  • Morning folks :)

    I'm in :) Thanks for the thread!! :D
    Might have to do tomorrow's list today as well - I'm helping out with Riding for the Disabled tomorrow. However if you dont see me for the rest of the day the spare room will have eaten me!!!!

    Bathroom, rightio. Must remove all the kayaking bits then. Or at least tidy them, they're still dripping :eek:

    The big list:
    Check over store cupboard for food, add basic food stuffs if needed - Did go through the entire kitchen last week. Need to do a shop today though.[STRIKE]
    Do a meal plan for the next week, using up freezer / cupboard stock[/STRIKE] Done for the month
    [STRIKE]
    Mobility aids, such as wheelchairs, motorised scooters, walking sticks, check wheels / tyres are in good repair, battery of machine charged up, connection leads in good order, walking stick have a decent gripper on the bottom of them, if not get it sorted now, before the slippery weather arrives.
    [/STRIKE] N/A
    Do 3 items off your toots list (items 3, 5, 10) ... does that mean I have to write one? :rotfl:
    Do 2 items off your frog list (items 6, 9)
    Garden put away summer toys / games / furniture
    [STRIKE]
    Check shed is tidy, oil hinges / lock, where is the key to the lock[/STRIKE] No shed[STRIKE]
    Plant any spring flowering bulbs[/STRIKE] front garden all planted up. Mostly winter pansys tho, no bulbs yet.
    Make 20 min for a home made spa / face mask / you time... the toes are shouting at me. Need a new colour :)
    [STRIKE]
    Drag out everything from under the bed storage unit or similar, sort out, rehome / freecycle anything you have not used for a while / don’t need.[/STRIKE] Did this Friday :)
    Make those appointments you have been putting off, ie doctors / dentist / hair / vets / bank.
    [STRIKE]
    Check garage door closes, where is the key to the garage.[/STRIKE] in constant use.. the freezers out there :rotfl:
    [STRIKE]
    Make sure all bikes have brakes / lights / bells that work [/STRIKE] not using my bike in the dark. Muddy tracks, tree roots, drop offs and lack of light dont go well together, even with led lights.
    Clean out all dog / cat / other animals, toys / grooming brushes / check over leads / collars
    Check all smoke alarms work
    Add 5 items to this list of your own, that are achievable this week.
