Washer on again with towels and some bedding.
Just done 25 mins of weeding - yay me!!! Plan to rest for similar time then do another 25. DH will be mad as I can't use my magic kneeler where I'm weeding but it is supposed to throw it down overnight and this needs doing today. Baby steps. It was a real mess after winter so well overdue but only just sufficiently dry now to walk on - and we didn't get the worst of the weather.
Leaving the kitchen until tomorrow pm as gardeners coming to do a small job tomorrow and if it rains they'll be in the kitchen with muddy boots on:).
Catch up tomorrow folks.
LW mind you do as Mr LW says now - don't copy me, please!!!!July 16 £95/£200

I am in this week please, thank you for the lists.
Health visitor is coming back tomorrow even tho she has told me that there is nothing she can do to help DS1 so the point of this visit is......
We are not looking to bad but I do need to wash all the windows and frames the condensation is making them disgusting!
I hope we are all having a good day0 -
Mainly at the paid stuff for me today, did do a Mr L shop and 2 loads of washing which DS1 did not follow the correct instructions about putting out.
Bit worried that DS2 still feels ill.
Just going to do dinner for DS3, pop to a neighbours and then get the washing in. Supposed to be going to a meeting tonight which I really do not fancy but cannot see a way out of.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Washing in off line, folded and in airing cupboard.
I guess some of it becomes ironing tomorrow
3 hours of gardening done, just working out how to mend the green house, and then what to plant in it this year...........
LW I'll come over and cut your grass tomorrow, as I need to come to MK to get moss killer for the lawn, I'll even bring my own mower.

I was at my work until one, had lunch, done the above and I have also managed an hours snooze and away to get started on making dinner! No doubt the kitchen will look like a bombsite after I've made dinner & I will have to start the process again!!

I need to come back to you all, I have become a lazy moo doing pretty much nothing. I am at home for a week and then away for a while but if I don't kick start now then I will keep putting everything off. I will start with baby steps again this week and then start in earnest when I am home.
I have deleted what I don't need to do.

Evening all, I'm throwing myself back in again. Thanks as always to Dusty and Natty for the lists each week. House not looking too bad tonight, been away all weekend so house left pretty tidy and kids haven't had time to mess it up yet. :rotfl:
All bags are unpacked, kids all bathed with 1 already asleep, dinner stuff put away and 2 loads of washing done.
Gonna go an make DD's packed lunch and sort school uniforms for the morning. DS3 back to school tomorrow after being off a week with the chickenpox, so glad he's over them.
Did manage a great declutter before we left at the weekend, completely done our bedroom and sorted all clothes. Still loads more to do tho and loads to get up on ebay.
