    Hoover floors[/STRIKE]
    Level Three
    [STRIKE]Sort a drawer

    HHI

    Also hoovered spare bedrooms, cleaned two spots of undercoat off the landing carpet and made :coffee: for the builder - who is painting the downstairs WC today. Bossymoo, you put me to shame with your decorating, but I can't reach the landing ceiling over the stairs and the downstairs WC had water damage so needed extra TLC. One day soon I will repaint the back porch :o

    Later I must get the spot cleaner out for bedroom 3 carpet, where DH has spilt coffee in front of his computer desk :mad:

    But the list doesn't look so bad for now! Will get on with paperwork for a while whilst enjoying :coffee: and get back to flying in the kitchen around lunchtime.

    Hello Flylady friends.

    Another loaf cake in the oven, kitchen s/s. laundry collected from various floors. DW unloaded and restacked.

    Big chat with DH last night. I'm now very down in the dumps. He's away tonight and left without dropping a kiss on my sleeping head at 5.30 this morning. I've spent a fortune kitting the kids out for the new school term. His contribution was to buy DS2 new football boots. The disparity is a gaping chasm between us. I'm fed up with being let down and he's angry that I won't believe he will change. We are both out of cash and payday is a week away.

    I have various eb*y sales finishing today so hopefully I will have a few quid for the weekend.

    I'm supposed to meet a friend for lunch in Chelmsford today. She will have to pay if we keep the arrangement.
