Thank you for doing the thread Dusty
Today I have been trying to eat my frog; paperwork filing.
Well done on the clear dining table Kaz. My paperwork piles are caused by someone clearing my things into the office and I forget about them. But there is not much of a better feeling than a clear table

Littlies in bed and they tidied away their own lego :T
I have got things out for morning except my own, I also want to get my hair washed tonight, and decide what's for breakfast / lunch tomorrow. Might do some readybrek / skimmed milk powder / sweetener for brekki to take and add hot water from the machine. And might just get some soup from the canteen at lunchtime. Unless I still have some crackers and mini tuna tins in my locker...
Really need to sort my diet outwhat little I had lost since holiday has reappeared this weekend
Is anyone else a lists / notes addict? I feel a bit out of control of things at the moment. Might go look for my notebook and diary and see if I can make sense of life :rotfl: I can organise my meal plan, I have parents evenings this month and various things I need to plan for but my head is sieve-like.
At least I can mark off my exercise - school and nursery and back twice each today.
Need to do the challenge list too... More lists :rotfl:Bossymoo

This is me, far too often! It never ceases to surprise me just how much I can get done when I actually, y'know, do stuff :rotfl:
Another shiny bathroom here, I buffed it all dry with an old towel so it really is gleaming :cool: I left bleached-soaked loo-roll on some mould-stained silicone sealant overnight but it hasn't shifted it, I'm going to nip into homeba$e to get some ready mixed grout to repair a little bit on the bathroom windowsill which is breaking down so I may look for some HG mould remover there too, it's apparently great stuff.
Now to retrieve the toolbox so I can measure the bathroom floor and get that timer cover off...
Not sure if I have caught you before you go to home base? Tried the HG stuff, didn't work for me and the fumes nearly did me in. Tried everything, for years then finally found on here, mix soda crystals, green bag NOT caustic soda, and a thick bleach to a paste, paint on and leave for up to 6 hours. It works, I was amazed.
Didn't get bathroom done as I did a frog and 're-grouted kitchen floor.
Will catch up tomorrow. Hugs ,spoons and chocolate. Off to read thread now.

Evening all. Just back from a night of paper folding - its more difficult than it looks! Anyway, the LR had a clean before the paid stuff today, and I used my new duster on a stick - how exciting. Also got rid of a bag of stuff to charity today BUT have done nothing from the list so am planning to make a start before the paid stuff tomorrow.
My excuse is that between paid stuff, going out tonight and taking SickDog to the vet (now awaiting test results) there just wasn't time. Still need to sort out my blood test and hosp appt too.
Catch you all tomorrow.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
