    Morning All

    It's a busy day today! After days of being blessed having friends here there is some serious work to be done!

    Sagaris, don't feel bad going to the doctor. It's not right and people go to the GP for much less. It sounds like you have put up with it for a while. Hope you get sorted :)

    My own list is here:

    1. Shopping in Ely - Wilkinson and Iceland
    2. Tesco
    3. Ring vets to complain :mad:
    4. Wash all the bedding :eek:
    5. Remake all the beds :eek::eek:
    6. Put all the bin bags out or take to the tip

    PLUS:

    Thursday - Kitchen & Dining Room

    Basic Flying

    Sweep/hoover & mop floors
    Clear and wipe work surfaces
    Clear and wipe table
    Clean fridge out
    Wipe hob

    Frog List
    1. Go to the vet specialist to resubmit insurance claim
    2. Sort out a bag of the kids stuff that has been hanging around for ages
    Children
    To do at least 1 job of your choice
    Extras
    Wipe and water plants
    Empty all bins
    HH me time


    I think the HH me time may be in bed this evening at this rate :rotfl:.

    Have a good day everyone!

    Morning all. Have walked dogs, put rubbish and recycling out, 3rd load of washing in. About to water plants and clean hob before work.

    Right, hob done and it will stay clean at least till tomorrow as tonight is take away night. Have a few minutes so off to clean the table and chairs.

    Morning all

    I'm now fully a redhead (as opposed to a tiny bit grey ;)) and I have washing on the line.

    My shoulder is so painful.. I knew moving the huge boxes was a silly thing to do.. but needs must!

    Hoping to make some more progress on the landings today.. and boss the boys to take stuff to CS.

    I have 4 half filled binbags strewn throughout the house which I hope to fill and bin today.

    I need to ring about the recycling bins not being emptied yesterday like they should have been!

    I have 5 baskets of washing again so need to deal with that today too.. and do homework checks for Monday!

    1 parcel to post and DS3's prescription to pick up!

    Oh.. and we must go to tesco today or the cats will starve and DS1 will too..

  • Happy Birthday Msgnomey!

    This morning has been productful, with ensuring downstairs which is now looking presentable is kept that way.

    Hoover all downstairs - done
    Mop all downstairs - done
    Clean kitchen worktops - done

    Clear out DH's wardrobe and de-dust, sort clothes and neatly refill
    Post ebay stuff
    Bath (bad) no longer 'white' dog.
    if sun comes out, may substitute the dog bathing for some garden tidying.

    Right, off to start clearing wardrobe. Erk.
