    Hall, stairs & landing done. Downstairs to do now. I'm scoffing some biscuits quickly and then i'll get back to it.
  • I work to a different systerm - Justmommies Home Organizer - just to be awkward! Thought I'd get less done today as I have DD home sick from school and a cake order to finish this morning, but I've managed to get my cakes done, get the bedlinen and some towels in to wash and deep clean the kitchen. Cup of tea methinks!

    I just got myself a cup of coffee, so I'll join you for a beverage break Lola, while I type an acceptance to another dog-sitting booking.

    Ted's got to cut his stay short, as his Mum's got a hospital appointment, but I now get Jessie from 3rd to 12th August, as well.:T
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Afternoon all

    Dusty
    , I hope your Mum heals quickly.

    Kitchen all done, also dusted living room and hallway and vacuumed right through downstairs and up the stairs.

    Been hokey-cokeying the washing but I think I'm winning.

    Remove something from this area and put it where it belongs.. is this not part of clearing the work surfaces?

    Not if it is on the floor, sofa, AGA and radiator like all the extra stuff in my kitchen drying from DS2's DofE expedition :p
    I will need to go with DS2 to shops as hes terrible to buy for hes 14 this year and sometimes only a 10 or 11 fits him depends what shops.

    I had this with my DS2 aswell. We found Matalan quite good and Top Man for doing smaller stuff

    I just found out the hard way that I can no longer lodge a mobile phone between my ear and my shoulder while I move the netbook off my lap.:( Ouch-ouch-ouchity-ouch. And a few rather ruder words besides.:cool:

    Ah neck pain is horrid x


    Thanks for all the healing wishes for Mum. I'm going over after school to see how she is getting on.

    I've hoovered and mopped the floors so far today and been to town for a mega food shop for me and Mum and to return/exchange some bits.

    Time for a cuppa now and as the school have postponed sports day - why it is at least dry today :( I shall do some more flying in a bit.

    Afternoon all :D

    Dusty - Thanks for the lists. Hope your mum is feeling better soon

    DD not gone to school today. She's currently asleep on the sofa so I'm not going to disturb her. They're not expecting her much, but we'll try to make it in as much as possible over the next week as its the last full week of term. I figured sleeping was slightly more important as she looked like Casper crossed with a panda this morning! Hopefully she'll feel better later on.

    This weeks activities:
    Mon : school disco 4-6 don't know if DD will be going or not
    Tue: Play for rest of school
    Wed : School play in the evening - DD in for 5.15pm

    Sun :

    Dailies:
    Wash up
    Make beds (Change DD's Tue, Thur, Sun)
    HH accounts (work)
    HH accounts (personal)
    Email
    Money

    Level One


    Clear and wipe the work tops
    Level Two
    Wipe small appliances (descale if necessary)

    [STRIKE] Clean a window or two[/STRIKE] Subbing with Wash the floor.

    Extras

    HHI
    - No ironing to do :D But will leave this here to do later in the week.

    I'm off to make some lunch and put tea on in the slowcooker. :)
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    DS is struggling to take down a baby tree (roots starting to grow under fence into neighbour's garden) - it is VERY funny

    I can see branches swaying around. Up and down. Up and down again. There is a frantic sawing noise..... he's using a bread knife. I questioned it and he looked VERY angry. I am going to have to go into another room, it's just too funny.
