    I'm in as much as half term week with the kids here will allow. TY for the lists ladies
    Monday - Little bit of everything to start the week
    Only got 15 minutes....
    15 minutes tidying up/putting away downstairs (bungalow brigade living spaces)
    Got 30 minutes
    An hour to spare
    An hour will make a big difference in your Room of Doom! Is it one big hotspot? Put the timer on and do chunks of 15 minutes filing, flinging, sorting tidying.
    Extras
    Plan something for later in the week/next week for half term

    Thanks for the new list Dusty. I'm in.

    Last week was possibly the worst week of this year, best forgotten. No flying done post Wednesday other than washing and ironing. The hard floor tool for the Dyson hasn't been put back in its home so the house is a right state.

    I'm not working tomorrow so I'll attempt the list when we get back from DH's consultants appointment.
  • Big hugs Mumto5

    Bossy hope you're ok x

    Thank you Natty for last week, and Dusty for this week. Tomorrow's is totally appropriate, and do-able, in its entirety. Or should be.

    (((Hugs))) Bossy. Just because you're not posting doesn't mean we're not thinking about you. Also Valli, although hopefully you're in a different and happier place. Anyway, you're both missed while you deal with things.

    Welcome aboard Rachel 121967. Yo' moomin. The more the merrier.

    Sleep well tetris-playing Ionafan. When I bought this house 20 years ago (I met Mr HB three months later as a result) I knew it was a house that needed work, but I gave myself 10 - 15 years to do it. Tonight, over dinner 20 years later after more work than I had ever thought it needed, we negotiated, planned and costed another stage. How you two are still in a relationship after all the shifting and to-ing and fro-ing and carrying and moving and shoving and shifting in all the chaos, staying sane and still doing stuff outside the house, SW-ing and dusting - RESPECT!

    Decog, please accept my condolences.

    Mummyof5 - healing vibes.
    Better is good enough.
