Right, now I'm on the laptop and more awake I can do my list for the day. We've got our first session for our hypnobirthing course this evening, so I have from now until 6pm to get everything I want sorted.
Poorly cat is much better today, although it looks like he's gone off raw chicken. Have roasted him some chicken pieces this morning then picked the meat off the bone, he's gobbled them all up (funny considering he wouldn't eat the things raw). No2 cat also tried some of the cooked chicken, little widge won't eat it when it starts to go cold though only when it's piping hot so she's also had the biscuits no1 cat is allergic to.
I've got a conference call at 10:30 so I'll get on with some work until then, then I'll start on my list after the call, gives a nice slow start to the week

Hello Ladies :hello:
I'm back again. Life's been pretty cr*ppy (again) but I'm trying to get things sorted.
I had another run in with the ex husband, now waiting to hear about court again
My on again off again relationship is off again so I need to find something else to focus on. So it's back to the house
I'll be working from my own list today. I'll be doing the bathroom today.
So far I've washed the dog bedding, loaded and put on the DW and reloaded the WM with clean washing that now stinks of bonfire thanks to my neighbours :mad:
The week before last the daughter from next door said they were going to have a fire. No fire ever happened 'til last week AFTER I'd put a whole line of white washing out!! :mad: No warning of it happening though!
We were so busy with the girls drumming at the weekend I hadn't been able to rewash it 'til today.
I'm going to finish my coffee and get on with the bathroom, be back later x0 -
I am in again, thank you for lists....might have more of a chance this week now its the first proper week of school.
LSD good luck for tomorrow, looking forward to hearing all about baby dragon's arrival.
Welcome to Madcatgirl there is nothing like this thread to help with nesting and get house ready for bubbas arrival
Kitchen sinks are currently having a bleach bath, kettle has been boiled up with vinegar for a good de-scale.
Decluttering a nice cup of herbal tea while I lurk and catch up with Fred. Will start again at 10.30 for a good HH- nuke the kitchen :rotfl:
Any joiners?The cold never bothered me anyway0 -
Thanks Dusty for the thread
I'm in this week. I have lots on for work, and Thursday is an errands running day (I need to get a bus to DD's school in the evening so I'm going to utilise a bus pass and get bus needed errands out the way during the day:money:) but I'll do my best to keep on top of the house
Most dailies are done. I'll do some work in the kitchen this afternoon after I've sorted the understairs cupboard out. I need the disposable dehumidifiers that are under there at the back, and also to dig out the decorating stuff. Last year I filled cracks in my livingroom ceiling and they're still not painted over, so my plan is to get the livingroom decorated before DD breaks up for half term. It'll probably take me that long due to work & medical appointments

LSD best wishes for tomorrow!
Welcome to newbies and returners!
I will post the challenge list, I promiseonly its on my works laptop and I'm having connection problems this morning. Obviously my broadband is ok as the tablet is working.
So I've mostly been on the phone, but also done a pickup walkround, and fed WM. Pretty cold here so since it was only a small 30min wash (to get the felt pen off DD blankie) its all pegged in the airing cupboard...
DW also emptied, and brekki things fed in. Brown bin is done so hopefully later I can tackle the unruly apple tree! The one at the front looks heaps better since I nearly chopped my finger off...
Taking DS to school in half an hour with his dinner moneybless him. He's been v quiet this morning, sat next to me at the table "working" playing the cbeebies app
I might do flying during the day today and work a few hours tonight - assuming I can get connected again
Also need to call the lucky chosen roofer (and the others to say no thanks) and sort the payment options out :eek:Bossymoo
Away with the fairies :beer:0
