Morning lovelies! :wave: just a quickie as off to work shortly

Thanks for last week's thread KazW :T and Thanks for this week's Jules :T

Well done your DD Jojo how proud you must be x

I've done stuff. Mainly moving furniture/books/assorted gibble around the dining room, got a new fridge freezer and the old chest freezer and underbench fridge are still in there (destined for the shed) can't move them alone, BUT I've moved an old rickety crapolla bookcase and it's contents.

Lily cat is sleeping on the landing as per, teenie and his mate are sleeping too, littley at school. Washing on airer, LR tidied.

Christmas plans are listed in my notebook and getting ticked off as and when, I added the card list this morning, oh and I've got a turkey (cheaper than chicken) casserole in the SC for tea- yum!

Laters gators xx

Toots :hello: lovely, if you're reading xx

I am £166 poorer for the micro/combo oven man coming out. This is not the end of it - he needs these parts to see if anything else is wrong. Sorry kids for Christmas this year you get a repaired microwave .

Washing machine has to be fixed this week as well :-(

I'm going to get an early lunch then run to watch DS3 in the cross country. DH is home late tonight so I do have a couple of thing to smile about :-)

DW unloaded. Kitchen tidyish.

I think I ought to keep looking and go back to the list later but have also washed up recycling stuff and reloaded WM and TD

Off to let cat in and feed her and me then shower to get ready for Physio then will start looking again.

Afternoon, I've done the kitchen. I've washed the new cutlery I bought ready for Christmas (because I've only got a drawerful of odds and ends) and put it back in the boxes ready to use. I tidied out the cupboards in the sideboard (took 2 minutes because I refuse to let clutter be put in there). One load of washing draped round indoors.
