    2nd extra washload on now - I cleared DS's floor last night!!!:mad::mad::mad:

    he moans he has no clothes, but if he filed them.....

    i'd done all the clothes washing (so I thought!) last night - being a good flylady and getting ahead so I could tackle bedding! Then I end up with 2 extra loads....

    He is talking about moving out - I think it would do him a load of good! I just wish he'd get on with it!

    He came in at 4am like a herd of wildebeast! Noisy was not in it! I am NOT happy!

    Morning all

    sisters WA card posted.

    Saw neighbour, told him I paid the windows (whichever one of us they catch pays for both - but they charge them LESS when I pay for theirs :rotfl:) so that'll be a fiver coming home. I am also owed money by two colleagues so I'm hoping to see that money *kerching* (I bought something one of them needs in M'hall - I phoned when I spotted it) and the other was an e bay purchase which I had sent to hers when I 'won' it for her.

    But:o:o:o:o:o:o it's September. Back to work:o:o:o:o:o:o

    Of course - the house is absolutely immaculate, washing all done, ironed and put away, freezer brimming with HM meals, garden looks like A. Titchmarsh and D. Gavin live here, I am 2 stones lighter, car is shining and valeted. Everything is prepped for work

    Sorry Piggers, too busy eating cake.

    Update.

    Still to be done: In no particular order:

    Walk dogs
    Vacuum cream rug, lovely black dog hairs all over it. Obviously its ok to roll on it when I'm out! Actually whole house needs doing.
    Bathe dogs
    MUST do some gardening
    Get washing up to date - 2nd of three loads in the WM now and emptied airer, clothes put away, 1st load on line
    Sort out storage for medicines and dog stuff


    Already done:

    Fed dogs
    Eat
    Shower/dress
    Menu plan for week
    Clean fridge
    Wash up
    Do weekly shop
    Sort out recycling
    Sort out storage in DDs room and vacuum under the bed

    So the done list is getting longer, but so is the to do list. ?????
    My GUAG is returning though, so once cake is eaten, I shall get out in the fresh air with the dogs.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Ok Piggers, calories worked off with 90 minute walk with dogs. Had a nose at an empty house on the way back. The sign said 'to let', should have said 'toilet'. What a dump.

    Just having a cuppa (no cake) and will then cut the grass before it rains. 1st lot of washing now dry, but not put away, 2nd on line, 3rd - and last for today - in washer.
