Clean fridge
Clean oven

List CDs on music magpie - copy songs I want onto Ipod

Morning all, hope everyone is ok, if not then feel free to help yourself to hugs, spoons etc.
thanks piggers & toots for the thread.

I love the lists, they really are making a difference.
Yesterday DH informed me that his aunt was coming to visit us on her way to stay with a friend, so I had a mad dash round and had the house and garden presentable in less than an hour. This is a real incentive to keep on top of the flying, and maybe one day I will be ok with people just turning up unanounced.

Goodintentions

Watching the news & hoping everything is ok with Jo Jo
