Greenbee I am just getting better about not keeping things I wouldn't read again!

We got some clear varnish/wax yesterday at the tool shop which looks just lovely on the oak for my kitchen :j. I hate dark oak and disliked everything we had tried so far so this is great.

If I send you all the stuff I wouldn't read again (once I have some parcel tape) you can then pass it on when you're done with it.

Glad you found something that will work on the wood. I hate the fact that it's so hard to find natural polish or varnish. There seems to be an obsession with adding colour to wood.

Bl** dy great fly is driving me nuts... I think the warm weather is waking them up.

I am partly unpacked, and have done two loads of laundry. One is dryer, the other is in the TD or on the airer in the utility room.

Following Jue's instructions I will do the hall and utility room tomorrow in between working and see how far I get. I'll also try to remember to take some stuff up to the charity bank when I go for my blood test.

It has been months since I have been on this but I am back. I have nearly caught up with my studies after my lovely holiday in the sunshine so aside from doing the Monday and Tuesday Levels 1 - 3 I will also be doing my own FROGGIE thing by not only writing as much as I can but catching up with the last week of study. Simple - just not going to have time for TV at all this week!

Only day I will struggle with is Thursday - hubby and I are off to London to the Winter Wonderland so probably going to struggle with even a level 1 depending on what that is! hehehe

YIPPEE - let the clean house commence!:D:D:rotfl:

OK, I'm going to join you again this week. I managed to follow the list last week up to Friday, then I had to do a load of moving and shifting as I am going to paint the living room and dining room over the next week or two.

As I'm going to be extra busy doing decorating as well as housework, I will be posting my update at the end of each day.
