Bolognese is in the slow cooker, the washing is on the line and I've started to restack the dishwasher.

I think I'm happy with that today - off to w**k soon so will have some lunch and a cuppa now.

See you all later

this is it

Morning all

Kitchen/diner done up to level 3 except for oven.

I'm pleased because I wiped kettle and toaster (and decrumbed) and moved microwave to wipe underneath before I read today's mission.

Two loads of washing on the line but it looks like it's going to rain any time. Hasn't dried at all

Also, damp wiped living room and vacuumed through there and hallway on my way to do kitchen floor.

Tidied up wardrobe in spare bedroom (I'm practising calling it the spare room instead of DS's room ), then moved most of DH's coats in there so there is room to see what is in his wardrobe. Needed a shoe horn to get stuff in there before. Still full but better. He's got twice as many clothes as me.

Wow!! #I have actually done something today.. I am absolutely shattered but the kitchen is half done.. the used half is done.. just the dining half to do now.. which means folding about 8 loads of dry laundry.. *sigh*.. might put tiddles to bed and get it done then and I'll justify my nap then..

I've excelled my lazy self today!! I love the sun!

Big pats on the back to you all. :T I have done some bits, but not much past level one. Wanted to get some stuff out on the line, and i can't get the stupid thing to open out (rotary one). Something must be sticking and i can't see what.

Have done 2 washloads, and marked 12 papers. Quite proud cos Charlie ate my spaghetti bolognaise, so that is pretty much his 1st proper meal mashed down from what we had, so only minimal messing. Starting to feel like he is a big boy rather than a baby.

He's currently in hysterics cos he is chasing the cats around in the baby walker. They aren't too impressed as they would rather be laid on the floor asleep, but it is so funny to watch. I'm trying to stop him, but he even worked out how to follow them in the kitchen, he is so determined to do it. :rotfl:

Will get a bit more done when he is asleep again this afternoon. hopefully he will have at least another hour, which will maybe let me wipe everything else round and i'll save the joys of the hoover till after his bath, as the cats will only mess around in there again and cover the floor in cat hair. Perhaps if i brushed them there would be less hair on the floor, but that is probably more effort than it is worth. :rolleyes:

Anyway, think i will try and grab some lunch before it is time for Charlie's bottle, and then i won't have to waste time when he is asleep doing that.

Well done again to you all, it's great to see you all chivving each other along in the absence of lil-me. She will be proud of us when she gets back.

Michelle, x

Just about to S&S the kitchen which gets done more thoroughly as part of my list. I'm also trying to work out what "Track 1" is on my playlist on Media Player... I have about 21 tracks listed as "Track 2" another 21 as "track 3" ... you get the idea:rolleyes: Fantastic idea of OH's to rip the CD's to the computer so I can easily skip the "Explicit lyrics" ones but he could have labelled the s*ding tracks & albums for me!

What I thought would be the last wash load has had to be split as I realised 2 bathsheets, 2 baby-hooded towels (I use them for my hair ), bath towel & handtowel would break the machine :rolleyes: Good job there's also flannels, teatowels & cleaning cloths to be washed :rotfl:

Right, will dive to the depths of my freezer to see if there is anything in there to have for tea... I know there are chicken portions but I don't particularly want to be thawing them on the worktop :rolleyes: :wave:
