    hey ladies, hope everyone is doing well.
    3.15pm and i've done nothing except shower, dress and go to the dentist. oh, i also put the wheelie bin out to be collected, but haven't even dragged it back in yet :(
    can't believe the time it takes me to get to the dentist. left my house at 9.30am, not back until 3pm. diary is packed tomorrow with work and opticians and kids club so must do something this afternoon. a bit of ironing, and a clean up of the kitchen at minimum. ;) on the bright side, nipped into tesco on my way home and picked up a half price beanie hello kitty for DD, now hidden away for xmas :T

    Hello you lovely ladies, such a very long time no see - I bet you can't remember me! So many new faces :D

    Well, I really could do with jumping back on board if you'll have me.... :o
    Since returning to work I have let things slip more than just a bit and really want to pick up again! I blitzed the kids rooms at the weekend - so many bin bags and charity bags its untrue!

    So..here it is then, list so far (updated as I've already been working on it this week). I bought a new mop today and introduced the flooring to it....I'm sure i heard it shriek at getting damp but needs must!

    Monday - Kitchen and dining room
    Level One - done

    Level Two - done
    Level Three
    Degunge the fridge!


    Tuesday ~ Master bedroom and Landing
    Level One
    Mattress vacuumed turned vacuumed other side and redress bed
    Level Two
    Deal with the floordrobe
    Wipe all the doors and frames in these areas
    Level Three


    Wednesday - Living area, hallway, stairs!!
    Level One - done

    Level Two
    Clean the sofas
    Level Three
    Declutter the inside of a cupboard or drawer!

    No extra's and I'm terrified of frogs!

    woo another thing to cross off my list :)

    carpet has been bought for spare room and babys room, £400 for both rooms from carpet right. now i dont know if we got a good deal on the carpet or what as ive never had to buy carpet before, but for carpet, underlay and fitting for £401 i should be happy with that if it lasts 3/4 years right? or should it be lasting longer just so i know roughly when to expect to replace it.

    going to do some list work in our bedroom as OH is playing COD and annoying me with it :p

    I tried carpet right for our room and it was gonna cost £140, tried a place local and it was £90. Both where good carpet but i would suggest tring a few local independant place. HTH

    Right i've done nothing since except play taxi for hubby. Plan is to get all homeworks done, cook dinner, bath DD, find satnav, pick clothes for tomorrow and hopefully make a start on the hedges tonight. :D
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j

    I have tidied the freezer and written the contents on a magnetic whiteboard. Could be an interesting month foodwise.

    I also hoovered the accessible bits of downstairs. Need to tidy and then do it again though.
