Two curtain poles up, door curtain and landing curtains up. Need to find landing tie-backs... Outdoor cushions finally all out away in sitting room blanket chest. Tiny bit of pipe lagging located... Last bits of stair curtain pole painted, so next task is putting away summer clothes in the bedroom blanket chest now it is no longer full of curtains!

Morning everyone, count me in this week – although I won’t be doing as much as I normally do due to being told off for not resting when I should be. Not my fault I have a husband that doesn’t seem to see when things need doing..lol

Thank you to Dusty for last weeks thread, and thanks to Kaz for this weeks.

I’m going to have to start from Tuesdays list and combine Mondays one over the four days left as I wasn’t around much yesterday.

Mine knows no bounds either .... I bought a new loo seat as mine keeps sliding to one side (rather alarming!)

Glad it’s not just me that gets excited over buying new things for the house.. I bought a new washing up brush the other day, admittedly it was in pink and I couldn’t resist.. I also remember when I got my washing machine a few years ago I sat and watched it washing.. Only because my old one had a habit of going wrong and I was fascinated with the new one....

Greenbee you are supposed to be resting. I’ll do you a deal hon, if you rest up and not do too much then I will do the same which will probably please my DH and Dr.
OMG Poohbearyou really can’t survive through winter with just a woodburner.. For your sake I hope we don’t have a winter like last year, I don’t fancy you turning into icicles in your house. Is there anyway you can borrow a small heater from someone, at least this way you can move it around to where you happen to be in the house at any given time.
Well done on beating the diabetes Kazwookie, that is absolutely brilliant.

Why is it when you are waiting for something to be delivered it never arrives. I want my lovely pink Filofax so I can use it now… Decided as I couldn’t get my budget book from my normal supplier this year, that I would treat myself to a really nice Filofax and some budget sheets for this. As I have got into the routine of popping my receipts and spends down in the budget book the last three years it will be automatic to do it everyday now.

Hugs and love to everyone, especially LL, Tootsand LW.

And now a little reminder from me:

This IS resting Natty... If I was at work it would be a lot tougher.

All summer clothes sorted and most packed into the blanket chest with the sofa covers. Suits are still hanging up, and one linen shirt needs washing. Another one is going to be turned into rags. So I now have a pile of hangers on my bed that I need to find a home for, and space on top of the blanket chest to shift a few things from the study for sorting.

Need to think about what to have for lunch... It's not really a salad day, but I have lots that needs eating...

Afternoon all

I did extra work yesterday so I've just done the dailies this morning. I made some cakes though and managed a short walk before the rain came back. Wanted some fresh air and there's plenty out there!

Dinner cooking now.

Please let us know how Woody is doing, Dusty.

Waiting for new suite delivery, been to work this morning for 3.5 hrs and my back is killing me BOOOOOOO! teenie and his mate took the old settees outside, his uncle is having the big leather one :j got nephew school run in an hour, food delivery between 4 and 6, nephew pick up about then too, littley off school poorly and it's been manic trying to arrange childcare and delivery cover for whilst I'm out lol

Teenie did the kitchen and LR earlier on so it's all spick and span-ish, TD is on as is the DW and WM. Lily cat is staring at an unknown 'something' and looks ready to pounce *rolls eyes* rabbit is having the time of her life running about loose in the wind.

Been sorting/chucking/moving the last few days, garden looks like the municipal skip site :eek: lucky for me the council are gonna shift it all in Jan. Christmas preperations are well under way, I feel mega, MEGA organised this year :A mind you, I have given myself a few good talking's to when I've started stressing about it, it's only 1 day!

Erm, that's pretty much where were at at the moment, need to fold some laundry and try not to rip the landing carpet up when I go up with it (I'm itching!) Not long till the big move out and house renovation! WOOT!

My back's locked-up need to get off this didning chair and move about.
