    Good HHC thanks - what's left is below. Am thinking I should polish off the lists by the end of tomorrow (fingers crossed).

    Monday Madness - Bathroom and Study/Pc Area
    Clear any clutter from desk

    Tuesday ~ Kitchen and Dining Mess
    Level Two
    Clear out a cupboard.. The one with baking supplies or the one with pans and plastic boxes.. GO!! Or you could, if you have one, clear the pantry!
    Sort fridge bringing what needs using soon to the front, clean out any spills or grots in there!


    Thrilling Thursday - Master Bedroom & Landing


    Extra tasks list, as usual choose one or more
    • In your stash of 'things'.. sort through and get rid of at least a carrier full.. decluttering we call it!

    My jobs:
    1.30 Walk with Tina
    Start Ealing list
    Flymarkeeteer: £168 and counting
  • My HHC ran over time and involved clearing up 2 smashed glass, decluttering 2 phonecalls and random clearing/tidying. It doesn't sound much when written down but I can see a difference.

    I'm going again at 2 - 2.30 after a spot of lunch if anyone cares to join me? Not you piggers, you sit and enjoy the silence :D

    Hi all

    No flying yet...

    Took tots to dentist, both really good and sat in the chair and had stuff painted on their teeth. That was a bit of a frog. I've got prescription toothpaste with extra fluoride in for hypomineralisation (I think) which she suspects DS has inherited :(
    Also been to docs and have a plan to trial cutting my meds down. And been shopping for a dress and some boots but spent nothing. (No I haven't stolen, lol, I just couldn't find anything I liked).

    I need a nap. Tots are at grannies now so I may just have one!

    Struggling with major dizzy spells as well as the pain; damn nuisance, as Mr LW's pal is coming over this evening.

    Hey ho – it all keeps life “interesting” I suppose. There's plenty on here with more to contend with than I. Thinking particularly of our dear L-L here.:o Will light the candle I have ready on my desk later.

    Going to see if latest dizzy spell has passed – ie will I fall over if I try to stand up?:eek::D

  • Good afternoon :)

    Have done dailies, grocery shopping and posted a birthday card as planned but I didn't get to the library.... will have to go tomorrow and maybe meet up with a friend for coffee too.

    Haven't done anything from the list today as yet; just having a cuppa and a read on here then I might do a few things off the list this evening but will change the bed tomorrow morning.

    ionafan - pleased to hear you've completed the curtain frogchallenge :T

    Back later x
  • I hope you haven't fallen over lamewolf :(
