    Had a really good day today - done everything on the list from Dusty (thanks Dusty :)) and done all my other jobs except for these 2:

    Start food cupboard inventory (frog)
    Ironing

    Hardly any ironing to do so hardly worth heating up the iron and hey, I've done the other frog and if I eat too many I'll get indigestion won't I ;)! Unfortunately it's that time of the month for me already (only went just over 3 weeks - maybe I'm starting the change :() and not being very kind to me so going to have a lovely easy evening sat doing my knitting.

    DD will be back from school soon and then we'll pick up DS from football club. Quite fancy doing some baking this evening and DD loves doing that so I'm sure that'll make me feel better won't it! Of course it's nothing to do with the fact I fancy a nice apple crumble .....

    my eldest os wasting time in the lounge under the guie of doing homework but keeps coming to tell me stuff that i really dont need to know ???

    I have just finished sorting dd3's wardrobe and have a new huge pile of washing but i am determined to get to the bottom of the pile by te weekend. :D

    about to go S&S in the bathroom although may use the extra time i have to do a bit more than an S&S. Just need to return a few items to their rightful place in the childrens bedroom and then put a wash load on before getting my hands dirty.

  • helloooo, would love to join in pls.. things been getting on top of me big style & I've been poorly for weeks now as got so low.. still I need to get back on it.
    Been decluttering like mad and even managed to deep clean the downstairs loo last week (good job, plumber had to come fix a leak today!) but energy levels aren't what they should be so taking it one day at a time...
    Thanks for the interesting read so far! x
