    Hope you daughter will be OK Moggins.

    I am so tired tonight, my feet are killing me after work. Spent a couple of hours in the garden today putting some slate pieces over a border that refuses to grow much (the dog's not helping tramping over it). Looks better but it was hard work, our soil is pure clay.
  • Moggins: Thank you for thinking of us all and posting when you obviously have more important things to think about - hope your dd feels better soon. Don't worry about us we can can kick each other up the backside when you can't be here. :grouphug:

    I seriously need to join in with this as my place is an absolute tip just now and it's beginning to look daunting.

    My flat is tiny so if I just jump in I hope I will be able to catch up with you all by substituting things on Moggan's list that don't apply to me (like no stairs :D . I'll toddle off to read up what I'm supposed to do as I go along (like what is the 27 thingy :o )

    I think I've got the basics so here goes... any guidance offered will be gratefully accepted :o

  • morning all, hope everyone is ready to fly today!!!

    was thinking about out of date chicken in night!!! can't remember who posted but happened to me last year with m&s meat :eek: (wsa before lbm!!) i phoned them and they said it is legal to keep that goes out of date that day on shelf until 4pm full price!! i think that is pants and have nearly always remembered to check but much harder when someone doing your online shop - cos they area not going to be bothered - when you spend all that money and you throw it in bin is so frustrating :mad:

    well have already done dishwasher so off to have a shower and get dressed now catch you all later ;)

    hope cats and children had good nights and shell that dd slept again!

    had a horrid day time wise yesterday.
    No time what so ever. Luckily the masterbedroom was still very tidy.

    But hey, new day, new chances right!?

    To today's list:

    - girl's bedroom (DS is 16, he can do his own room) Tidy and hoover. Bed will get changed tomorrow.
    - toilet
    - kitchen swish and swipe
    - tidy up living room
    - hoover all the way around
    - washing machine/dryer on at least once
    - put clean washing away.

    That'll keep me busy till it's time to go to work! :rotfl:


    Moggins: I hope you daughter is alright and you had a peacefull night!

    I'm coming up on my PMS again, so really feel like just grumping and hiding in a corner, but I'll see if a good bout of flying will pull me through. I might even survive this month's pms attack without wanting to kill anyone!

    Tonight my DH and I are going out to an Irish music festival, and I'm SO looking forward to that!

    well lady's, coffee is done, time to get cracking!!

    Becca
