Had a productive 45min HHC, decluttering loads of carp out of my bedroom and sorting some filing. Will hoover & dust my room later. First I need to go and wrap pressies for DD2s birthday tomorrow before she gets home from school.

Catch y'all later.... xx

Well I've nearly finished sorting the DR table out - it's a major hotspot and 1 of my frogs! I've also put the washing on the line so hopefully the rain will stay off.

Going to do another HHC 1.30 - 2 and then I need to drop DH and DS's prescriptions in and mip to Mr As before picking the kids and their friends up from school.

Stuff out for bin men, had a notice from council well we all did round here, they are changing the bins yet again, to include a food waste caddy thing, and not going to collect green waste such as grass cuttings etc unless you pay for that service!

Ooh, which local authority are you under, then? We've had a kitchen caddy for some time now (I use it to collect stuff to go in the compost bin;)) and we used to have to pay to get garden waste removed (we used to take it to the tip ourselves - bu88er paying extra!) but now have a green bin that gets collected every week as part of the service, which we're meant to put garden waste + non-compostable food waste in.
*Wonders if it's all going to be changed again*

Froddy - Hoppy Birdday; have a good one!:beer::bdaycake:
Some more frogs have been commenced, but one of them won't get finished today, as it requires an overnight soak.

Other than frogs, most of today's list is either already done at this point, or not needed, so I just need to put dusters round, and the bedroom will be all done.

sorted out another 2 boxes off stuff, so yet another frog crossed off, however am now up to 3, yes 3 boxes of electrical stuff for OH to sort out when he comes home from sea, and I WANT them sorted before baby is here otherwise they are getting chucked out and he will not be getting his new tv and bookcase system for his xbox :rotfl:

off to do another frog in the form of 2 more boxes to sort out in the spare room, then thats most of the spare room sorted apart from the dvds and 4 huge cardboard boxes of stuff that i just dont have a clue whats in them and wont be venturing in them till the rest of everything is sorted out.
