Max welcome back, how are you today

Very well thank you Dusty. Thanks for taking the controls

I've been to work and am now bracing myself for the trick or treaters. I think they have got a cheek knocking, but then I'm just a miserable old bat.

Declutter Mission

Sort through your tea towels, table clothes, napkins etc and get rid of any you don’t like or use. Check you can find the one you want for Christmas Day whilst you are at it.

Just off to do the declutter mission I do the tea towels fairly regularly, but I never look at the other stuff, so here I come!

Personal Challenges:starmod:
Monday Trick or Treat
Today I want you to get somebody else to help with the flying, the more the merrier. Some of you are doing far too much for your household on your own (not all I know there are lots of partners and children who do help) so today I want you to either trick them into helping you and/or treat them for doing so. Any treat will do, bake a cake, rub their feet, just say thank you. If there is nobody to help then I want you to spend 15 minutes doing a job you really don’t want to and then give yourself a nice treat.

i have sorted out a cupboard in the lounge full of stuff to file and sorted out recycling, filing and shreading piles. not an easy job when i just throw stuff in willy nilly! as a reward im going to chill out and watch a film tonight and ignore the ironing!:rotfl:

Preparing for Winter Challenges:snow_grin

Monday the clock have gone back summer is officially over
I know it is sad that summer is gone but we don’t want to keep tripping over flip flops on the kitchen floor to remind us of that. Today gather up all summer footwear, hats and lightweight jackets. Get rid of any that won’t be needed next year. Put the rest away checking that they are clean and shoes are washed, polished and reheeled if necessary – you will thank me for this when we get our first warm day next spring. Replace with gloves, scarves, woolly hats, boots and winter coasts. Check they fit and everybody is kitted out for the cold days which will be here soon.

done done and done!

Have just got back and need to get ready for Slimming World - only started last week but finding it a struggle with everything else going on. Also had to make several phone calls as found out Mum has been admitted again to hospital as she is unable to stop vomiting and is now bringing up blood. Sooo frustrated that unable to drive down there until weekend.

Right off to shower and then print off food diary. When I get back I will start in the kitchen. Brought back another 6 bags and garden hose from old house.
