Well the WM is on, I'm dressed and I'm just going to go upstairs with a bin bag. It's still misty here but I'm hoping the sun will be out when it clears so I think the dog can go for a walk in a bit.

Packed DH and DS1 off to work, recycling bagged and out, 1st wm load out on line, gathered up glass and batteries for a recycling trip later. Have a couple of phone calls I need to make once places open.
A bit has fallen off DS2s brace so might need to get an appt about that.

DR table is now clear - that was a job and a half - I managed to keep it clear for quite a few weeks after Christmas but then it started getting cluttered again. It's because the DR is the first room you come to when you come into the house as the previous occupants bricked up the door into the LR from the hall so to get to the LR you have to walk through the hall, DR and kitchen. There's no chance of hiding anything away in this house - everyone sees the mess! There's still loads of stuff on the DR floor though that needs clearing.
Any ideas for shoe storage? There's a shoe rack in the conservatory but because the conservatory is so cold all through the winter DH leaves his shoes in the DR, under the table if the leaves are up so they are out of the way but I'm thinking if the leaves are kept down when not in use then the table won't get used as a dumping area. I'm thinking if I just say put them along the wall by the radiator the kids will continue to dump their coats, bags, PE kits there as soon as they come in through the door instead of taking them upstairs like they're supposed to.
Anyway enough of my rambling, the WM has finished but the fog hasn't lifted yet so I'll hold on before I put it on the line. I'll do another HHC in the DR I think and then I'd better take the dog out.NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

Morning lovelies :wave:
Been a while since I postedhope everyone had a lovely weekend. It was busy here so nice to be all back to normal today, got work soon but ive already got the wm going, fixed the washing line cos it snapped, moved my LR furniture around (I cant half faff abaaaaaaaat) and im just having 5 till I go and unload the DW......
....and if I dont get anything else done I MUST take the piles of clean washing upstairs theyve been hovering around for a week and I keep moving them instead of taking them up, nutter that I am!
catch ya later xx0 -
I want the tiles neutral because while the kitchen has been blue for 9 years that doesn't necessarily follow it will be forever! so.. I'm going grey and black intermingled with a LOT of white or cream.. I cannot decide.. is cream too non-neutral? What if I paint it all magnolia!? (Like never!!)
Nowt wrong with magnolia. My whole house is painted throughout with it. Ok my house lacks imagination but at least its clean.:rotfl:This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

Mine is 'Barley' for the most part .. posh magnolia lol.. but the kitchen is blue.
Lynne.. that is what I was thinking about with the tiles.. white ones have a public toilet look about them.. but cream is so hard to match unless it is completely the same.. I'm a geek, I've been doing this for the last 9 years.. in my tile-less kitchen!
