    Ironing done
    Mould cleaning in master bedroom, kids' room, bathroom and conservatory.
    Conservatory roof cleaned. I got myself stuck up ds1's bunk bed, I hadn't realised that he he has a lovely view of the wood so I just sat in the sunshine with Miss muddy paws until my back had eased a little.

    Doesn't look much but has taken most of the day apart from a 1&half mile walk with DS2 & DH

    Sunshine and showers day here.

    Can any of my flylady friends recommend makes of washing machines please? My Miele of about 12 years has lost the ability to spin. I need something reliable as I wash for 6... Any advice gratefully received.

    re the WM

    ask Piggers; she has two on the go - but my Bosch came highly recommended

    Evening all.
    I have tackled the master bedroom today and it s looking so much better. I dusted and hoovered the floor and then put all my piles back as we are still sorting stuff out! Hubby cleared his bedside drawers out which were full f paperwork and general cr*p!

    Also did another three Loads of washing, drying two on the line. It tipped it down first thing but was glorious after about 11am! This afternoon, we went for a walk around the local wier and then came back and the boys played in the garden. I gave them some chalk that I had bought ages ago and forgotten to give them! I am now a proud owner of a 1 -100 square hopscotch! :rotfl:Took them ages. Bless them!

    Two more loads of washing tomorrow and general tidying I think to make sure we are ship shape for the week ahead!

    Morning all

    CY congrat for DD1 and I hope DD2 finds another house soon.

    WM When my last miele died I went for Bosch, had it 3 months and I'm very happy with it so far.

    Off for a shower and then I want to get the kitchen straight, pop to Mr L and I must ring my Mum, not been in the mood for all her doom and gloom this week.

    Morning everyone

    Kaz your typo made me smile, did you take the horses down to the garage as well?

    Feeling a bit bleugh, very late night partying, although I wasnt drinking. Good fun though.

    Still wrestling with this business of my second job. I have got so used to working silly hours I feel a bit guilty at thought of not doing it - especially as we really need the money. Extra time at home will give me more time with DS though, especially as we are coming to terms with the idea that he may not be able to live independently for some time, if ever.

    Plenty to do here, bathroom still hasnt got done, washing and ironing to sort, landing and stairs could do with a hoover. Need to make a list for the supermarket.

    Have a good Sunday everyone x
