    Afternoon

    I've done the kitchen/diner except I've still got the sink full of bleachy water to clean out later. Not enough washing for a load today. I've done some ironing:eek: - not very often I write that.

OH finishes the end of next week and I am useless at cleaning when he is off. We will be doing a surface clean the following week before my mum arrives for the wedding. I can't believe where the time has gone, I get married in 19 days!

  • Thankyou for all the lovely welcomes :D
    Well done to everyone who's already ploughing through their lists!
    I'm taking a while to get going today after a rubbish night's sleep but I've made a start on the schedule and got the washing-up and other little jobs out the way.
    I plan to have completed at least level one by the end of the day :)

    Oh dear....I quite like cleaning my kitchen bin :o but I must admit I give the lid a wipe every day and there is occasionally a teeny wet patch at the bottom when I change the bag (which I wipe up as I find it) so takes about 30 secs to give it a really good spray and wipe out. I used to do my bin by filling with boiling water and bleach but after a few children reportedly died falling head first into a full bin I gave up on that as mine were small at the time and it frightened the crap out of me!
  • Glad you got an appointment. I have had bruxism since DS1 was a baby on and off. The dentist can make you a guard to wear at night to protect your teeth and relieve the pressure. With me the tooth which was hurting only met the lower tooth on one corner so all the pressure was being pushed through it. Good luck

    Frog eaten
    An hour in the garden done (eating my frog made me do all the garden jobs I have been putting off).

    Hairdresser due in a minute so I'll put the kettle on. Once she has gone I'll hoover and mop the floors.

    Turns out it's gum trouble. Been put on ABs too (not sure why).

    There is a particular tooth that hurts but it's one that's in a particularly bad condition. Might see if I can persuade my dentist at uni to just pull it :o

    Meanwhile, I'm so tired I could cry, so I'm going to try to sleep. Not going to get any flying done today I don't think. :o
