    Morning All

    Have fun today piggers!!

    I need to pack as well as a 100 other things today. I did a pile of ironing yesterday but I've still got a load more to do so I'll probably do some more of that as well. I could also do with doing a bit of sorting in my BR, clearing a path through the conservatory which I never got chance to finish off and hoovering all through. On top of which DS has got a presentation at football this afternoon, I need to take some stuff back to Matalan, drop some stuff off at the CS, drop my tent off but I need to put it up first to make sure I can put it up on my own and everything's ok with it and I could do with getting my car cleaned.

    Oh well, I'll see how I get on.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Jue

    Good luck, pigpen!

    I'm not up yet, time to put kettle on and start rousing step kids so I can take them to SIL while I do a couple of hours paid flying.

    Other jobs:

    Find all cheques which are littered about and bank them
    Small shop for dinner and Sunday supper
    Pack bag for the weekend
    Start sorting through yarn stash and see if any of it is worth listing on fleaBay. If not, I need to take it to CS. Arduous task alert, I have so much pretty yarn I won't want to part with any of it but we're struggling for space and as I've been knitting the same sock for over a year :eek: it's time to declutter a sizeable chunk
    Fill up the car so it stops beeping at me every time I switch on the engine
    S&S kitchen, LR and bathroom
    Load WM ready for dirty work cloths and clothes

    morning all
    is today Bday!! for pigpen?? hope all goes well
    glad you are having a great time Bossy and LOs
    hugs, good wishes, positive thoughts and healing vibes to all who need them. cutlery rack full of spoon for those who have run out and a few sticks tossed to keep the BDs at bay.

    DH finally noticed the jasmine last night (only cos DS2 told him something huge was gone from the garden and even then it took him 1/2 hour of woking up and down) he told his mum i'd done her garden as shed not noticed.

    8 bags of garden rubbish have just been taken away (filled an extra one quick with the pile i'd pulled on the park whjile the cart was there)
    3 household an 9 recycling to go.

    pets all fed and watered, its drizzling here so washing wont be getting dry on the line today, will have to hang under drive to get it out of the way.

    will S&S everyday to keep it clean
