afternoon all :hello:
decluttered a bit and cleaned paintwork at lunch time.

Mrs C i think the quiet at work was down to me not wanting to ask the question, but, it looks like from the end next month I will have more time for flying and being MSE OS. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted

hugs to Vanilla and anyone else in need. Healing vibes coming to those in need as well.

Absolutely right.... it took me a while to get my head around putting "not needed" if it really doesn't need to be done.:D
Also, it amazed me to realise just how much of it my lovely husband does, such as the outsides of the doors and windows, and all the hoovering and ironing. I think it makes a heck of a difference if you can get the other occupants of the house on board - not always easy though, I know.:o I'm lucky - Mr LW lived alone for many years so he had to learn to do housework as he didn't want to live in a pigsty.:D

He's on late shift today, and I know he has a couple of changes to apply after 18:00, so don't know quite when he'll be in. But we're prepared - quiche for dins, just chuck it on the plates with a bit of salad. Seemples!:rotfl:
