    I'm in again. Thankyou Dusty for last week and Kaz for this weeks list.

    I'm in big trouble as DS2 has discovered I gave away some of his star wars lego a year ago and he has just missed it. The boys' room is now the room of doom. I need to blitz it in time for Father Christmas' visit. I need to buy a shallow bookcase as DS2' books keep being buried on the deep ones. I had a quick tidy and he discovered some forgotten toys and announced that he likes tidying so I will involve him on the strike day.

    Went to see Arthur Christmas in the morning and enjoyed it.

    Lovely kitty JoJo

    Hugs, sticks and spoons xx

    noooooo

    not the cupboard under the stairs

    it's where my e bay stuff lives (until it's sold) and as I try not to list more than 50 items at a time it will be a while.

    (50 is as many as I think I can 'manage' to keep an eye on...and I have to relist some)

  • I am in this week. Thanks FCC for the lists, esp Kaz for this weeks list.
    My priority has to be my assignment this week, but I will need to fly inbetween. DH should be making a start on insulating the summerhouse on Wednesday (hopefully with DS's help, if he is off school :)).

    Today i have done the food shopping, walked the dog, done 2 loads of washing and some studying (up to 1500 words now - 2500 to go!)

    Hugs & spoons to those that need then, esp JoJo. Night night all x
  • I'm in - will be more the end of the week - beginning is a bit mad!

    Have a good week everyone,

    Moam
    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.
