    I am here in the land of VERY SLOW mobile broadband until we get connected on the 30th. Move in day was very stressful, we left our old house in a lovely condition left just after 12 and didn't get the keys to our new place (7 miles away) until 4.15, if it hadn't been for our solicitor we would have been homeless for the weekend. I had to go to work in the evening but DH and my mum sorted out the required bedrooms, living room and kitchen so it looked lovely when I came home. We have done what we need to live well at the mo so I am not going to bust a gut to get it all done and exhaust myself, that can wait until the Tattoo finishes at the weekend.

    I hope Hollyh had a good move and a bit less stressful x

    Thanks for the lists, I am going to start as I mean to go on seeing as we have a lovely house that is clean. I am glad it is the kitchen as it is a room that will not take much at the moment. Our dining room (never had one of those before) is a box heaven so will concentrate on the litchen then maybe do a box in there.

    Morning all

    After 2 weeks of deep cleaning and sorting my mission for this week is to keep on top of everything. I've already had a bit of a tidy around this morning.

    Off to clean the bathroom and have a shower first.

    I'm in this week. Thanks to all at FCC for everything u do

    Just waiting for DD1 to finish tidying her room then we're off to the Post Office to post a couple of e-beast parcels then I think we'll go on a foraging mission as we're on holiday next week and knowing my luck it'll be too late when we get home!

    As I said we're off on holiday on Saturday so it's a case of getting the house nice and organised so its not a dump when we get home and so that Friday is the usual frantic rush of packing and hunting for stuff!!

    Happy FLYing all x
