Morning all,
Been to WW and lost 1lb (think it might've been the blood donation yesterday - every little helps lol).
DH has taken himself to JobCentre and then onto Dartford on an errand. Good job as otherwise I would've spent money in the shops that I don't have

I'm joining in very late this week again. Not had a chance to catch up with the thread but I hope everyone is ok.
I'm extremely busy this week so just doing level one all week. Tbh, I hadn't done anything till this morning (just finished a good 2 hour session flying). Just cleaning toilets and changing bedding left. I better do it quickly before lunch so I can spend a good couple of hours studying this afternoon.
Hopefully things will go back to normal next week and I'll be able to do a bit more and post more often too (I'm adding catch up with thread to my to do list for this week).

Afternoon
I've done the bathroom and toilet this morning. One load of washing draped round indoors (the sun is making the kitchen lovely and warm) and a load of towels out on the line blowing well. Took me four attempts to get the bird bath clear of ice, kept having to put in hot water and bash away at it.
Come on Ed, we're waiting0 -
I've been doing some paid work past two days so playing catch up today.
What I don't manage to get done I'll roll over to tomorrow. Not so stressed as I used to be by housework, think its because the house doesn't look too bad even when I get behind with things now.
