Such a long day plus studying. You're nuts, but you're never going to change! :rotfl:

And have you contacted a RSPRD* re-homing centre for help?!

REST! x

DedicatedDFW

Hi All,

I did a bit of study and quite a bit of resting

I have had a bit of a busy-ish morning. I've been to Mr L's and done a bit of shopping there :T

I bumped into a friend on the way back and had a brief catch-up

I've done 2 lots of washing - 2nd lot is drying now :cool:

I've moved the pots

I've cooked ragu

Moved large item from spare bedroom

I've cooked lunch using free meat - steak, fried onions and mushrooms (gifted to me as family wasn't going to use it) and reduced price rolls om nom nom

I've cooked chicen pieces in herbs

I've gifted a roasting dish :T

I've decluttered 2 cupboards - only item to part with was butter dish :cool: - 1 of the cupboards was sauces, vinegars, dressings etc. so used but not everything every day. The other cupboard was plates - 2 items got put into the place they should live in and the butter dish went to the carboot pile :T

Car insurance renewal sorted out both - as its spending money and :T as its a completed job *and* i got the best price - no cashback but its still cheaper than anywhere else and it is an irksome job all completed now

Things i'd like to achieve today are:~

Pots washed,

dried

moved

Double cup cupboard to be decluttered

Empty work bag into old work bag. Current work bag to carboot pile

Move walking boots

Don't forget to factor in some "you-time" as well, no sense in running yourself into the ground!

DedicatedDFW

Thanks Nargleblast - i am just about to do that now

I have done everything on my list except 'text 2 part 1' my mind is willing but my body isn't :rotfl::rotfl: Don't worry i am so used to having an upset tum and its not going to stop me sitting back and having a little glass of wine now either In fact i feel more comfy all propped up as i am now

So i am a little disappointed that i didn't get more done on the assignment but i'll get up early tomorrow - which i'd planned to do anyways

So Tomorrows plan:~

Make Leek & potato soup

Wash pots

Dried

Moved

Final dish cupboard declutter

drawers 1-5 declutter

Drawer declutter

Wine rack declutter :beer:

Final double cupboard declutter

Leaves:- fridge and cooker and window ledge and work-tops and cutlery

2nd work bag organised

Tidy study book area
