Thank you for all the sticks for the BD......I didn't manage to get the rubbish out for the binmen on Thursday night due to the BD. With DD2 and DD3 help I managed to get to my Group BD appointment albeit 30 mins late (I did ring to apologize that I was having a struggle)....DD4 and DS had a lovely time in the local ball pit/indoor slide centre with DD2 and DD3 on young Skint duty. Took youngest Skints to see their Dad in evening before driving through TOWIE town to Stansted, DD1 flight was due in at 11.20 but due to a pothole in the runway at Stansted there was talk of the plane being diverted to Luton or Gatwick .....after a lengthy delay her flight did go to Stansted but the one before hers was diverted...got back to the Skint Pitz yesterday just before dawn broke.....so lost most of the day staggering like a Zombie.....a very late night visit to Mr T saw me whoopsie sticker hunting bunches of bananas 29p and raspberries 10p, cucumbers 9p were my best bargains.....but by the time I was nearly ready for the checkout the BD was biting my leg, and my raspberries were leaking and I had a checkout operator with OCD who was wiping his hands every two seconds so between me and him it took 40 minutes to get through the checkout....DD1 was good and put frozen bits away when I got in, then this morning DD1, DD3, DS and I got to work on the 10 bunches of bananas and 20 punnets of raspberries and other goodies......there are now plenty of portions of vegan icecream ready to whack in the blender at a moments notice, I have made a weeks worth of frozen mixed fruit and veg bags (minus nuts and seeds which will go in the blender after the first blitz) ready for DD1 and I to get back on the 50% raw food diet.
Kitchen has had a good blitz with steam mop today, crevices on cupboards, plastic strips on the kick boards, stainless steel, inside the oven to get the worst off....and steam mopped the floor. All the bins in the house emptied and recycling sorted and out front ready for next week without fail. Bins all disinfected and steam cleaned. Downstairs loo had a steam blitz too and a quick buff around, rest of downstairs hoovered with my new fake Dys0n v@x.
DD1 did a washing hunt and bunged in Utility, and set DW off 3 times today and done the cooking for everyone so I could get on with other bits.
Ventured out of back door with pressure washer to wash back windows and patio of the mess left by Cowboy roofers from earlier in the week and blasted some green mold off the back render while I was at it.....hopefully I will clean up around the side tomorrow and maybe bribe DD1 or DD3 to do the front.
Tomorrow I am going to hoover my mattress and try a peroxide mixture on it to try and get it looking more presentable so I feel happier with it when I have to change the bedding. I must just get this years Spring Cleaning complete by .........ooooooo New Years Eve :rotfl:right....a quiet brew, some R&R then bed....see you on the new thread :wave:The cold never bothered me anyway0
