    Morning everyone! Thanks for the lists!

    Managed to do my 10 mins shelf declutter yesterday but still plenty to do.

    So far this morning:
    Towels in wash
    DW filled and kitchen wiped down
    Plumber called about leaky loo, waiting for call back

    Whoopee Wednesday: Bathroom
    Level 1
    [STRIKE]Let some fresh air in, pop the radio on[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Wash the sinks and loo, don't forget the pedestal [/STRIKE]
    Level 2
    [STRIKE]Clean the bath / shower[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Replace towels, sponges etc[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Wash the window[/STRIKE]
    Level 3
    [STRIKE]Wipe down the tiles[/STRIKE]
    Extras:[STRIKE]
    Wipe down the door and disinfect the door handle[/STRIKE]
    Menu plan to take us to pay day next week
    Sort out fathers day cards
    5 mins shelf declutter


    All the bathroomy stuff done in bathroom 1. Not sure if I'll have the energy to do it all again in the ensuite. Wiping the very dusty tiles down has exhausted me!

    Hi all

    ATOS nurse has been and gone. I think it went OK, she said straight away that she recognised traits of autism in DS and that he would score points but she couldnt say how many. Will try not to think about it now until the brown envelope arrives!

    So I have the rest of the day off. Going to update finance spreadsheets, do some paperwork shredding and general cleaning. Looks like rain.

    Pigpen sounds like you need to vent. Anything you can throw without injuring someone or damaging anything?

    Right, need to look at that bank balance and see how much is in the pot for the rest of the month.

    Would you belieeeeeve it? The NHS appointments system is down, so nobody can check my details :mad::mad::mad:

    Back to flying - at least I can see progress there.

    One WM load hung out and next load in. Downstairs, here I come. DH is due home before 12.15... won't hold my breath!

    haha.. no, it's checking to see what am I doing and making sure I'm not just sat on the bed playing candy crush or asleep! And hiding from the naughties!

    pigpen if you did hugs I would send copious amounts of hugs to you.

    Anniversaries can be horrible reminders. Sometimes I wish we didn't have calendars and all the reminders of lives past. We all think you are smashing and want you here with us.
    ^ ^ ^ Wot she said. Piggers fwiw you've hauled me back out of the black hole of despair more than once, for which I thank you; and you know what they say - if brains was a disease, all men would be healthy! (Apologies to any FlyGents).

    I agree wholeheartedly about calendars, too - I have a "difficult" day coming up in eight days' time.:( Unfortunately I won't have a doggie here to get me through it, either, as Patch will have gone home by then, and my next guests don't arrive til 3rd July.

    I have managed to wash the bathroom mats, and get them dry. :T

    Mr LW has requested cheese salad for dins (to be fair, I asked him "what sort of salad shall we have tonight?" :D ) so that'll be easy to just throw together.

    Would it be awfully selfish of me to sit and do an hour's cross stitch this afternoon, d'you think?:o

    Me time was on today's list LW so go for it, ( technically it was using up a bathroom product but you will be using up some threads and if it brings you some peace and enjoyment go for it.

    My full day at work turned into half a day, so I'm kicking my heels trying to decide if to do something off the lists, decluttering some stuff for. The attic or take my crochet out into the garden.

    :D I already had my bath today (Mr LW assists me, so it has to be before 07:15) and tbh, I bathe to get clean, not for "me-time"; so cross stitch it is, then.:o

    Grab your needles, Piggers. ;)
