Thrilling Thursday ~ Master bedroom & landing
30 minutes to spare...
Dust surfaces & make sure no cobwebs..
Got an hour...
Sort 10 things from your wardrobe (or someone elses) that you can get rid of..

• Clean windows in these rooms

It seem that once again, we're thinking along the same lines Natty!
If it's gone, it's done. I have made 2 important phone calls this morning already . One (driving licence) unfortunately has lead to more work but will save me £20 and I would have to do it all anyway in a few months. This way, I'll be covered for the next 10 years.
My own list today then:
Make cake/s for cubs for tonight (cause it's my birthday week!).
Ring DVLA for replacement licence.
Post DH's documents for ISA
Ring purple parking a website crashed mid booking last night
Cost and book holiday insurance
Book car service
Walk to PO and get form D1 to apply for new driving licence.
See friend for coffee
Get passport photos taken
Research how to resize a photo taken on a digital camera to become a passport photo- far cheaper!
Cost printer ink cartridges- order if not too scary. Need to discuss with DH.
Fold up the washing.
Ring both schools to sort out music lessons, one I'm not sure of the cost, the other, I've been paying by standing order and she's not had a lesson in months!



Going to be a bit bitty today isn't it?
Right, will finish this coffee and go and get dressed. Then I'll meander to PO and pick up the form.


Hope all are well today?

Hello *waves*

I'm a noob, can I join you?

I've been doing the FL challenges this week.

I can't make my bed as OH is lates and still in it, I'm feeling decidedly twitchy about this, I actually NEED to make it but can't tip him out yet

* [STRIKE]I've gathered up and put the bins out[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE] cleaned the kitchen surfaces[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE]paid an overdue bill (that was my frog swallowing for today)
[/STRIKE]
To-do today

* [STRIKE] Make the bed[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE] Clean out the drawer of despair in the bedroom[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE]Bag up stuff for CS[/STRIKE]
* Hoover
* [STRIKE]Clean the loo, we have en-suite in our flat and can't til OH is awake[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE]Clean the microwave (also did the hob and oven knobs and doors whilst I was about it[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE]Sort out supper for tonight[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE]Dust the tv and cabinet[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE]Tidy the sofa [/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE] De-cluttered lounge[/STRIKE]

I leave for work in one hour and can't hoover or clean the loo whilst his lordship languishes in the unmade bed.

It looks like a long list but I do what FL says and one thing gets done then I have a cuppa and interweb surf before doing the next thing. It really works this!

How do you all strike through text? I can't see an option to do it.

Update: Will hoover through tomorrow as we're not too bad and I've done the hob and oven doors and decluttered the lounge instead.

What have I done? I've edited my original and it's put another post up. Not spamming on purpose

If you want to strike through, there is an icon to do so when you are on advanced reply. it's up top an S with a line through it.
Or you can type the code [ s ] whatever you want to write [ / s ] but leave the spaces out of the bracketed bits IYSWIM?
