  • Evening all. Today I've done 2 loads of washing, DW x3, made soup and lasagne and listed one table on ebay.
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x
  • I found these threads this morning - absolutely brilliant! I have made a list and stuck it to the fridge - off to a good start today I have

    Mopped kitchen floor
    Cleared out fridge
    Cleaned downstairs loo
    Wiped down kitchen cabinet fronts!!

    Didn't take very long and instead of feeling overwhelmed with what's not done I feel like I have accomplished something for once!

    Tomorrow it's the living room!

    well done all flyers - and VERY well done to the newbies - enjoy, and build on, the positive!celebrate.gifcelebrate.gifcelebrate.gifcelebrate.gif

    I just ordered another free book for the kindle. I have a cover for it now.
    I think, Hex, THAT could be the way forward...apart from anything else it's MUCH easier to read in bed because I don't need glasses, now :rotfl:
    thing is I'm rather addicted to the free books...especially as there are classics I haven't yet read.

    Skyehusky I haven't managed to do that much yet for so long and I've been here years lol so WeLL DoNE!!!

    Puppy been a monster this evening, know I should have took him to the beach to wear him out more. Going to do an extra puppy class on a Sunday next week I think which isn't far from the beach, if it's not lashing down I'll take him there afterwards. Being a malamute he's about 25kg now he must be so when he bounces about I know about it!

    Dinner was lovely, plenty of left overs but I'll strip them tomorrow. Got my BSL course starting in the morning which will have to be straight after dog walk so I need a shower tonight & to sort my things out for that and the meeting straight after as I'll have to pop back, change shoes, walk the dogs and go back out. I so haven't missed my dashabout life.

    Right final list - dishwasher empty, DW/TD on, left overs in fridge, shower, uniforms, stuff for course and meeting, collapse - in that order

    See you all on the next thread - thanks Dusty!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Ages ago DD1 went.. so I am room/cupboard shuffling.. it is starting to resemble a baby room for Squeak now :D

    there were 2 binbags, 6 stacking boxes and a bag of stuff.. Landing reclamation going well :D the girls room however has become number 1 dumping ground again though so it doesnt look like progress yet!

    I need to relocate a PC and desk next so babby bedding cupboard can go in and free up a mass of space on the landing

    While I've been waiting for the DDs to get home (which they just have) I've loaded the DW, scrubbed the cat litter trays,emptied the kitchen bin, made sure all school uniform is ready and cleaned my bedroom windows.
    I'm not going to change my bed as I didn't have time to make it this morning and now the cats have slept on it and left muddy paw prints on the sheet :cool: Also going to get the girls to put their washing away, I swear to God if they leave them on the bedroom floor for the kitten to pee on I'll be killing all 3 of them!! :mad:
    I've also sorted / repacked some stuff to go to the CS tomorrow. The girls now want to watch Wild at Heart but I'm not feeling like it so I'm going up and do more in my room then have a bath.
