I'm trying hard to shake of the lethargy and lackluster attitude to life but it's not working. I've had a look on Directgov for a new job and that has made me feel worse. DH must be worried about me as he's rung me at work twice already. He went into work late today so has tidied the kitchen up. It should make it easy to attempt todays list when I get home.
I have stripped and thoroughly hoovered our bed as I've worken up covered in itchy bites. Pillows are in the freezer to kill any mites. I must get some frontline for the cat - she was on our bed the other day and she never goes there usually - I'm sure the two are related.
I'll be going home soon so anyone for a HHC at 1pm?0 -
Hello Everyone, can I come back this week please? Did a good part of last week's list but just lurked.
Juliejim I hope your grandfather's funeral goes fine - sharing memories with the family will help a little.

Afternoon all
I've done the kitchen/diner and also vacuumed the living room, hallway and up the stairs. Washing out, but not doing much. At least it's not raining. I've sneaked out more rubbish while DH is at work, black bin day tomorrow
And I spent an hour tidying up in the garden.0 -
Vacuumed half of downstairs.. and halfway up the stairs.. i need a box to throw gibble in to give to the warts when they get in to put away.. their stuff is everywhere
Filling charity bags as well now as I just had one stuffed through the door.. I love the idea but rarely fill them as they are never collected!
Tea break and then OH is getting kicked as I have loads I need him to do.. not sure whether he should start with unblocking the loo or putting up blinds...... after hanging out more wet towels
I am away to muck out the boing.. binday tomorrow and I am taking advantage!
I WILL have this hovel resembling a house this week... in between behavioural analysis video"s, bank account opening, nail appts, osteopaths and whatever else is thrown into the mix... yaaaahh.. bring it on lolLB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Situation made doubly difficult by the current job being so perfect for you, of course. Would it be worth concentrating on tasks that are small and can be completed for a few days so you know you have accomplished something?
Well, I hope to get to do the kitchen tonight when I get back from work. And that the old shower has been disposed of. And the radiator is back on the bathroom wall.:D
