Morning, I'm in this week, thank you FCC
I faded towards the end of last week. I had DS1 off school with tonsilitis and was working a couple of mornings, which I don't usually do. Thankfully I could take him with me but it meant by the time Friday rolled around I was shattered and the house has disintegrated. Now DS2 has it too and I was up with him all night so think I'll be as much use as a chocolate fireguard today. Need to get dressed and pop to Tesco, finally bake the Christmas cake then will get on with list and a big LR S&S.

Do you have a "button" you click on on your mouse pad? You use that. Hold it down , swipe your pad with another finger, them "click" on it with the other button.
If any of that makes since0 -

I am just trying to warm up before I start.We don't have any heating oil and are attempting to survive the Winter with just the wood burner in the living room.
I did have a head start as I sold the shower screen which had been in the hall for weeks at the weekend and also got rid of the bureau from there too.
My own list for today
