Goodintentions

Good morning

I had a rubbish night again last night Bad dreams, then relieved when my phone woke me up (battery full)! Then I couldn't get back to sleep as my brain had clicked on. I got up at 8.30 to make up for it

DH is going to my mum's as the physio is visiting SD & we want to talk to him about what he can & can't do & what we can do for him (specifically getting him out of bed). He will then visit his sister who is now staying at MILs. She will need a lift to her house to get more stuff. Later, we shall be visiting Ike@ to take back the blinds & change the bent bit of bed. So, that is another 3 weeks worth of petrol used in a week :eek:

I am going to track down some laundry & get the WM on, then (hopefully) finish my accounts before school pick up at 1.30. I also need to walk the dog at some point. Anyone care to join me for a HHC?

One carrot cake put in the freezer, the other is waiting to to be iced. (I'm guessing that's what Valli means in her sig of make 2 freeze one?)

It sure is - SUCH a timesaver, I find. Same when I do a casserole - I make a HUGE one and freeze half;)

Two lots of washing on line (towels); my bed's stripped. DD is still in hers but DS has been decluttered to school (questions-he-can-answer vibes please). Shall strip his bed imminently.

Froglet done

I MUST write a job list before I forget something.

just went through the plastic drawers at the side of the wm, not sure why we need over 100 pairs of shoelaces and 9 tins of black polish but thats DH domain. ive binned the battery operated shoe cleaner as it was never any good along with coasters bits of tat and old rubber gloves that were lurking in there.
clean front door window and hall mirror. first load on line and second load in wm

going to take my coffee upstairs and tackle a few more windows then the bathroom, see what i can achieve by 11am

I've been right through the house and gathered up all the bags we use for shopping etc and I'm now washing them all. The musty smell from some of them is disgusting. I'll also have a word with DD and see if she's happy to donate some of the ones she hasn't used in years. One has her name written in from when she was in year 4 and I don't think she's used it since!

Next job, decluttering the livingroom! HHC anyone?

Honey Bear - I'm taking it easier than usual but I'm not the type of person that can put their feet up and do nothing.

So far today I have done all the phone calls that I needed to do, took photos of items and listed for sale, the first load is in wm. Currently sitting on sofa cuddling dd and typing one handed.

I'm going to have 10 minutes cuddle time with dd then sort lunch. When dd goes for her nap after lunch I will do HHC in the kitchen (wash up dishes, clean the kitchen sink and taps, do another wm load) and then get a relaxing bath.

After that my plans for the rest of today:

Check online banking and move money around
Collect ds from school
HH sorting emails - Delete 50 emails
Surveys and other daily work
Do some course work
HH tidy up in the living room
Laundry (need to do 3 loads) - still got 2 loads to do
Sort through and organise diary
Do freelance work that is in for today
Make a start on the business plan that I need to get done
HHI

You've still done more than me.. I had my nails painted.. collected DS3's prescription... they appear to have given everything on his repeat and doubled most of it up! I now have a million tubs of blood test strips! I also made a cuppa.

OH has been designated chief tidier of the middle room and I'm going to play with the laundry.. in a bit!

Goodintentions

1 load on line, 2nd in WM, DW on, dog walked, accounts done :j I am just having some lunch before heading up to school (early school run on a Friday). I may go to the park after school.

I think I will call Ike@ now to make sure we don't have to return the whole bed (it came in 4 bits/boxes).
