    Evening all,

    Havent achieved much today apart from emptying and filling DW and getting through a couple of WM loads. I did clear all the ironing last night and have put it away so once again basket is empty - todays loads arent dry yet so dont count.

    Otherwise CBA I am afraid hoping for a more productive day tomorrow.

    All trees in the attic (OH helped me dismantle the bigger one, put it in the attic and put the stuff that I put into the attic into the eaves.....I do not go in there...spiders!!!!! or birds!!!.....there was one in the attic a while back and had to get a neighbour to come and get it out!!!!(he must have come from the eaves as the window up there is never opened...the catch is broke))
    Done the school run, went to the garage for diesel...money off OH,visited a friend whose Birthday I missed yesterday, home fed DD and hoovered and sorted through some dry clothes.

    House looks so bare when the trees come down....I still have a garlandy, wreathy thing on the banister, the nativity set a bag of baubles and a small bag of gift tage to go up.....may do them in the morning!!!

    Oh I dusted 2 of the bedrooms earlier too xx

    Hope you have all had a good day xx

    have defragged PC and removed the last programme I added (Mailwasher) since it seems to have impacted negatively on speed of PC.

    Change of plans for the evening. DD1 and I have packed the Christmas stuff back into the attic. DD1 has now fallen asleep on her bed :eek:
    I thought she seemed a little quiet so maybe she's coming down with something :(
    So obviously DD2 can't finish tidying the bedroom and I don't want to do mine and disturb her so it'll be finished off tomorrow in stead.

    Please remember the lists are only idea. You have been busy doing other stuff and that is fine.
    Thanks jj for the list. Haven't taken the decs down yet - there's always so much dust.

    I've still got all the living room to do, kids have doubled checked there are no chocolates or candy canes left on the tree.

    Cake cooking
    Dinner cooking
    WM emptied

    Just a little break and then I'll finish the washing up.
