Thanks for new thread. Got a head's start having hoovered all downstairs today so looking forward to a fantastic and motivating week.
My main targets are to make SEVERE progress on the business/office lists - liked last week's "having a meeting with myself dictating into tablet" as it felt like a proper work meeting, with minutes and actions.
Target 2 make progress sorting out holiday photos, as 4 friends coming to dinner on Friday and although they are interested, don't want to bore them rigid wading through carp ones (lots of out of focus humming birds anyone?).
Target 3 is my challenge piece of writing.
Have a great week everyone.Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.0 -

I am in.....will definitely make a start bright and early.
DD1 and DD2 safely decluttered with most of their clutter to university. I have invented a new meaning for an existing word "Unification" when money is so tight dropping your children at University is treated like a vacation with the remainder of your family in tow for the ride!
All young Skints currently asleep, I am going to watch come iplayer and fall asleep before midnight, at least that is the plan!
