Good lord woman, what time did you get up?!;)
I've just ventured downstairs..have been lying in bed on the internet on my phone for an hour. So far I've made a coffee and put a load of washing on:o
I might be feeling inspired to get my @rse in gear along with you:DI really need to sort out a new signature!0 -
Pixie I have a ds whose body clock will not go past 7am at weekends :cool: So, I was up and about quite early today and got cracking by about 7.30ish.
Time for another update, am definitely seeing progress now, although its quite tricky to see anything through the field of drying washing

Other than ds bedroom, the rest of the place is looking great
I stopped for a bath and then went to get some bits for lunch, and am now eating it. In an hour or so we're going for a walk along the beach as the suns out and it is quite nice out there today.
I may tackle his room later today, or I may leave it for another day and tackle the newly forming ironing mountain tonight instead :cool: Very pleased with what I've achieved so far today though. Free bet can be done in about 10 minutes, then the kitchen floor and that just leaves ds bedroom related stuff on the listMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000
