    Goodness, how's it 2.30 already? Need to take Pip for a walk (HHMe) before getting the children then it's piano lessons for both of them, dinner and DD got Cubs. Here's my updated list so far:

    [FONT=&quot]Thursday - Master Bedroom[/FONT][FONT=&quot]
    [/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]HHMe time
    Extras
    Eat a frog

    [/FONT]

    My list
    Menu plan/shopping list for next week
    List Leapfrog and backpack on Netmums
    Ironing
    Start food cupboard inventory (frog)
    Typing x 1 (just come in and more due)


    LameWolf sorry you're not right - Pip sends you another kiss and says she'd like to snuggle up with you :). Hope DH having his friend home won't be too stressful for you.

    Hope Flylady's husbands interviews will go/went well and we have good news soon!

    Right, off for a walk to hopefully clear this headache I've had all day and shift the BD that's definitely lurking .....

    Level One

    [strike]Hoover and Mop all these areas
    Clean sink and toilet[/strike]
    Level Two
    [strike]Clean your grouting[/strike] - actually looking OK at the moment.
    [strike]Declutter any drawer[/strike] - no drawers in any of those areas, but today I've gone through my entire chest of drawers and got rid of a load of old underwear and some old clothes :D
    Level Three
    [strike]Wash shower curtains mats and toilet fluffy hats[/strike] - only a bathmat to do. Mr Minx went through a bit of a bathmat fetish, so we have about 8!
    [strike]Slap on some facecream, a mask, hand or footcream[/strike] - with the winds we get up here, a thick slather of Nivea is my daily friend....
    [strike]Put away anything on the stairs or landing[/strike] - unbelievably, there wasn't anything!


    Thursday - Master Bedroom
    Level 1

    [strike]Gather up all the laundry from various places
    Change the bedding[/strike] - done on Monday.
    Level 2
    [strike]Clear the floor and Hoover
    Tidy and dust at least one surface[/strike] - decluttered both bedside tables, cleaned, polished and vacuumed the dust out of the bedside lamps.
    [strike]Sort belts/scarves/jewellery - can any be rehomed/sold[/strike] - no, but I've got a big pile of textiles for recycling after doing my chest of drawers.
    Level 3
    [strike]Dust the bed frame[/strike]
    Wipe the door handles upstairs - DRAT! Forgot this one and I doubt it will get done now.
    HHMe time - I wish....
    Extras
    [strike]Eat a frog[/strike] - see above re: chest of drawers...
    [strike]Do your tax return[/strike] - done last June (yes, OK, you can all hit me now, but there was a very good reason for getting it in early - it got the £2000+ payment on account due on July 31st turned into an £84 refund!)
    [strike]When is your car tax due[/strike] - next month.
    [strike]More snow is coming - do you have milk, bread etc for the next few days? And salt![/strike]
    - apparently it's going to miss us up here, we've got clear sunny skies forecast for tomorrow with a little bit of snow overnight on Saturday. I'm getting another 30 bales of hay in though :D

    didnt make it upstairs i got distracted by sorting and filing birthday cards into a folder for the rest of the year.
    You've just reminded me I need to sit Mr LW down and do this task soon; we have cards allocated for the next two birthdays we need to send to, but nothing after that.

    We have a small stock of cards in; but I always get him to help match card to recipient, as he knows almost all of them much better than I do.;)

    Our visitor tonight won't be a major problem; Mr LW has known him for almost a quarter of a century, and he's our emergency key-holder - ie the person I can call if (for instance) I take a fall at home; he works in MK and Mr LW doesn't, so it makes sense to have someone who could get here quickly have a key.:o

    I've managed to give the loo and basin a clean - I have two A-frames of washing over the bath, so can't do that (we do the bath at the weekend in any case, when Mr LW is here to lift the bath-lift out).

    I've managed a gentle HH on the WiiFit, too; just got my Brain Training to do.;)

    Dins tonight is mushroom risotto; shrooms and onions are already cut (thanks, Mr LW:A:A:A) so that'll be easy enough.:o

    Mr LW is wfh tomorrow; and all being well, we shall finally get around to seeing The Hobbit.:D I've checked, and my CEA card is still in date, so only have to pay for one ticket.;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
  • Hope you enjoy the Hobbit LW - I loved it, but my knees had seized up by the end of the film - it is a tad too long...
