    Tatty DS1 and I were having the same conversation about it feeling like autumn this morning.

    Sammr welcome home

    Washed up, put laundry away, had a quick tidy around.

    Had an email from the cousin I 'found' earlier this year and he is keen to meet up in the near future, this is very exciting for both of us.

    Right quickly to the shower room for cleaning and then I need to get a wiggle on and some warm clothes on by the look of outside. I think this weekend will involve moving the log piles around ready for autumn fire lighting.

    Good Morning everybody and thank you for the lovely welcome.

    Finished my home work last night and plan to de-clutter it this morning.

    Also plan to de-clutter my part-time job today, a sad decision but decided life is too short to worry and it's time to move on.

    Plan to have a day at home today so hope to get plenty done.

    CY How's you honey?
    :hello::hello: welcome/welcome back to all the newbies and returnees.

    DGS ended staying last night again as his mum and dads flight was delayed. He's not long away home. He slept brilliant last night from about 8pm till 6.30 this morning. Took his bottle went straight back to sleep and never got up till 8.45 when his dad arrived. :D

    So far today I have...
    Packed up DGS 'stuff' and decluttered it away with his dad. It's like a flitting all the things wee ones need. I'd forgotten!
    Tidied his toys away.
    Decluttered money to ebeast for DGSs birthday present and a new circular needle for me.
    Sorted DS2s Xbox and cleaned the discs that weren't working but are now!

    I'm thinking of decluttering a nanny nap as I'm working later. ;)

    Today is not going to plan! I've taken DS to summer school, had 1 new tyre and 1 tyre repaired on my car and walked the dog. I need to go and see if they've got any paint at the tip and it's got to be today as they're closed Wed - Fri. DH wants me to pick up some car mats he's ordered and then I need to pick DS up from summer school and DD from her mate's. Car then needs to go to the garage but seeing as it's pouring with rain I don't fancy walking back - it's a 45 min walk so I don't know whether to find some paperwork and stuff that I can sit there for a couple of hours and do.

    What I want to do is stay at home and sort my BR and stuff out!

    Morning all! DW on, WM on, I'd already put one load on the airer last night so I'll have to get the other airer out as it's not dry. I was hoping the weather would stay dry but it's overcast again now :cool:
    One of the cats had peed on the bathroom floor during the night :mad: obviously I've clean up but really need to scrub the floor today.
    I'm slowly finding my bedroom floor :o so hopefully there'll be less to do in there on bedroom day :)
    I phoned my mum this morning and she's asked me to go to the bank for her today. I was hoping to pick DD2 up from our friends at the same time but she's just informed me she's only just woke up so I guess she'll be making her own way home.
    Well back to it . . .

    So not much done from the official lists then! But I have:


    Walked the dogs in the rain stopping at shop on the way
    Wiped some door frames
    WUDUPA
    Hoovered and swept upstairs
    Hoovered sofas and put on fresh throws


    Just having a quick break, will then hoover and sweep downstairs and mop all the hard floors before continuing with the door frames.


    Just had a phone call that my delivery won't be here till mid/late afternoon so I can do the prep for that after lunch.

    Spend less now, work less later.
