    Morning all, well my paint is all dry so i'll need to sort carpet and curtain pole today. Should be back in our room in a few days..:D

    juilejim good luck for today.
    LW Happy belated anniversary.

    Right i better go and sort the boys.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j

    Good luck juliejim

    Off to find lists. Not going to Aerobics - my legs are crying. Will do HHY with LW instead and stretch out a bit.

    DW emptied and loaded, DH packed lunch and dinner done. About to have tea and breakfast. Then I WILL find the hoover.

  • Morning! Minion deposited at bus stop on time, toast munched and coffee decluttered, cats are getting ready to crash out for the day and I'm debating whether to make a start on the kitchen or delay it further by having a second helping of breakfast :)
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Morning (again) I fell back to sleep!!!! So have done nothing yet, just made myself a coffee to wake up, have the dentist at 11.30, which is a pain as it is pretty much in the middle of my day, will try and get some bits done before then.

    Going to drink my coffee and anyone fancy a HHC at 09.30?

    missy I'll join you. I WILL HOOVER!

    However, I have decluttered a major frog so far (been there since last winter - clear the garden of all the pots that got cracked in the frost and snow, and rearrange the patio) Now I need to empty all this year's spent vegetables and weed and weed and weed. But that will have to wait as I haven't got any room in the brown bin.

    hi all

    well yesterday was a disaster as far as flying or paid work went.

    DD was off school sick and demanded my attention all day.

    Both kids in school today so will try again to get something done.

    I got no paid work done yesterday and am so behind... i need to clear the kitchen a bit and then get on with paid work.


    HHC 10am and then paid work until 3pm

    OK update from last night:

    Unpack! Done
    WM X 1 Done
    Put clean clothes away Well.....they made it to the bedroom, but are still waiting to be put away
    Change bedsheets Not yet.
    Wash dishes Not yet.
    Dinner Done
    Early night! Done - Well, it was earlier than the night before anyway! lol

    I also painted my toenails (a top priority! ;) ), and tidied some clutter from the sofa. And today I have requested my EHIC card from my Dutch insurer! Yes, it has only occurred to me today that I was now entitled to one from the Netherlands, rather than the UK! lol. Anyway, it was easy peasy online, and *apparantly* will be with me in a few days.

    HUGS to all who need them!

    I bought loads of crafting bits in the UK. I now need a crafting box to store them in.

    This weekend, I also need to go through my clothes and fling those that don't fit, or I never wear, and maybe put some summer clothes into storage now that autumn is on her way.

    So, tonight's list is as follows:

    WM x 1
    Put clean clothes away
    Dinner
    Dishes
    Change bed clothes
    Put 1 item on Ebay
    Clear away some cardboard (no, I don't know where it keeps coming from either!)
