Morning all, sorry I'd didn't check in yesterday. We accepted an offer on our house yesterday but won't hear until next week whether we are all go. We were relieved that there were no viewings this weekend. So yesterday I pulled everything out of ds1s rammed warderobe only to get a phone call at 5pm to say the people who had put the offer in wanted to come and view again today! Humph! So not only normal tidying to got ds1s bedroom to do. Wish I hadn't started that. Anyway, going to give up on the lists this week and start a fresh on Monday. I will still be flying but off list as I have a busy weekend viewing new houses!Grocery challenge-

Great news about the offer, Frizzle! Just stuff everything back into the wardrobe if necessary...
More emails to send this morning but my wireless keyboard has been playing up again; hope new batteries (again :eek: ) will solve the problem
WMx1 of 4 started
Whole house needs quick clean - visitors coming tomorrow. DH has offered to hoover :A
Choir rehearsal this afternoon and concert this evening
Keyboard seems happier now
Hope everyone has a good weekend x0 -
Morning all. I have done this so far today:
Remove everything from the fridge, meal plan, wipe the inside, wash out the drawers, wipe the door seal, check the drain hole is clear - put stuff back, with stuff to use first at the front
And done a meal plan for the week and sent the shopping list to DH.
Kaz - enjoy the wedding
Lynne - glad you enjoyed your holiday apart from the cards bit
Wendy - good news on DD, its great once they're mobile
Next for me this morning is watering plants and checking my numerous vases of flowers (DH again), washing up the breakfast dishes. I plan to walk the dogs (only short, slow walks now unfortunately), sort recycling, get in the greenhouse (the weather is too damp to be properly outside) and bath the dogs later. Will probably just quickly hoover downstairs today.
And of course there are newspapers to be read, and puzzles to do.
Have a great day everyone.

2x WM and 1x TD while OH was playing his board games last night. I got to watch iplayer trash
the same 3 appliances running this morning.
DD2 had a fling.. 2 binbags of clothes and 6 of rubbish.. from her 7ftx6ft room!!!!!!!!! Squeaky door dealt with, I got the WD-40 out to assist with DD2's cleaning so decided hinge spraying was a good idea.. no more squeaky doors!!!!
it is raing here at the moment so my 2 loads hung out last night are still wet.. if not wetter than when I hung them out.
OH's old tv decluttered to my friend has left a dirty space in the back room that is to be dealt with shortly and I am going to be listing 2 of my pushchairs for sale later... and I need to speak to KH about having the pinks over easter.. we need to go to OHs mums at some point so have to arrange lots of stuff to enable that.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
Easter holidays have arrived! Yay!!!! Coursework deadline is Tuesday. Eek. So minimal flying until then.
Went on boss's leaving do last night. Table booked for 8pm but we didn't start to order until 8.45!!! And we couldn't just go to the bar and sort our own drinks we had to order from the waiter. Food was nice, but it could've been so much better. Home by 11, which was fine by me. I'm quite happy to admit that nightclubs and drinking in bars has never been my scene.
Loved the flowers Ionafan. Sorry to hear that bossymoo. Life can be very cruel.
Just me and DH in today. Washing up done. Just about to stir myself and shove a washload on. Then it's coursework all the way today.
Hope everyone has a good day.:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
