Morning all.

Lynne, hope the foot is feeling a bit better this morning.

CY and Ionafan, enjoy your meet in York.

I'm just on here while I'm waiting for DD and her boyfriend to pick me up for a day out. Have already taken the dogs for a walk, hoovered downstairs and washed the breakfast dishes.

Have a great day everyone.

So I have finished thursdays list and just about completed my music magpie order. Just want to check there are no others in the car before I tape it up. Loads of CDs mostly ranging from 1p to30p each. I did have a couple that were £1! But add them all up and it has come to 26£ and we don't listen to them so glad they are gone! Now what to do with the leather effect cd rack?

This morning I have wudupa, cleared the kitchen and wiped the sides again!, cleared the ironing pile, written down what is the freezer and written a menu for next week.

Oh, had a phone call from estate agent this morning about the viewing at lunchtime! The agents has suggested keeping the house on the market until we know the guy who we accepted the offer from is serious! Only thing was we didn't know anything about the viewing and my house looks like a bomb has hit as we are sorting out and starting to pack things away! I can't get it sorted in an hour so they are going to rearrange!

Hello all. DD2 had a friend to sleep last night, they were still giggling and messing about at gone midnight. I didn't mind but the friend had to be at work for 9 this morning so was worried she wouldn't get up.
DD2 and I dropped her off and nipped to Mr A for some bits.
Before we had gone out Mr O&O messaged me to say he was coming to visit this evening so I've been running around trying to tidy up a bit
DD2 has gone out with her dad and brother, so several Easter eggs and the boy's birthday cards and money decluttered. They're going to meet up with DD1 and probably her boyfriend for breakfast/lunch.

Made a good start in the dining room, 3 corners done, 4th started. Table is now covered but that is ok, I will recommence on that tomorrow morning.

DH has touched up all the messy bits in the hallway, friend has done a good but not brilliant job. Still it is all done and much better now we have touched it up. My light looks so lovely.

Poor seedling out in the coldframe as kittens keep weeing on them, still it has given me an idea for having a small green house/lean to constructed there (DH will be delighted not).

Bit of hand sewing next with a cuppa before we head out for the rest of the day.

Back and I'm shattered. Back is killing me and I'm only half way through what I said I was going to do :cool:
Everyone's carp removed from living room. Girls stuff dumped on their beds and door pulled to. Mine has been put away and only one box of gibble shoved in the cupboard, I just don't have time for that today
A black sack full of rubbish removed from their room that they having been taking out for about a month :eek: :cool:
Upstairs cat litter emptied and trays soaking (I need a sit down ) Living room all vacuumed and units dusted over. 5 minutes sit down and the I'll vacuum the stairs and move upstairs.
I know that this all should be done over the week but the panic of visitors really does help :rotfl:
