Hello, hope everyone's day has been ok. Well done LW and hope things improve.

Thursday - Bathroom, cloakroom, stairs and hallway
Clean bath, shower, toilet - done
Clean the sink including behind the pedestal - done
Wipe splashback - done
Hoover and mop floors - bathroom done, landing & stairs brushed
Clean pet bedding - all four washed and dry, still in the garden though
Delete or reply to some emails - already got paperwork up to date
Sort understairs/coat cupboard - its here on the list but I don't think it will happen. There are two and both are cupboards of doom.

I am thinking that the cupboards of doom may be a weekend job as I'm definitely on my own for one day, maybe both of them.

About to tease the brain again with a puzzle. I will wait for it to cool down before walking the dogs, watering the garden and spending 10 mins in the gym.

oh my _pale_ think the bug has found the exit....maybe tis allergic to cheese n onion :rotfl:glad it's leaving the premises, and am sending Mr LW lots of healing vibes from our smallest room to yours LW

Awww LW mate have a (((hug))) and a HUGE WELL DONE for doing what had to be done in a time of need :T Look after yourself and Mr LW and we'll all be sending healing vibrations/ good wishes/ prayers your way I'm sure. You don't need me to tell you but you're not alone, we're all cheering for you every step of the way :lovethoug

My minging dressing gown is no longer minging and is hanging in the sunshine to dry. Charlie has fresh water and clean perches - much to his annoyance...how very dare I indeed?!? He's a small bird with a big voice

DS has returned from cinema - told me what happens in the film, even though he knows I want to go see it - and gone to live at his dad's til Sunday, when would I pick him up please as he wants to go with me for Sunday lunch at my parents'. Well, it could just have been a DS shaped tornado I s'pose :rotfl:

whew...thought it was the hols - doesn't feel like it...

anyhoo Pleased to hear Mr Wolf is being seen to and Lamewolf WTG!

So what's been happening in Valliland?

w-e-e-ll

I have emptied another wall unit - three, matching wall units in DR which sit side-by-side and have stuff in

one is books, DVDs and my Cds
one is glass display and, in the cupboard, our board games
one is a drinks cabinet, drawers and a shelf (one drawer is the man drawer)
today I tok all the CDs etc out of that cabinet, cleaned cabinet, moved into LR with the help of the kids and reloaded with cds etc. All the videos were in there. Apart from the special ones (a few home vids) they've all been taken to the CS along with all the cassettes - the ones I bought. FOUR CARRIER BAGS

I've also been to collect pull for bathroom window blind. In a stroke of genius I took th eold one with me - good job as they sent the wrong one so that's been re-ordered

Rung the WM man - he will take away my old one (I know Kazwookie - but it will be GONE and Boots would charge £9.99 to take it) and he says chances are my motherboard has gone, parts too dear and recommends Bosch - any thoughts?

Another wall stripped of top layer of wallpaper

Oh and I swilled out my green bin - it was VERY whiffy!

Valli - my mum has a Bosch and has had it for 25 years+!

I have a Miele - it is so much lighter than the Hotpoint it replaced ( Ithought the people who removed it were going to get hernias...)

Miele - 8 years old and has never seen a repair man! (Rushes off to touch wood!)

anyway I will be back properly tomorrow - I'm just dropping in to say hi to everyone - we are back from th Olympics and have had a fab time!:j:j

LW - sending as many healing vibes/spoons as I can lay my hands on - and a huge well done for getting out to get the prescription for Mr LW!

Valli

Thanks for that, CY

Evening all

GWS vibes to Mr LW, roundtuit, Mrs B and anyone else in need. You are amazing, LW, and I bet that Mr LW is massively proud of you.

I've forgotten most of what I've read, so apologies if I've overlooked someone.

Didn't get a chance to post this morning, so here's what I've managed so far (not a lot, really ):
S&S kitchen
3 loads of laundry (last one still to go out)
folded dry stuff and put away
DH sorted his last wardrobe section
made brunch (for me and DS2)
made tea (for all of us)
burnt one large shopping bag full of paperwork in the metal bin type incinerator in the garden

Also went out with DH and DS2 to local garden centre for a walk around and coffee/ice cream. DH can't just go for a walk, which would save lots of money.

Not much point in updating the list, but here goes:
Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room
Clear those hotspots WIP
Hoover and mop floors - done all visible floor in DR
Shine your sinks
Wipe the sides
Clean WM/DW filters
Deweb those breeding spiders
Fuel comparisons
Tuesday - Living Room, study, computer desk
Hoover the floors
Wipe the mantle
HH tidying and wiping desk/urgent paperwork
Wipe the light shades and bulbs - carefully
wipe the sofas
15 minutes decluttering/putting things away
Wipe doors and handles, remember the top edge
Wednesday - Master Bedroom & Landing
Hoover the floor
Dust the skirting boards
Change the bed will do when back from holiday next Sat
Hoover the matress
Test smoke alarms
Clear and wipe bedside tables
Buy/label stuff for 'back to school'
15 minutes in the garden/outside pottering
Thursday - Bathroom, cloakroom, stairs and hallway
Clean the sink including behind the pedestal
Wipe splashback
Clean bath, shower, toilet
Hoover and mop floors
Sort understairs/coat cupboard
Clean a pair of shoes
Delete or reply to some emails
Make a list of everything I need to remember before we go away at the weekend.
Contact sky and/or BT re changing broadband and phone supplier
research B&C insurance
Health insurance claim
Car insurance - claim back cancellation fee

Next:
burn the rest of the paperwork to make space in the kitchen
sort through DS2's wardrobe
wipe over two coats so they can go in the collection bag
dry laundry in and last load out

Valli - originally I inherited mum's machine (AEG, I think), which I couldn't afford to replace as the brand was just too expensive. Since then I've had Bosch and I'm very happy with them. I've had mine from a place in Rotherham, as they have access to slight seconds, making better brands a bit more affordable.

I know... I said i was quitting I didnt however. I read a couple of chapters of my book but the garden was staring at me so I got up and weeded it and generally tidied it. When OH came home from work he swept up and did the heavy bits. Good job done its looking good. Brought the washing in and made the beds up straight away, they weren't runkled so didn't need ironing! Just stuck the dinner on as I had lost all track of time so its tuna pasta for quickness, bath then bed I'm shattered!

GWS wishes to all our poorlies and a well done pat on the back to LW and a huge big hug xx

Rowan_tree_2

Just a quick post to say that I've hardly stopped flying or working today, but Lamewolf, I think, has beat us all, and gets that Gold medal, whether she wants it or not!

I believe what LF accomplished shows us the power of love - well done LW - and here's to a speedy recovery to your DH.

Warm vibes and warm wishes to everyone feeling under par, R x.:)

Ihave accidentally bought 2 washing machines:eek:

Does the fact that I roared with laughter as soon as I read that mean I am a cruel person?
