Still working through my clothes - all my drawers now done so I'm going to tackle my wardrobe.

Valli

Car washed - and it wasn't too unbearable as I was standing in the sun - however i did use hot water :rotfl:
I've also picked some weeds from the garden and planted the strawberry I rooted - and left on the garden so there were loads of roots in the soil:rotfl: and picked up some cat poo, too.
This weed I have - it's a small one with tiny white flowers (when it flowers) but OH! the bloomin' thing fires seeds everywhere when it's touched...so I figured if I could lift some now, and keep chipping at it I just MIGHT stop it resetting.
I've ironed the stuff that was dry and this means I can get today's ironed later. It's still dry and bright here so the washing's still outside blowing!

Cottage pie base prepped. Rhubarb chopped and cooked in preparation for a crumble at teatime.

Just having a cuppa and a little peek at NCIS. Need to do ironing, but really want to go to sleep.

The ironing's done! Now to fold all the socks and pants. Then I can try and clean up today's carpet devastation from the dog. Filthy muddy prints all through the house. DH walking woofer. Dd at cadets and DS has been made to help me as he complained constantly about going out to walk the dog with DH so DH refused to take him.
Kids are driving me insane at the moment. DD started a humdinger of a row last night about her jobs. 7 jobs I gave her and she blew up. Then I blew up.
