Morning all,

The week just ran away with me. I seemed to lurch from one thing to another creating more mess along the way.
I am on a mission today, and have so far done quite a lot.

Welcome back Penpen, and don't go away LW.
happy anniversary to cat and Nixie.

happy Sunday to everyone else.

Piggers I hope you haven't gone bananas on your own.

Catch you all later

ETA - does anyone buy tights online? Can they recommend a site?

What a morning so far, OH away to a shoot so no car for me. WM decided it wouldn't empty so cue bucket and loads of water once i was able to get the filter out. Problem was that DD's school cardigan was stuck in the machine. It's been emptied now and the only things i found in the filter was a lolly pop stick and some wet fluff, i'm hoping thats what has caused it. I have it running on the hottest wash now and hopefully it will drain then i'll rewash DD's cardigan.....:mad:

Kids been to sunday school and now playing. Suppose i should go give the utility room...

Am soooo tired today - was up late chatting to my friend about my move - shes sorry that Im leaving etc so it was quite difficult. Anyway, it was late when I got home and LO was up at the crack of dawn

Need to get on with decluttering and cleaning today.

My sister is coming round tonight after work for tea and to help with the clearing so want to get a good start before then - dont want to leave it all to her....

Have put away some laundry, made breakfast, tidied and wiped the kitchen - and thats about it really!! Must get on!!

Yawn..... think ill have another cuppa first

Good morning all, hope all are well.

Have packed and repacked so that everything fits in my suitcase... Problem is I think it will be over the weight limit for hand luggage I'll have to hope that OH is under and that they let us weigh our stuff together. Otherwise it'll have to go in the hold which is a pain (and would have meant I could pack more actually, if they make me put it in the hold I will repack at the airport to make things more accessible.

Spare room is nearly clear, as are landing and bathroom window sills. Bedroom curtains will need to come down in the morning and be packed away, bed stripped and covered with the spare room under blanket to sae it from the worst of the dust.

Clothes decluttering has been pretty ruthless (for the second time this year) and its clear that two people will not be able to keep all tier clothes in one chest of drawers, a single wardrobe, bedside table and tallboy. Especially not considering the number of suits etc. So I think the study and spare room revamp needs to include storage for work clothes. Or separate storage for OH's stuff if he ever moves enough stuff in to merit it...

Oh well....lost by one point!!! apparantley get a bonus losing point though?!?!?! So there is still hope.

Lots of ironing done. Going to Mum's for dinner and then back here to get on with the rest!!

Have a good day all, catch you laters xx

Lost cup found...hubby's fav cup...was missing now found inside a pan!

Rubbish brought down from upstairs.
Ebay pile prepared for photographing.
Hubby doing something with wires in the bathroom.

On a side note, had a quiet moments reflection on the events that happened 10 years ago today. I remember where I was and what I was doing and the horror and disbelief as the news unfolded.....

Jojo she sounds incredibly like my daughter who, at a much younger age insisted I teach her how to cook the stuff she liked - in case I died...

:rotfl::rotfl:

Still chuckling at this. My daughter is similar in temperament :eek: You have never seen such disappointment on a girl's face when she found out I had no life insurance

But along with jojo's, I am glad there are determined young women out there who won't take any cr*p
