    Glorious blue sky day here.

    Just drying out the condensation!

    So far I've done DW, WM, washing up, printed out ASDA coupon from price guarantee.

    List for this weekend:

    Return library books
    small food shop (10% waitrose card sent to DH which lasts until 4.11 will be very handy)
    check credit card statements
    List ebay items
    sort second half of the loft (after DH has finished the insulation)
    Finish hand mending
    Do machine meding
    polish kids school shoes
    try school tops on DS2&3
    cover pond to protect from falling leaves
    sort out handles for new windows
    HH sorting and replying to emails
    Bit of governor paperwork

    Best get to it I think!

    Morning all,

    :bdaycake: Happy Birthday Toots. :bdaycake:

    I'm back to filling the wardrobes, i will have both bedrooms finished today. The rest of the house just needs a quick tidy and hoovered.

    I'm over the moon with everything i've got done this week, next week is starting to fill up already but i should be able to keep the house tidy now. Still need to take into the attic yet. :eek:

    Right cuppa then i'll get dressed and make a start..
    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

    Hi all, still off work with a energy sucking lurg but yesterday evening finally managed to make some headway with the [STRIKE]dumping[/STRIKE] dining room.

    So we have bagged up two binbags of videos we don't watch and probably never will as we don't have a video player any more and I'm awaiting the return of my hubby so he can sort through. I'm being ruthless.

    Myself and DD2 did some furniture rearranging, meaning I directed and she shifted.:D

    Ditched half my bookcase, some in the bin, old brochures and mags and some for the charity shop.

    Found about 50 plus pictures in frames so will put them up later to hide the badly decorated walls.

    So now the dining room looks 3 times bigger, lighter and you can get to the table.

    Now I have to get ebay listing as my ebay pile needs to be decreased too.

    Hope everyone has a productive day.

    Happy Birthday toots ... And don't go eating all that cake at once!

    Second day of condensation for me too Dusty. I need to decide whether to leave the dehumidifier and/or heating on while I'm away this week.

    Don't have much energy today, but have lots to do - the spare room, landing and utility room have to be cleared before I go (spare room and landing because the plasterer will be coming when I get back, utility room because the floor is being levelled while I'm away which involves taking the WM, TD, DW and sink unit out and putting them back in. I'm pleased I'm getting so much done but it's hard work! Oh... And I need to pack. Anyone know what it's going to be like in Dublin next week?
