    Have managed to push a trolley around Mr Ms and buy a bit - holding off from 'stocking up' anyway ;) though I do need to. Hadn't really got the energy tbh

    Have done some washing so need to get that in and mopped kitchen floor and bathroom floor, just having a little rest;)

    Thank you Honey Bear
  • Good afternoon :D

    I have managed to put the washing on, which is now in the TD, and go shopping. Why does it take so long?! I also got petrol. Kids put the shopping away (only trashed 1 yoghurt!) and walked the dog.

    Dinner is on, and I am going for a soak in the bath while it is bubbling.

    Tonights plan is study :( I have chocolate & some Hagan Daaz to soften the blow :p

    Valli - I hope you are feeling better now. Take it easy :)

    Hugs & spoons to those that need them

    Fridge, freezer and cupboard inventories done. I can probably feed myself for the next year without going shopping :o

    Sofa covers washed and dried and folded ready for sending to be ironed. Loo blind washed (cool wash as I wasn't sure whether it would run), dried and ready for ironing.

    DB thinks SIL will go into labour tonight, so I need to get organised after supper and pack a bag.

    Plasterer didn't come, so I hope he turns up tomorrow... We need to have a chat about whether he's going to be able to skim the ceilings and how long it will take... I am running out of places to put stuff, and the weekend was going to be the opportunity to move stuff from one room to the other. Not sure how I'll get that done now :(

    I've decided that I'll get the cleaner to do windows and empty and clean bookcases in the sitting room and loo, as those will be about the only accessible rooms when she's here. If the spare room ceiling has been done and the room is empty we might do that ready to move stuff in...

  • We went to the pub :)

    She now wants to go every weekend!
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    I am failing at keeping up with the thread once again...but on the plus side I have done lots of flying & eating frogs this week so I am doing something productive at least!

    What I've achieved:-

    • :j RoD2 is TIDY AND CLEAN :j This was quite a task...but it is organised for the first time since moving in over a year ago! Everything has been wiped over, polished, hoovered etc & we can once again make use of the dining table :D Now there is only one RoD to sort through, & a few hotspots in other rooms, very happy about this!
    • Fence has been painted - Another biggie, will need to do a second coat in a few [STRIKE]days[/STRIKE] months.....:o but at least one coat is on.
    • S&S kitchen
    • Binbag dance
    • Decluttered the study desk (although it is starting to build up again already, grr)
    • Decrumbed the toaster
    • Ordered free sample of shower screen seal to see if it will fit
    • Caught up with some phone calls etc
    & of course todailies.

    Bring on next week :D
    :idea:Debt at July 2012: £12,862.57 :eek:
    :dance:Current Debt: £0 :j
    100% paid off!
    :think: Savings Goal for November 2016: £5000 :cool:
