Morning ladies :wave: Bright , breezy and a tad chilly here today. Have 2 lines of washing happily blowing in the wind. So no tumble drier for today. Yesterday it rained , and rained and rained till about half 8. Woofer doesn't like the rain so he was a !!!!!! to get out for a wee.
Went in the boys bedroom this am to take some clean washing in and saw a bit of wallpaper coming away so temptation got the better of me and I tore it off. So now have a stripped wall:eek::eek:. Have just come down for a break and quick coffee.
Tea tonight will be a quick ham, egg and actifry chips.
Hugs for everyone.:)

Morning all! Hope you all had a lovely weekend. Hugs to those who need them.
A busy weekend. Had one of my use-every-pan-and-utensil-in-the-kitchen cooking sessions, Tried the frugal mince recipe and made 2 cottage pies (each feeding two), 2 lasagnes (each feeding two), 4 portions of chilli for two and a huge pan of bolognaise as I had friends coming round last night for tea and I'm sure they starve themselves before they get to mine, they have HUGE appetities. Then played freezer-tetris to fit it all in the freezer.
Today's free exercise is a lunchtime walk as the sun is shining.
Lunch is leftover spag bol (yes, there were actually leftovers for a change)
Tea is hmmm.... something out of the freezer.
Have a good day all xxx0 -

Not very excting here at Chez Bitsy, more building work (but end is in sight) and puppy watching interspersed with cleaning. Might attempt some baking depending on what workmen are doing (internal french doors to be fitted at some point which is in kitchen).
OS.....erm waiting for my new BM as other one died a death. Not a lot of OS oops
Hugs and spoons all round. Have a good day OS or not.
We've just had the chap in to give the boiler it's annual service, and that was enough to put me all at sixes and sevens!:eek::D
HM quiche for dins though - which Mr LW is just now putting onto plates, so I'd better go and find the eating irons!:rotfl: (That's knives and forks, btw).;)If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -

Afternoon all,
Well 1st day back after a hectic week moving house and cleaning old/new houses to within an inch of their lives!
Most things packed away so struggling to do much OS things at the moment but will get there! WM will be on tonight and washing will either be dried on clothes horse again or if I can persuade hubby to put washing line up outside it will be outside if not raining tomorrow
Trying to sort our limescaley taps at the min. Will be soaking a paper towel with lemon juice and leaving on the taps overnight to see if that helps - any further hints greatfully received!
Now that i've got a shower cubicle instead of a bath I shall be trying the vinegar/water spray after each shower method to see if my door keeps shiny?!
Weather is lovely but chilly in Staffs, hope its nice where you all are
