WM is all done, just got tot get it all dried.
Been to my office and had a sort out there, more to go.
My other work have phoned to check I am back and will be in tomorrow!
Been to the dr's and got 20 days of anti botci's for an insect bit on my arm that just won't go~ 20 days 4 times per day, he must think it is serious as I thought they only gave 5 days at a time.

mrt done, just got to portion it all down in to portion sizes.

Soup to make for work lunches for this week

Kitchen floor to do later on once cooking has been done.

Good morning (just)
DH got up early. He walked the dog, put the washing in the TD, prepped dinner (cottage pie filling in SC), washed up & emptied TD - all before going to work & while I was in bed

I haven't achieved much. I have covered another chair. That is 3 out of 6 now.

Just had phone call from one of my minded children's mums. She told me that a mutual friend has been diagnosed with lung cancer. She told me because her son is very close to the lady's daughter, and they will be moving to be close to family. She is wanted me to know in case it affects his moods/behaviour Some healing vibes would be appreciated. This lady is only 32 & a non-smoker and she has 3 young children. It breaks my heart thinking about it

I think I need to kick my but into gear & do something! The coffee table has become a Christmas hotspot so I may tackle that.

Bit of a slow start for me today and I have lods to do - need to get motivated, but the lazy teens lounging around aren't helping

MrsChaos

No market today, so it was an extra quick trip. Don't understand why it wasn't on, as they did have it on Christmas Eve.

I bought some bread at the baker's and an A4, page per day diary at the paper shop. It was overpriced, but I was looking all over for one yesterday and I really want to use it from tomorrow.

DS1 has gone to work with his pack up (has to start two hours early so he can get a full shift in before 9pm) and I've made lunch for DS2 and me.

Time for more washing up after that and then I'll take SIL's birthday card and sort my contribution to tonight's buffet (sweet stuff and bread).

Healing vibes are on their way for your friend, Goodintentions. Such sad news.

Valli

aw GI what awful news.

I am calling a HHC - I MUST clean the kitchen.

1pm anyone?

I know the list sounds hard work & loads on it, but my house is already pretty clean and relatively clutter free so it doesn't take long. Especially when I get my music on loud and get stuck in

Christmas stuff is all packed away and labelled, except for the cards. I have a file on my computer that I write all the received cards in so in theory I don't forget those people next year I'm using DD's laptop though ATM so I can watch utube so I'll do that later. Started my written list of what I need to buy for next year and made a note I don't need wrapping paper Off to shove these boxes and the tree in the cupboard, make a cup of soup and then get on with the actual cleaning.

ETA: Valli - I'll join you!!!
