  • Missy moo, cleaning the fridge AND the dishwasher AND climbing up to clean a blind are all quite time consuming tasks. Do make sure you aren't overdoing it in your enthusiasm.

    Perhaps just concentrate on level 1 & 2 in the morning? Then, if you haven't keeled over from exhaustion, do level 3 after a good lunch?


    Some of us here do have experience of going off on one and then getting the inevitable crash and burn later. :)
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Thanks jojo, I hear you, I guess I'm just trying to get as much done until my enthusiasm disappears, and at present I don't really have much else to do, being on maternity leave with OH away. My thoughts were if I can get all the big horrid jobs done this week and get everywhere shipshape, then next week it will be a whole lot easier, if that meks sense. But you are right, I'll see how much I can get done then if I get tired I will have a rest.:)

    Don't know why I am awake this stupid early, have been awake since 5, think it might be the wind hustling through the trees:(
  • Morning,

    Good luck juliejim

    HHI anyone?

    Morning All

    Thanks for the good luck vibes.

    I'm going to be out all day today so can't see me getting much done.

    Get petrol on the way to taking kids to school
    Go for interview
    Go to Mr Ts and Hanley
    Pick kids up from school
    I have a bit of time then for tea, etc
    Football 5-6 - leave about 4.30
    Beaver Leaders' meeting @ 8 - leave about 7.30

    I need to have some breakfast, make sure I've got everything I need for my observation and interview, sort the kids out, walk the dog and get ready to go.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Glad to hear the floor is done. It was beginning to sound like turning into a 'never-ending'.

    Good luck Juliejim
