Afternoon

So far this week I've done the kitchen/diner, living room hall and stairs and today the bedrooms. Got washing out today, it all froze first but then it had a good blow. Just got it back in and it still had to be draped round to finish off but it smells lovely.

Going to catch up now.

Car been hit - no note on windscreen. No hot water - thermostat broken - approximately £450 to fix these problems exc VAT. Happy February everyone.

Please wake up Ed.

emmb sorry your car failed it's MOT but maybe you can get a good price for it.
LW Glad the CAMRA meeting went well and you are now free
pigpen I think the things you have done count as flying. Best of luck for tomorrow, hoping all those appointment times actually work out right. I have often had to change departments when one is running late to catch a second or third appointment. Orthopaedics and orthodontics always ran on time. Not another dept in the hospital did in my experience. Of course you might not have a single hospital appt.

After a very late start I have done a little flying. I finished off cleaning the floor under the kitchen table. I started on Sunday so not too bad. It needs new coats of protector after I buy some on Friday, and someone else can do that:D

I went to allotment meeting last night and did not volunteer for anything. The new me is going to look after my family and myself first.

Would have liked to have got more done but DS has had a bit of a non-napping day so little time to fly. Just dinner to make now.

My list
Photos for hen do - all sorted, just need to post tomorrow
Send cq for birthday present
Claim car insurance cashback (after 4th feb)
Home insurance

Valli

got home earlier than usual (though later than I should have) as it was my PPA from 2 - but was in the staffroom at break so 1st aided - 7 of the 8 injured. Fortunately I knew all but one by name so I could fill in the book quickly...anyway came home with somebody's GUAG so made full use of it. I also had a PPA this morning (I was owed it) so my jobshare suggested I come home - everyone else works from home but when its mine there's usually a room free so I can work undisturbed.

LR - done - sofas leather wiped and then treated!
Litter tray - emptied; contents binned washed out; now drying off
washing (flung out optimistically this morning) in and ironed
pots - away

this evening I must empty out the other bins (black bin day tomorrow) and get another washload sorted
also got my handbag delivered from e bay - I paid £2 postage; she paid £5 to post so the slight delay which would have been reflected in the feedback/starts will be wiped out I think I still expect to have feedback left for me, first, as I paid immediately after auction end. It's very pretty and very purple - Diva would have loved it;) If I had paid full price for it it would have been my most expensive bag...

Hope Ed is waking up...
