I fit in!!!! :j
Here was I thinking all you lot had houses that looked like no one lived in them!
My place is just a 2 bed flat, with myself, DH, DD and a whole herd of cats. I keep on top of most stuff, just not the 'finer' points, you know. I'm a terrible hoarder too....but ecently I've had a MASSIVE clear out and the place does look so much better. ...and easier to clean.

Glad to see you're sticking around willowpop x welcome to the mad house! :beer:
Dinner cooking away nicely, a couple more loads of washing done, TD going full blast and my winterdyke is filling up. Folded some more washing and put past. I've done homework with DD too. So once dinner is scoffed, packed lunches are made and the washing up is done I'm in my jammies with my knittingI'm actually shattered, I blame piggers:rotfl:

Wow, that's a lot of good you're going to do for charity Pigpen . They'll be very grateful, I'm sure.
I've spent the last few days taking 2 massive bags a day to the charity shop after work..there's no where to park near my local charity shop so it's easiest to walk there on my way home from work. Boyyyy books are heavy! It's petty much all moved on now, a couple of bits hanging around perhaps, but nothing too much.PAYDBX 2016 #55 100% paid! :j Officially bad debt free...don't count my mortgage.

You are a bit confused its just a slight breeze and a wee shower, Scottish summer at its best :rotfl:I'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged0 -
Evening all. Welcome Willowpop. Hello Bossy, 'course you're working....
Today I've been shopping for a shed, got the washing and ironing up to date and planted some cucumber seeds. Other than that, limited dailies and lots of food prep and washing up.
Catch you all tomorrow probably.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Welcome Willowpop. Just to echo what everyone else says we are all about support and encouragement here. I for one am happy to spend time supporting and encouraging others rather than actually getting on with it myself.
And Pigpen well done on the charity pile. Very impressive.
Have spent this afternoon doing paperwork and making phone calls to various organisations involved in DSs care. I cant believe where the time has gone.
Everyone fed, a few buns made for pack ups, washing on the airer (pouring down and freezing cold out). Off to put the dry washing away and answer some e-mails about job no. 2.0 -

Oohh me too. I'm really encouraging. And really lazy. Welcome Willowpop, newbies and returners.
I have actually put away lots of things, but I don't know if putting away 2 baskets worth of washing counts. And had to do a hasty tidy of all the pre-holiday stuff my brother and I had spread round the lounge before my student came. Now I suppose I've got to put her paperwork in order. Sigh.
Have been to Ald1, come home and done half an hour with mini trampoline, weights and floor then had a shower. Now food. Rest of eve will be spent organising paperwork for tomorrow's interview, and hopefully get a bit more of a report written.Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.0
