Sorry for the late list ladies, just having a touch of the teenage meltdowns to deal with (I still miss the roll eyes smilie).
The things I was due to get done this evening I haven't managed still that just means even more to do tomorrow - all kids back in school by the afternoon - can't wait for an hour's peace. DH also away until next week from tomorrowThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Dusty - and juliejim, your input on this forum is really appreciated, im sure by everyone, on top of running your own home - yes i know the teenage meltdowns, i have a couple of teenagers myself. The lists have really helped me to get my place more organised. I don't always finish them, or deviate, but even when the place falls into disarray, it seems so much easier to put it all back together - dare i say, im enjoying cleaning. I even wait sometimes for the next days one, god what an anorak I just wanted to say thank you.0

Morning All
Well I didn't have 5 mins to myself yesterday but I'm hoping to have a couple of hours tonight to do some stuff although I've got some scouting stuff to do too. It's raining here so looks like I'll be getting wet walking the dog.
Have a good day all
Hugs

Morning all!
Chucking it down here and will be for most of the day I think - oh well, not as if we don't need it.
Governor's meeting tomorrow night so I'd best make sure I get as much done tonight as possible - been lazy with the ironing again, got to iron work clothes again this morning - don't know why I'm so bad about it! Must pull myself together tonight.
Have a good day everyone!:j Almost 2 stones gone! :j

Morning all, managed to get a good bit done last night including cleaning out the fridge. Plan today is to pay for the new sofa and do a MrA shop. Need to make a few phone calls as well, mainly to get the tank emptied.
DD now ready for school and just waiting on the taxi. When she goes i'll get the boys up.
Updated list...if it's not on the list it's done..

DD2 has scoffed 2 bowls of cereal. DS3 has just surfaced.
The front door lock is broken again. I'm sure it's only 12-18 months since we were fleeced by a locksmith. This is the 4th time in the six years we have lived here. How much does a new door cost? It's got to be better than forking out £200 for new locks every year:(0
