    Morning all

    Friend taken to hospital, only patients allowed through to the ward so I'm home earlier than I though.

    DS3 has the Thorpe park map and is happily planning.

    I've rearranged the dentist appointments and put WM on

    Just having breakfast then hoovering first but think I need to do a list on paper as so much to do today.

    Sad I didn't get the bedroom done yesterday as I work my second job on a Wednesday so was tired :( but my sheets don't actually need changed yet, so gonna do bedroom at the weekend instead. On a more positive note, my kitchen deep clean continues...and my corner cupboard and cupboard above the cooker are now in order! Just the hob and oven to clean and a wipe under appliances and the floor to do. Gonna do the hob and apply the oven pride tonight, to be cleaned tomorrow morning. Will also have a go at living room, hall, stairs and landing this afternoon!

  • Piggers - Happy, safe delivery vibes for you xx

    It's a day off to have quality time with the children, however I volunteered to help OH with a job he's on but as we seem to not be speaking, I am gonna stay at home and take my rage out on the utility room, kitchen and pantry and have a blitz as it's gone beyond a quick S&S and it's getting me down.

    There is so much to do in these areas - where to begin? Kettle, I reckon. Will put the washer on and do the pots too for starters.

    have you an air duster (I find Wilkinson's cheapest)? If so blow it through the vents. Cover nose/eyes or look away though. Laptops are worse than PCs for this as there isn't enough room within.

    Well I am running this i book fine bit the flash player is ood and i can't play Radio 2.

    Sis has gone on an errnad; I'm here in case the chimney sweep comes. I am going to do out a cupboard in the kitchen in a minute, once I source some music...

    oooh bil here!

    Morning all. I have a bit of a reprieve today as we're not out until about 1pm so I can get on with some jobs.
    Off to have a look at Mondays list and work my way from there :o.
    Hope everyone's well? Hugs to those who need them.
    Piggers, enjoy your cooking session!
