    Evening!


    Please note :j tax return done!!! :j

    Woooooooooooooooo! :T

    Eveie - well done on the lightbulb change :T. I'm the same as you when it comes to lightbulbs - always feels like a major thing when i've done one!

    Going to go and find me a listy and post it even though i did spectacularly badly yesterday :D xx


    My list:

    Oh! I lied, I did do most of yesterday's list. This is what's left:

    Kitchen and Dining Room
    Wipe on top of high up cupboards if safe to do so

    Clean the window ledge
    Dust any surfaces which need it
    Pair up socks etc

    Tuesday Study and/or Living room
    hoover or mop
    Dust any pictures
    Do a 5 minute job that's been on your list for ages
    S&S the toilets and sinks

    That's doable but I've got an attack of CBA! However, i do have extra time on my hands because couldn't go to hospice as DS 'knocked himself out' when he got to school and was sent home. I use the words with care as it was another child who said he'd been unconscious and that child is prone to exaggeration. However, he does have a lovely lump on his head so he's probably best off at home!

    Meeting with the EWO accomplished. She was about 12. It really was a box ticking exercise. Such a waste of time.

    The cat is glaring at me from outside. The little minx tiddled on the bathroom mat yesterday so she's not coming in until she has learned her lesson.

    Well done on your HHC mumof2. Skype is a wonderful thing!

    I'm going to do a HHC now. I had hoped to go out walking this afternoon but the rain isn't letting up.
