Declutter mission:

Hotspots or boxes of stuff. I’m sure we all have at least one. Actually I wonder who has the most! Sort at least one of them, completely, properly not half heartedly. Ohhh this'll be the jumpers

[STRIKE]Friday Variety is the spice of Life
Bored of cooking the same meals all the time? Dig out a cookery book or search on line and plan to cook something new this weekend. It can be a dinner, cake or even breakfast – give your taste buds a treat.[/STRIKE]
I batch cooked yesterday for tonight. But it is a new thing So perhaps this is done Although adventurous it's not :rotfl:

[STRIKE]Friday Bedtime
Time to change the duvet for a higher tog; test the electric blanket; check the hot water bottles for leaks and get the flannelette sheets out. If possible wash light weight duvets before storing for winter – stored in pillow cases they can be left on the bed as extra cushions if you lack space or placed flat underneath the mattress for added warmth.[/STRIKE]
Done this last week It was getting chilly and I was averse to putting the heating on

On top of all this I must make a B'day card for big sis

Thursday Car Prep
Get your car ready for winter so that if you should get caught in the snow or break down you are prepared. Here is a great guide for what you could do... We have it all just need to shunt it into the car
Freezer was done last week when I got the new fridge ....
Friday Bedtime
Time to change the duvet for a higher tog; . No it isnt! I only have the sheet on most nights!! and I dont have any of the others to do. Duvet etc was washed last week.. I do need to wash the duvet from the sofabed before our next visitor though so Ill do that one instead.

why do I get so het up about xmas every year? I'm already stressing needlessly, even if I don't buy anything else everyone's got something even if it's only a stocking filler, it aint that important in the scheme of things is it, I need a slap and a good talking to.

I am the same, difference is I haven't even bought a little something for everybody yet.

Surely with your brood somebody would eat something new?

My something new is going to be mulled cider rather than wine when friends come around on Sunday :rotfl:

Nixie - I've missed you from my star chart - sorry - how many of each do I owe you?

Morning all

Very wet here and I'm feeling very bleurgh, it's been a long week so rather than go shopping like I intended I am going to do as much as I can in the family room.

DS3 running in a cross country later, I so hope it has stopped raining by then.

Morning all,

I'm waiting in for the gas man. hen when he has been I need to go food shopping.

So far I have done the kitchen, utility, started tidying our bedroom but lost the will to live, so am now going to do our bathroom.
The shower curtain smells so needs a wash.
I will get back to Dustys lists next week.

Dustykitten

Quick trip to amazon and 2 more presents winging there way here, that's cheered me up off to do a quick tidy around and then to tackle the family room.

weather horribel here - rainy and miserable - it loks like it will be wet play at work ( shudders.....)

Washing sorted, washing up done and all kids breakfasted. DS is up - he worked until 10 last night and will be back in again for 11 today.

Ironing backlog well on the way to being sorted!

I have spent this morning sub,itting a competition entry. Mark Billingham the author started a story and entrants had 1200 words to finish it! I feel as if I have accomplished something! If anyone is vaguely interested in reading my effort send me a PM and I'll send you the address of the site - there are plenty of entries to have a look and vote for!

Off to put some washing in the drier in the garage..
