OH has a job! :j :j :j Oooooh it's all go today, haven't had my results yet (still...) but with all this good news I've got to have done well, right?

Sleeping bag in the washing machine (which is SO complicated that I had to look up the manual online, at which point it became apparent that it's a washer drier. So THAT's why it's so complicated...)

Noisy !!!!!! has moved in upstairs. What is it with people's total inability to walk without stomping? actually I think it may be the cleaner, in which case they haven't even moved in yet and I have all THAT joy to come yet. Hrmph.

Can someone please explain what 60 in 60 means. I've had a look through the first 2 posts and didn't see anything, though I could just be being an idiot...? Anyway, I'm intrigued so please do enlighten me

Maybe it means put away 60 things in 60 mins... or throw 60 things in 60 secs... I'm a bit confused myself, hopefully someone will tell us soon

I count a 60 in 60 as to put away 60 things in 1 hr, i might have it complelty wrong though

have managed to do my binbag dance and also manged to put the pressure washer in the shed and have done an online shop order for tomorrow.

JillD - if DS has Aspergers, a big social do could be literally painful for him (as I am sure you know only too well)
Anyway, I thought you said you were busy that day! :rotfl:
I hope you feel happier soon

I don't know what 60 in 60 is either but I hadn't got that far!

Some washing in, some out & some in TD (like the weather, I can't make my mind up!)

Need to make a phone call now (to finish off a frog )

put away or bin or rehome or give away 60 items in 60 minutes.
