Having done the dog walk, its started to rain, and I just can't be bothered to go out in the garden now. Good job I made a little progress yesterday.

Why do I find it so difficult to get round to letter and card writing? Frog being nibbled - one down, [STRIKE]seven[/STRIKE] eight, found another one that needs doing, to go.

Right, upstairs, has been hoovered, dusted, polished, scrubbed, rubbish down stairs, all washing down stairs.:T
Finally put to use the vacuum bags I bought, into 2 bags, we got 4 double duvets and 2 sleeping bags, goodness knows why I have never used them before. Said 2 pack bags are now in under bed storage area.
I'm going to pack my hoilday clothes that way, get more in the suit case!!
Shower scrubbed
Toilets scrubbed
OH has hoovered the whole house as well for me, as I dusted upstairs. Hangs head in shame we had to empty the dustless bag thingy 3 times as there was so much fluff / dirt / dust :o

Top soil bought
Bedding plants bought 4 trays for a £10, as I consider that a barging
Shopping on mrt done as well.

Mountsockmore sorted
Airing cupboard sorted, extra sheets etc put away.

A great heap of ironing has arrived from some where......................

All windows upstairs open to air the place

Iti s raining on and off here

Haven't got outside - watched Goodnight Mr Tom instead. I still haven't finished my BR but I've hoovered all the floor and dusted - just got to sort out the stuff that's on the bed and strip the bed now.

DS3 being a bit of a pita, bored so going to head out for a geocache I think so DS2 can revise without being wound up. I'll just put WM2 on the line first.

Lucky you! I have WM1 and WM2 spread between 2 A-frames over the bath and 1 L-frame in front of the dehumidifier.

We're just going to finish our respective cuppas (tea for Mr LW, coffee for me) and frog-march Ted into the back garden for some exercise. It's not as bad as it sounds; he'll come willingly as soon as he realises there are doggy-chocs involved.:D We've worked out a game whereby Mr LW and I stand at opposite ends of the garden, and Ted runs from one to t'other and receives a doggy-choc for each length of the garden he runs. We can't take him out in the normal way, as he cannot be around other dogs. Even muzzled, it would be extremely stressful for him, us, and any dogs we met on the way, so this is a viable alternative to get him moving a bit.:o

My theory is if I do it well while I'm off work it might be easier to keep on top of it when I'm back at work!
Looking forward to tomorrow's challenges! How sad is that! Thanks to everyone who runs this thread!

Beds stripped, I've had my bath, juggled wash loads around, 3rd load is spinning now and DD's hayfever seems to kick off whenever I dry stuff outside atm so extra spin and into the TD for the washing today as its mainly bedding As soon as the blossom on the trees next door has gone I'll be able to dry outside again, there was no issue until it appeared.

DD has put polish on her school shoes which will be left to soak in for a few days Its usually a Friday night job but we have a full week this time :rotfl: I'm just hoping they'll last until the end of term! She's now trying to pick a colour for her bedroom feature wall which we can both agree on :rotfl:

Next to do, DD is on washing up duty until its all cleared and I'll get on with another job. Might do DDs other shoes I'll leave the sewing until later when she's gone to bed and I can watch my programmes while I do it.

:wave:

I feel as though a great weight has been lifted from my shoulders. Today's nine letters and cards brings it up to twelve after the three I did on Saturday. I've been meaning to write some of them for four years, so the 'welcome to the world, baby' are a bit late. Better late than never though.
