    Monday - Little bit of everything to start the week

    Only got 15 minutes....

    [STRIKE] 15 minutes tidying up/putting away downstairs [/STRIKE]
    Got 30 minutes


    [STRIKE] S&S toilets and sinks[/STRIKE] Hoover and mop the floors

    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. Ten minutes done so far, I can see the desk again.

    Extras

    [STRIKE]Meal plan for the week[/STRIKE] This is a tricky one this week as I have a lot of meals out/treats planned but I'm trying to do it on a low budget. EEK!
    [STRIKE]Empty all the bins[/STRIKE] It's cheating, but I did this yesterday ;)

    Bits I've done that weren't on the list
    A load of washing done and out on the airer
    Wiped down the shower
    Started the headache of energy comparisons as my energy bills will be going up soon - thanks NPower! I currently pay £54 per month but if I fix my monthly cost goes up to £69 per month...and it's only meant to be a 10% rise so I can't decide if I'm better off staying put. Does anyone have any suggestions?
  • Dry washing away. Ironing done.

    Lunch, watching friends (still love it!)

    After lunch I shall clear the top of the sideboard aka The Hotspot.

    Hi All

    I've added the me mountain challenge. A huge well done to Mr and Mrs Ionafan for achieving their 1st loss each :T:T:T

    Do we want to continue with the challenge or are we happy to "go it alone" now? Have a think.

    "See" you soon.

    3 loads of washing washed and tumbled/ put on maiden.

    Lunch eaten and cleared away.

    DH been to consultant and signed off for 6 months :j

    I've spent 30 mins in the ROD aka the utility room. DSS is coming over after work to fit the new panel in the back door. The floor is now clear as are the surfaces.

    Still feeling under the weather from the cold that hit me after DSD's wedding. Soreness in the base of my throat that just won't go.

    Thanks for working so hard with the challenges Bossy. It must be alot of work for you. I'm happy to go it alone, still stuck on W3 of C25K. I want to feel well again!!!!

    Just had one of my neighbours come round, she'd found a dead cat by her back door.
    It's one of mine, my youngest, little Marmite. I'm guessing she was hit by a car. Phoned the girls dad, he's coming over later to dig us a hole. I phoned DD1 told her, now have the joy of telling DD2 when she gets home from school. If I can stop crying long enough.
    I've text my ex boyfriend and told him, he and Marmite were best friends, inseparable when he was here.

    Wendy, I'm so, so sorry to hear about Marmite. Please accept a hug.
    Better is good enough.
