anyone want to join me for a HHC or two? im going to set up thye ironing table and do as much as i can before work. also need to ring and book a meal for me and DH because hes worth it

pigpen

Pushchair sold.. Space discovered!!
Box of recycling flung out.
ball pit balls bagged up and restrained.. bloody things!

I have so much stuff to fling it is unreal!!! My backroom is totally trashed .. I hate that when tidying things get 1000 times messier first!

mrs-moneypenny

glad the pushchair went pigpen, i just i disturbed the ironing session to raid DS1s wardrobe for coathangers and made the mistake of stopping to pick a few bits up. found over 20 jiffy bags that DD2 can have for eblaying, decluttered a drawer full of story cassettes for DD2s fellas kids -given my youngest is now 14 i shouldnt think anyone will miss them. 4 carrier bags of litter!!! i did put all the receipts and invoices in one envelope for him should he need them, a laundry baskets worth of mucky clothes and about 30 empty coathangers!! got time for HHC more ironing then heading off to work

honey bear I'm sorry the source of your entertainment has gone but it was a source of stress for me - I hate people coming to the house when I'm alone but I did have a quiet word with OH reminding him he promised to look after me and if he could see it ran smoothly for me (sorry if that's a bit spooksome) so it's rather nice that it did.

LW I'd like to think (see the above) it wasn't a deity as such just my own personal guardian angel :A

ETA if anyone else is interested in spooky things, just to confirm my suspicions, I emptied my pencil case into me new desk organiser tonight and found a bit of paper in, DH had written his name and put a x underneath like he was signing off a note to me

Good point re Guardian Angel. I should've realised.:o And how amazing to find that piece of paper.

Posivibes for Wendywitch and Amyloofoo; sounds like you could both use some.

I'm struggling a bit today - I always do on the first day dogless. Not to worry - Ted will be here tomorrow afternoon (arriving about 17:30).

I've put a batch of yogurt to trundle away in the yogurt maker, and done a towel wash (Mr LW coloured my hair last night, so I had some bright orange towels), cleaned the wash-basin, which looked like there'd been an axe murderer at work in it, and [STRIKE]trashed[/STRIKE] cleaned the kitchen as best my wrists will allow.

At least my silver badger-stripe is now gone!:rotfl: I was horrified when the franchisee gave me my copy of Daisy's "official" holiday pic (the owners get a copy, so they can see their dog with the host looking after him/her) - the stripe was a lot worse than I'd realised!:eek:
