Thank you Natty for this week's list and Dusty for last week's :T
Count me in again - I have slackened off over the weekend and it's surprising (not!!!) how quickly things begin to go downhill. Hopefully we shall not need to have any more viewings now, but I want to keep DH in training for tidiness and decluttering, as we are downsizing and need to [STRIKE]get rid of[/STRIKE] re-home a lot more of our stuff before we move.
Books, for example - my office has a whole set of shelves for specialist German/Engish dictionaries that I no longer need for work, and DH has a whole bookcase full of thrillers that he has read once and probably won't ever read again. His books will be gladly accepted by our local CS, but unfortunately the new postal rates make selling my big dictionaries much more difficult, and most of them are the type that booksellers can't shift. Has anybody got any ideas as to where I could pass them on to? I know I won't get much money for them, if at all, but I can't bear the thought of just binning them. I suppose Freecycle would be one option...
Hope everyone has a good week, and that those of you with children at home for the holidays don't get too frazzled.
Looking forward to the Flylady Meet on Thursday!0 -

Is the Green List for husbands?
'cos it should be!
Haha - I'd just been patronisingly reading out the children's list to my OH as his cleaning list :rotfl:
I'm in this week and going to try hard not to fall off the wagon midweek. Thanks for the list Natty and thanks to Dusty for last week's lists.
Today I'm up after a mini lie-in, a few fresh bits of snow here. My plan is to go suit shopping for groom and groomsmen suits this morning. Then flying. Then back to the shops to get a few of my own bridal bits and pieces. Then ironing.
Have a good Monday everyone0 -
