All food stuff is either up to date or on the shopping list already (go me!) so I think I am going to dig out the scarf I am crocheting (getting bored with the squares for a throw) and have "Yarn Therapy" most of the dayDo not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup

Well, in that 40 mins, I :
remade DD's bed,
sorted through 2 of her drawers and got a bag for charity,
polished and hoovered in there,
tidied the stuff on the landing(DD needs to decide to keep or chuck), hoovered the landing that is clear and hoovered half way down the stairs.
I want to rearrange the tree before hoovering down here and up the rest of the stairs. I have put DD's teddies with the elf sitting on the floor....My Mum brought round a Christmas colouring book, so going to start one of the pics and put it and the pencils with the teddies before she come from school.
HHC at 11..................
