Big part of the wrapping done, not much more to buy
Bed changed
Reef remade
That is it. Plumber was here for 6 hours and the problem is not fixed. I'm dreading the bill.
Just need to help DH push the wardrobe back in our room and then I'll sort the list on here.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

GI - well done to DH
Dusty - my ironing is up to date, I spent 3 hours doing it all today, even the horrid stuff that continually gets shoved to the bottom of the "do it next time" pile. I'm ironing on a daily basis now - very pleased with myself and all that steam has cleared my sinus prob so double bonus.
Tomorrow I am wrapping ALL day, well, between 9and 2.30, hope to get most of it done
