Natty thanks for the lists, and everyone else for the support.
Back to the paid stuff tomorrow so today is about trying to get everything straight again first. So glad I did the ironing.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
Well the rooms of doom have had 3.5hrs spent on them so far (including breakfast dishes). Decluttered a binbag of recycling and a pile of shredding so far... Had to come on and update list as am flagging a lot. After this it's a proper coffee fix and then change over WM & tackle rest of list (WM on 4th load).

Afternoon all.
Last night I tidied the livingroom up so much DD was concerned something was up when she came down this morning. Shame the kitchen still looked like a hovel:rotfl:
I've had a busy day already and I've not done any list yet :rotfl: Up and out to co-op this morning to get packed lunch stuff. I decided that £3 on a meal deal could be better spent on other things so by 7.30am I'd spent £10 on groceries in there BUT I have supplies for the rest of the weekGot back, chased a child to school who looked like she'd deck anyone who so much as looked at her :eek: Had a peaceful breakfast, had a bath, stripped my bed, WM x 2, TD x 2 (and one to go to get all the bedding dry properly it would appear :mad: ), paid stuff for 3 hours so far and as I've just finished my hot drink I'm going back to do some more. Will do more laundry later so I don't end up with piles of it laying around the kitchen wet.
Right, back to it for me..if I can remember where I put the printer cables!Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
