Ah, good, Doggies going to stay Chez Wolfie. Excellent news! (That reminds me, The Wonder of Dogs is on iplayer if you didn't see it on TV, they were discussing the Jack Russell breed last episode.)
Right, I'll go and sort some laundry then go off to the recycling with a bag of magazines.
I hope to find my get up and go as well.

Just made a mental list to go to Stap1es and buy a new list book and some fine Sharpies in different colours so my lists can be prettier. You lot are a bad influence.
Just found the new smoke alarm on the floor in the hall :mad: I guess reusing the sticky pad wasn't such a brainwave after all...
Just editing to say HOORAY! to new lodgers, LW
Also, just going to slap myself if I use the word 'just' at the start of a sentence again today.0 -
Am going so slowly today :rotfl: WM on and HHI completed, HM beef stew on for when DH gets home (it's a long day for him today, poor man) and some half-hearted sorting through of clothes. Have made a couple of calls to get rid of things from my own list, but really need a kick up the backside to get going properly!

Mr Tesco delivery here and put away.
Lunch made, eaten and tidied up.
Emptied tumble dryer, folded and put away clothes.
Decluttered a big corner double kitchen cupboard where I keep all my tupperware and bits and pieces. A few things sorted for charity shop. I then tidied another smaller cupboard where I keep spices, sauce, packets etc. I used some of my older tupperware to sort the things in this cupboard and it looks much better.
I was about to put the rest of the tupperware that I don't use into another bag for the charity shop.....but I think I might just keep them for a while as they may come in handy for tidying drawers or the bits and pieces from the top of the wardrobe

took longer than i thought as lots of washing was dry on the line, so managed to keep lots in and all the stuff from the wm out.

managed to change one bed and declutter a load of pots and rubbish, going to attack it with duster polish and white vinegar now so surfaces and windows will be clean then ill dyson.
DS2 has just got in from school so cant do his room yet as hes getting changed so ive told him he can strip his bed while hes in there.SPC~12 ot 124

thank you for the lists dusty & natty :A*If you have nothing nice to say... say nothing*"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." Martin Luther King Jr0 -
LOL, DS2 thought i said throw everything on the bed so i can hoover, when i told him to strip his bed ready for new stuff.
anyway hes gone round his mates so as the carpets are all clear ill push the dyson round the boys rooms and the landing, then id better rehome home his stuff before I strip and change his bed.
bonus is ive managed to find a stack of mags and old school stuff that can be culled (so thats in the recycling before he gets back)
HHC at 4.30 anyone i must get their rooms finishedSPC~12 ot 124
