Newsletters are finally written. Now I just need to work out how many "new customer" ones I need to print. I've had to do little slips to go in the brochures as stuff is out of stock or the wrong image has been printed and there's no room on the newsletters for them. Tonight is going to be a long night sorting all those out. I think I'll do my current customers first, then make a start on the new customer ones.
DD is banished upstairs to wash her hair, put laundry away and get her PJs on. Then we're going to have tea, put our rental dvd on and watch that while we stuff books/stamp forms, staple in slips. I will get there...eventually.
Flying wise, WMx3 TDx3 and I'm waiting on DDs hair towel then I'll put the last load onIroning pile is about 5 items so I might get DD to do that later
Off to find the rice for tea, and turn the slow cooker up. :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Mrs Dog is helping me by sorting through the spare linen that has been removed from the settle in the dining room, and the rubbish that was in the bin in my office - until she took it all out, piece by piece.Better is good enough.0

I've just gone into the kitchen where DS2 was eating crackers and grated cheese; he was sweeping under the breakfast bar with the dustpan and brush.

Al: "I made a mess, I'm just swishin' and swipin'"
