Hello everyone :wave:
Thank you for the new list, Natty, and thank you for last week's, Dusty. Although I did very little flying last week, I did manage to do some sorting. I doubt that I shall be able to follow all the lists this week because I need to get the house and garden tidy and spotless by Thursday lunchtime, before the estate agents come to value it.
We have spent a couple of hours in the garden this afternoon, in glorious sunshine. DH mowed both lawns, which always makes the place look better. I have trimmed the lawn edges and planted all the things that were sitting in pots - mainly polyanthus and hyacinths.
I've packed up 7 eB@y parcels and disposed of some unwanted things via Freecycle, and more will be collected or posted tomorrow and Tuesday.
Tomorrow I shall need to run round the house putting things away (this may involve more than just picking things up and returning them to their rightful place, e.g. there are 2 shirts that need ironing first)and on Tuesday and Wednesday I will clean the place from top to bottom, which should not take long. We are due to have sunny periods on Tuesday, so that will have to be window cleaning day (unless I can persuade my regular window cleaner to call round).
I need to get some sleep now, ready for tomorrow's onslaught
Hope everyone has a good week...0 -
Thank you for the list Natty - and thanks to Dusty for last week. I managed to get every room looking reasonable so had a guilt free day off flying today and had a lovely afternoon in the park with my girls.
Girls are off school tomorrow so I'm not working (although I'm minding niece & nephew), but I should be able to get a reasonable amount done tomorrow while they play for a bit. But then I'm back to work on Tuesday so that's when my time for flying is greatly reduced, but I'll do what I can.
Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend x0 -
Thanks for the list Natty. I'm in again this week. I got a fair bit done yesterday as I'm out nearly all week.
Will get level one of the kitchen done this morning. I've got a bag ready to. Go to the charity shop from the spare room.0
