morning all
hope everyone is well
a bit drizzly here this morning so doubt ill get any/much washing dry.
hope all are well
hugs good wishes positives thoughts and get well vibes where needed
made a start on todays deep cleaning. ive dragged everything out from under the PC desk and we are talking big desk - its an old building society desk so its quite large and has lots of 'stuff' under it you cant put your knees under as the knee hole is piled high with baskets full of files full of papers and magazines ive saved because they'd be useful. so useful hat loads gets put under there but rarely gets bought out to read. if i need anything out of the household file thats at the bck of beyond it takes 1/2 a day to locate it and put it all back so it needs doing.
The table is now piled high with assorted paperwork files and baskets im hoping it will be tidy by the time i go to work.

Morning All

Literally got NOTHING done yesterday as working then chauffering offspring to various locations. By the time I actually got home it was 10pm, I looked around at the devastation :eek::eek::eek: and thought b*gger this and took myself off to bed. I love my kids dearly, but I am quite looking forward to them going back to uni, because, at the risk of sounding like an old codger- "they treat this place like a bloody hotel" :mad:

My plan for today is: More tea and toast - I can't think any further ahead than that ATM

See you all later x

Morning All :hello

Well I done sod all last night, got my new phone yesterday so was busy with that & DD who is having her WWII tea dance today decided at 8.30 last night to remind me I was to bake cakes for it!!!!! (I did say Iwould, but a reminder on Monday would have been good) :rotfl:I pulled everything out & realised I didn’thave enough flour - cue a trip to Ald! for some bought cakes .:o

I am looking forward to it, the kids have been working on it for months & she got a Gold Certificate for her project,she has loved doing it. So I will hopefully get some stuff done before I need to go to school this afternoon, then a bit after before I start to take the hem up on the curtains asI am waaaay behind this week.

Morning all

I'm late in this week as I've been busy working and yesterday just vanished in the blink of an eye :eek: Haven't managed to catch up with the thread so congrats, hugs, spoons, appropriate vibes to all

Well since my big clean just before Easter weekend I haven't done more than s&s, dailies, changing bedding and mountain ranges of laundry (between DD's holiday stuff, then her being sick my washing machine didn't stop for nearly 4 days last week!:eek: That includes me putting on a timer overnight so a load was done when I got up) so I'm going to crack on today and clean the house top to bottom (sounds impressive, it isn't really thanks to dailies ) since I don't need to work officially.

Ex is supposed to be bring DD's new laptop tonight :j Means I'll be able to use my laptop all the time now. Its been rather difficult trying to keep up with stuff online when DD's needed it for her homework, especially during the school holidays. He's also said he'll have a quick look at mine and see if he can work out why its playing up. All the things he taught me to investigate problems haven't found it this time and he knows how important it is for my work I might even be able to up my income a little more now as I'll be able to make time for more surveys and selling things

So back to the cleaning, I need to do the whole house (bathroom will be partly done as I plan on having a bath today BEFORE DD gets home at 3.30-4pm) so I'm going to grab a list from previous weeks and see how I get on.
