    Part of the Furniture 10,000 Posts Combo Breaker Bake Off Boss!
    1. Call T-mobile
    2. Photograph ebay items to list and which go live tonight
    3. Answer ebay questions
    4. Book couriers
    5. Go spend a few hours with granddad, make sure mum goes out the house to have some time off
    6. Sort out back freezer, take some of the easy to cook boxed food over to granddad to restock his supplies.
    7. Put a load through the washer
    8. Fill in forms for an in-date driving licence
    9. Check bank accounts
    10. Package up ASOS return to be sent Monday.

    Weekends are always when I get less done as DH seems to require a lot of attention to get anything done himself.

    ETA: Case in point, he's been working on the garden this morning (great as it really is a wilderness!) but he asked me to sit out and talk to him while he did it. The fresh air was nice but that's 2 hours less to do my to do list. Worth it though as it really does look so much better already.

    :rotfl::rotfl:This is exactly like my OH, he is incapable of doing anything by himself. He starts DIY tasks and then I have to stand next to him passing/holding/chatting to him.......most of the time its actually easier and quicker to do it myself :p
