa now then a bath ready for work tonight so all I will be getting down now is a tidy up of any mess the kids have made and a scoot round bathroom once I have had a bath.

Greenbee just a word of warning. You do have to declare any disputes when selling your house so don't let it get anywhere near to that. If they say no and then prospective neighbours ask about the situation it could get tricky but if you have never asked then there is no issue. Just a thought.

Right hoovering and then a cupppa
